Let's get this one started early.

The release date for Super Mario Galaxy 2 has been confirmed for July 1. Seen a great deal? Want it cheap? Hit up our SMG2 Price Roundup Thread.

Price round-ups are forum discussions that let the community track   prices and trade  in offers for upcoming releases. It is an opportunity   to share trade in exploits, point out online sales, reveal broken  street  dates and  helps reduce work for staff so that we can have more  frequent round-ups.

This game is available as a 3-4-1 preorder trade @ JB. Saw the flyers at the Artarmon Store in NSW. If your store isn't advertising it ask them as it should be available in their system. Other games available for 3-4-1 promo but not advertised yet on their website include Modnation Racers and Crackdown 2.

Some Trade Bait that you can use for SMG2 from EB's current sale include:-
*PO-Zack & Wiki - $13
*PO-My Word Coach - $13
*PO-No More Heroes - $20
*PO-Mushroom Men Spore Wars - $20

TheHut.com for GBP 32.73 (~AUD 55)

I'm looking at ordering from the UK as it's release is June 11th vs our July 1st. UK games should work fine on Australian PAL Wii consoles.

In fact, if you look closer at your Aussie Wii discs you'll realise they're just UK ones, but repackaged.
Anyway, what's with that ****ty release date?  Europe gets it earlier than that.  Time to import it from 365games, methinks.

We're getting screwed as punishment because the last time a Mario game was released, it was released first in AUS, and was promptly uploaded to be pirated.

We had our chance to lead the release date schedule and (*&'ed it up.

Fair enough.  Didn't think of it like that.

I guess I'll be importing. I would've bought it locally but with the release date for Australia now being July 1st, I may as well get it faster and cheaper too. Best I can find is, as Grim-onE already posted, TheHut's ~$55.

Just looked at the price from cdwow! - it's listed twice, one for $67.95, and one for $102.95... The more expensive one doesn't have a region stipulated, but the cheaper one says it's a PAL version. Oh, and free shipping. Makes it a bit cheaper and a bit easier than importing directly from The Hut, which I've been meaning to do but am now rethinking.

Ive found with CDWOW that when this happens, they more often than not cant fulfill the order, and send you all sorts of apologetic messages....take care, as this is classic "bad" CDWOW behaviour.

"Good" CDWOW is when they have it in stock etc........

Anyways, best pricing seems to be circa $68-$69 now that theHUT has corrected its price to be on par with rest.
