Fuck that, I'm making my own. I have plenty of dry macaroni, glue and glitter to go around.
Well, this time they'll be coming in a nice little pvc box, rather than bubble wrap, so things will look snazzy
ahhh

got a XL and Vita.
Which version?
Are they similar enough that I should just flip a coin?
Are the puzzles in this game still touch screen based?

Canada got screwed again?
I NEED ONE OF THEM GREEN WATCHES.

We're still cool, Akselziys.
It ultimately depends what you're looking for
But yes, the puzzles are touch screen based~
Aww <3
Maybe you can try using a middleman like suggested above? MyUS I believe was mentioned.
Also, the watches are black, but the LED color of the watches will be red, blue, and green.
The color LED you get will be random

Cool. Coolcocool. Now I'll be able to wear it without the constant fear of it coming loose and falling to the ground.

I'm destined to not get one of these damn watches. Canada got boned on the 999 watches, why not VLR too.
I'm in a real pickle about picking the platform for this one. Vita is my favourite handheld, but I think my 3DS is underrepresented in the games department (pretty much the only permanent fixture in my 3DS library is OOT3D, with a few other games coming and going as and when I get bored of them), plus the 3DS version would look nice next to my copy of 999.
I am actually crippled with indecision here and I'm pretty much going to flip a coin over it at this rate. But what a nice dilemma to have, huh?

I'm assuming you switched it a long time ago but every time I see you post, it makes me said there's not Jubei.

Haha, I hate you now. The random will make me spend more than I should on ebay for one of each.
Have you used their service before? Do you know around how much it would cost? Checking their calc thing says something like $30 =/
I never managed to get the 999 watch, so I'd held out hopes I might do better this time. Instead I get this message. Again.
When Amazon said they'd send me games so long as I paid them faux-import/export tax I was actually happy, yet the times I've actually tried to order something it seems to fall through. Some games can't be sent out of the US, and sometimes even when it says they can be shipped to some countries outside the US, the UK seems out of bounds.
Most recently I had no luck with Ragnarok Merc. (although oddly they can send me Ragnarok standard, which has the exact same shipping description), and now it's the same for VLR w/Bonus
I wish there was some way to tell what "This item is also available for shipping to select countries outside the U.S." actually meant so I wouldn't get my hopes up, especially as it isn't the same every time it's used.

Very cool, was hoping we would get this. Amazon is my sole source, so works out for me. Sorry for others.

Awww... I really liked the "solid block of steel" one for 999. Made it feel expensive.
Also, Amazon does tax now? Sucks.
Several states are still tax-free but California was added to the list of states that are taxed just a couple of days ago.

Meh. Importing from the States through a middleman ain't worth it, imo. I'll live without the watch.
My only hope is that Canada gets it during the same week as the States, because with smaller publishers we usually have to wait a week or two after the US gets it. I don't want to be spoiled at all. >:|

Wouldn't Aksys do the same kind of thing they did with 999? As in, offer the watch on their own website/

I think they only did that cuz they had watches left over, lol. These watches look snazzier so I think people will be more apt to pick 'em up. Plus I think 999 is more recognized now than it was at launch.
Their store doesn't ship to Canada, either.
If you really want it just watch eBay auctions after the game releases.

Those watches went for like $100-150 on eBay though lol.

Sad it's an Amazon exclusive. Nothing against Amazon, but I already pre-ordered from Newegg, and I don't want to give up that $10 off deal. Oh well.
Huh, you sure about that? My order still has me marked down as "standard" edition, not "pre-order" edition.

In the long run, that watch is probably going to cover that $10 and more.
On another note, all the retail sites have the release date at 10/24 or 10/23, was that ever confirmed or are we still looking at the vague "October 2012" or, according to the website, "Fall 2012"?

eBay. But you won't find one for less than about $200.
EDIT: Beaten like I stole somethin'.
When did you order? I put mine in back in March.
Yeah, I figured as much. I'll send them a mail.

So Canada is being left out again? And we can't even order it from Amazon.com.
*sigh*
I thought we were past this.

Do you happen to live close to the US border and have access across?
Essentially, you might be able to work something out where you get it shipped to a Fedex office or UPS Store or a local authorized ship center that is close to you and have them hold it for you for a fee or something.
Just a thought.
Sure there might be a little risk involved, but with Prime (or even without it) as long as you pay for a shipping service you will get a tracking number and such.

Crossing boarders for a pre-order watch is a bit extreme.
I'm just surprised that we are still coming across situations were Canada is being left out of certain bonuses. It's pretty disappointing.

Is it actually a watch? Because all I keep seeing is the word "bracelet" on the official stuff. Maybe I'm

Cool. Preordered.
Also you guys (aksys or whoever) should really mention "watch" on the page somewhere.

Let us know, I'm in the same boat with a vita version. Just re-ordered in case, but I'll cancel one of them.
At first I hoped you were joking, but nope. I literally put it in my cart but didn't check out because I wasn't sure if I wanted to buy an extra copy to mail to some unfortunate gaffer outside the US (at cost; I'd probably be willing to front shipping for a patient Canadian). Figured I'd stew on it over dinner and a few episodes of BTAS with my fiancé.
...and now I can't even order one for myself. Lol
