SSBB was released to the Japanese public yesterday to open arms, and outrageously long lines. In fact, so many people bought the game… that a shortage is sweeping the region. So what is a SSBB fan to do?… turn to eBay of course.

For a mere $242.50 you can have your very own copy of the game. Currently the listing has received 19 bids… and with 2 1/2 days left you can bet that the price will climb much higher. The seller also warns us of the following…

Game is NTSC, but unless you have a Japanese region or region-modded Wii, I cannot guarantee that this game would work (such is the price of being an early adopter!!)

Do you think that the United States will see the same shortages as Japan is seeing now?
