Is there a way to get a copy of NCAA Football 06 in Canada without buying online?

Yep, Peter_OS does business with them.

Why is it so hard to get games in Canada?

There is a rule made by the NCAA that the game must only be sold in the US. Major game companies like EB do not get NCAA because of it, but minor retailers do.

Everyone else, thanks for the info...I might go to VG Plus, as I remember them getting MLB '06 (or MVP, I forget) a day early. Also, since I live in Thornhill (around Yonge & Steeles), I believe it is the closest location.

Can you hook me up with the Younge and Steele location + phone number? If most companies will get the game on the 28th, there is a good chance Canadian Store will sell it before the 12th.

I completely stated that wrong...I meant the Wilson location was the closest to Yonge and Steeles. I used to get my games from a place called Video Games Plus (I think) at Steeles and 404, and that's where I got NCAA 2004. However, it closed last year.

Sorry about that. If I can get the game on the 28th...me = to the max.

I wish I lived in Toronto...Im in Nova Scotia and we have nothing like that..I ordered expediated shipping from EA because even though Ill be in Toronto it wont be until the end of July and waiting that long would just be insane..Hopefully they ship early

Out of curiosity, did anyone call any of the stores in TO and ask if they are getting the game in on the 28th? I would've phoned today, but I wasn't at home, and I'm not here tomorrow...
