Man if anything happens tell me because I pre-order from them too!!!

They may have it, you might just have to call them to find out what this means.

hey, no problem man...i have off work today so I plan to check periodically throughout the day. One can only hope!!!

When did you make the pre-order? My wife pre-ordered 8/24, and it still shows "waiting for product"...

After investigating a little further, I found out this to mean that the order is now being prepared for processing. Does this mean they actually have it now and are getting ready to ship it? or merely acknowledging my order and getting it ready (and they don't REALLY have it?) just wondering...

I just checked my pre-order and it says it's "open" as well. Oh by the way falling2pieces, is that guy in your avatar from a wrestling game on the NES?

I placed my order about two weeks ago or so. Yes, that pic is from the nes game, pro-wrestling and his name, I believe, is Star-Man or something.

Just checked my order and it is also "open". If you click on it then you get this:
For pre-order/backorder items: Order will be processed when item arrives.
So it just sounds like they have all the official things out of the way. Once the game arrives on the 4th (or sooner I hope ) it'll be shipped.

true. but if you remember from when you first placed the order, it would've said pre-ordered, waiting for product to arrive in that little box. Mine now says open. It doesn't say waiting for product to arrive...hmmm

I ordered my copy from EB games and they got it today but(ther always has to be a but)they can't ship it out till the 4th

how do you check on your pre-order status? Cuz I also reserved it at EB Games

look near the top of the page for the button that says my order, click, and the rest should be obvious...

They probably got it and they are getting all pre-orders processed so they don't have to process them all at the same time. They probably won't ship it till the day it's out(October 4th) though. For example, that happened with my pre-order of Star Wars Trilogy on Amazon; a week before the release my Order Status went from: "Being Processed" to "Shipping Soon" which means, getting ready for processing. However, they shipped it the day it was supposed to come out.
So I think that's probably it. Don't worry anyway, if you pre-ordered, you'll get it shipped as soon as it becomes available.
