The release date was slightly later than expected, which is likely to be bad news for the struggling game retailer. Microsoft's (NASDAQ:MSFT) new Xbox is also expected to come out around the same time.
Meanwhile Target (NYSE:TGT) announced it is planning to help TRU Kids relaunch its Toys R Us website, which would provide another avenue for customers to buy video games.
