Platinum Gamecube questions....

Anyone know exactly when the Platinum GC comes out? I read Nov. 4th I think....but KBtoys knew nothing of it (or the Mario bundle for that matter)...and its not on bestbuy.com or circuitcity.com.

Also, is this thing gonna be rare/hard to get? Im finally getting a GC very soon (already bought Mario), but am holding off to get the platnum one.

Yet another twist...just called Software Etc for the heck of it. The guy said I can preorder for $50 and it comes out this Saturday. He also said the Mario bundle w/ PLATINUM cube comes out that day...and that there IS NO BUNDLE WITH INDIGO. Im 99.9999% sure the ONLY bundle is with Indigo, and that came out yesterday...its even in some ads. Now I really dont believe his statement of the platinum cube coming out this saturday, then 19th.

Haven't heard of a Platinum bundle before. I wouldn't trust the employee on this one.

The bundle is only for INDIGO. My store has a release date in late Oct. for the platinum cube.
