I have to agree with you. Once you charge my card, then the processing phase should start.
Also I have no clue about the poster. GS CS told me they were shipping Thursday and the priority will fall on UPS/FedEx.

Bit worried by DPD parcel status. it still says: Sorry, your The Hut Group parcel has not arrived with us; we'll let you know as soon as it does and confirm it's on its way to you.
Hope it's not MIA.

Unless Nintendo does something to piss off Gamestop, they are probably going to be friends till the end. I will give Nintendo credit though in that the MP10 LE actually has decent stock and the Super Mario Amiibo will probably not be hard to get. Maybe they are learning. /s
Well, back in the days when I imported my Japanese PSP I got it shipped from China to Germany in two days via UPS global express. I had to sell my brother's liver just to cover the shipping cost, though.

woop mine is here!
I want US version and could you mention amazon link for new 3ds because i can't find it.
Weird, me too and it's not even being prepared right now.

Ah ok, Play-Asia is probably the way to go then since they focus on importing.
The price is a bit higher, but shipping is cheap: http://www.play-asia.com/new-nintendo-3ds-xl-black-paOS-13-49-en-70-8hx7.html
That is one of my cons. The others are that it is so glossy it reflects much light which is not subtle and gloss attracts fingerprints way too easily.
It is something to display but not really to use.
I know the orientation of the print makes the most sense when you look at it while it's closed but it still annoys me that the mask will be upside down while playing or while it sits in the charger...

Thanks for the info. I've raised a ticket with customer support now.
There will be UK stockists I'd imagine, but the price will jump up due to the import duty. You're unlikely to find it on, say, Amazon... perhaps through the 3rd Party marketplace, but not from them directly.
They give fair warning when you go to checkout that they can charge your card up to 10 days before release, as well as technically they have not charged your card, they only put a hold to make sure you have the money ahead of time.
I'm in the same boat and I'm anxious, but I was also well aware that they would probably do so.

For a few of us, the pending charge is no longer on our account.
Mine was there since last Friday, but was gone this morning.

For me the pending charge is not gone and the 300 bucks is out of my account. Its a bullshit practice that I've only run into with them. Every other place I've ordered from online or pre-ordered hasn't charged me till the item actually shipped. I can say I won't be ordering from GS ever again.
(edit) to clarify when I say the pending charge is not gone, its not a pending charge any more, its gone through and the money is theirs.

It seems like the red variant is more rare than MM. There's a total of like 4 images and 1 unboxing on the web. Need more pictures/impressions!
Awesome to see a Nintendo UK are shipping early! Was expecting them to ship at the very last minute, but cool to see they'd rather their customers get it before launch thañ after. The skull kid figure looks sweet! MM3DS looks cool, though imo the ALBW 3DS XL is better.
I got MH4U today, but now I really wish it was MM3D! Should be getting tomorrow hopefully!

It's only available in the US. Only street breakers in Europe have their systems so far.

Hmm, strange. The pending amount just went back to my account, I can't seem to find it in my transactions list. My order is still open, I'm not too worried just yet. Might contact them sometime after work if things don't go through today.

Depending on your bank and how long ago they charged you, it is 100% normal for a are authorization to fall off the account. They're meant to be temporary holds, and GameStop just took longer than the stated period to finalize he charge.

Yep, pretty happy with it.
I think the answer is no.
EDIT: 13 in queue with Gamestop chat. Just looking for reassurance.

I'm even more annoyed I cancelled that MM 3DS XL order now lol
Come on GAME ship my standard to make me feel better.

I don't understand import price inflation as well.Ebay much better but i don't know why Black n3ds cost 250$
Sometimes sites will raise up the price if they expect to not get that many copies.
However, once the console comes out you should get a reasonable price for it.

Just be aware: Being first in line at the door doesn't guarantee you anything. You'll have to sprint to electronics and grab/ask for a system.
Should be fun and lead to many stories of sprained ankles, black eyes and the such.
The lack of that new design is why I'm actually preferring the Black and Red 3DS models.
What is the line effect?

That will only be the case with me if they make a Fire Emblem LE that is really good.
I think we will see at least 1 or 2 more LE's before the next handheld.
Kind of concerned about my Best Buy order now. It hasn't been cancelled and says it has been processed and payment validated. It has said that for quite some time. But next to status, it says 'Status Not Available'. I have Meta Knights preordered as well and same thing, except status says pre-ordered.
Can anyone confirm if their Best Buy MM 3DS says the same?

This is exactly how mine looks.

From Amazon.ca, nothing for the LE of the game.
Me too. I guess i'll just expect it by next friday :/ New 3DS launch pushed back one week for me!
(at least MH4U will keep me occupied, i never used the circle pad pro on it, since I like the lock-on mechanic more)
Also, to all you guys/gals who have it already: BRB calling the jelly school.

"Status Not Available" appears usually before they update the status. Several of my amiibo went "Not Available" and freaked me out, but when I contacted them, they said they were being prepared for shipment. The next day or two, they were ready to go.
