So I woke up this morning to a terrific email from Amazon.
So I wandered over into the Persona community thread only to see that I'm not the only person who has received this email.
It looks like Amazon is cancelling both regular steelbook and the "Take Your Heart" Premium Edition.
I sent Amazon an email, but LiquidGabx talked to an Amazon rep and posted their response...
So I'm wondering if 100% of the PS4 orders are going to be cancelled? What is the defect, and how does this change the launch date? Do we have people from Atlus or Amazon here on the boards that want to comment?
MOD EDIT -Looks like we have a report on a Best Buy cancellation as well:
Never mind:
Update #3
AmazonEmail said:Hello,
Due to delivery restrictions on your order #redacted, we won't be able to send you Persona 5 - SteelBook Edition - PlayStation 4.
This is because this item contains regulated materials classified as dangerous goods and can not be delivered by Amazon. Although the amount of these substances in these products is usually quite limited, these products need to be transported in a certain way to ensure that they are handled with care.
Unfortunately, this means that we're not able to ship your order and it has been canceled.
We're sorry for any inconvenience and hope to see you again soon.

AmazonRep said:The actual reason why the order was canceled is that the entire inventory Amazon had received from the manufacturer had a major defect that was detected by one of our valued customer like you're and then an investigation began to check if all the items have the same issue and we had to cancel mass orders and return the item back to the manufacturer

MOD EDIT -
My Bestbuy Take Your Heart edition got cancelled.
Update: My order from Bestbuy was fixed. Apparently some system issue and not related to the "Amazon" incident. Thank jeebus.
Update #3
They specify Amazon, so I'm thinking it's specific to them.
