Its only Tuesday in the US, right? Don't other countries release dates vary?

I always heard it was a good medium between when various stores get new deliveries (a Monday delivery only store would miss the new release for the week) and ensuring that the first week of sales for the released product would include an entire weekend (including any Monday-holidays).
