The VGP tracked shipping to Germany is pretty nice so I usually pony up the extra 5 CAD. But it definitely leads to obsessive behaviour. I try to not check more often than twice a day
Nope. Not jealous. Not at all.
Enjoy
Out of curiousity, were you hit with customs? Never used that shipping from VGP before.

I just went to check the shipping prices and there's no standard delivery with tracking for me. Just International Airmail and then DHL express and FedEx, both of them $40 more expensive than IA D:.

You know that Sony will brick your Vita if you play a game before its official release date, right?

Yeah VGP has custom options for different regions (which is overall pretty great tbh). Tracked shipping uses DHL Global Mail which probably has good rates to Germany or something.
At least it's not just FedEx. They're the worst.

Yian I took your advise and chose tracked shipping. This game better be here by Friday or else...I know in which country you live...
I was a bit worried because of that as well, but the package went through fine.
vgp declared a value of 25 CAD with no invoice inside.
I'm kind of shocked that this works every time, the shipping alone was worth more than that lol.
I'm willing to take that risk.
No idea unfortunately, didn't get a tracking number. Or fortunately, I guess, now I can't obsess over its location every minute.
Should have taken the god damn express shipping though fuck me. Didn't realize the difference between CAD and USD is big and just went "80 fucking dollars for the game with express shipping oh HELL no" without realizing it would STILL be cheaper than buying a new game in Finland.
Wish I could rewind time.

It probably won't. I expect it next Monday. It could be end of this week but you'll have to be very lucky.
First rule of ímporting: Patience
Second rule: The game you want most will take longer than usual
Sweet. Would have been an extra 15€. If I knew that in advance I would have probably paid for it

Knowing my luck it will be delivered on Friday when nobody is at home. And then I'll have to wait until Monday to pick it up.It probably won't. I expect it next Monday. It could be end of this week but you'll have to be very lucky.

My VGP order is also still in Canada.
Gamer.nl. I expect my editor-in-chief to schedule it before the European release, though.
Mine is probably still in Canada too, then. Practically no chance of getting it this week in that case.
Holding out hope for next Monday.
e: now where's that CS2 OT, I need to go fling unnecessarily toxic shit on everyone who's already got their copy so I can feel even more miserable

My original plan was to wait. But now that FF15 got delayed I have nothing else to play.
Yeah, I will probably wait. I absolutely don't want a physical copy and I want to play on my Vita with my EU account, so there I go.
I must say two things. First, I'm immensely psyched to read everyone's impressions and hope you'll end up loving the game as much as I do. Second, I'm equally jealous you'll be able to play the game with XSEED's localisation. If you use Twitter and share your impressions there, please use #ColdSteel2 (as suggested by Endless History) so people can either mute the tag due to spoilers or, in my case, have all your impressions in a single timeline.

I'm waiting as well, currently in the middle of my Nightmare run
Waiting as well. I start college again next Monday and I wouldn't have time to
study
I forgot this was already coming out in the US and now the Vita version is already sold out on VGP. Darn.
Do we know already whether or not the European version will be compatible with an US clear file of ToCS1?
It's not compatible (without tinkering).

I'm tying my NG+ and wanted to know if the special someone you select in CS has any incidence on CS2.
Typically, I've read somewhere that
had bonus scenes at the end of CS but to me, the canon paramour is obviously
. So if this has any bearing, I'll try to watch the former's scenes but make a save with the latter.

I'm definitely not. My VGP Vita copy probably won't come in time, but hey, I'm buying digital on PS3 so that shouldn't be an issue.
Everyone has a bonus scene at the end before the credits based upon
who you choose to dance with after the festival
Sara, Towa, and Crow
Though there's technically no canonical choice, I'd agree that it's pretty clear that the game favors

I'm waiting since I prefer to buy the local version. I only import when the game doesn't release over here, or has issues such ae Virtues Last Reward not getting English Audio in Europe. Besides my brother is getting married in October so that and other things means I'd be too busy to play much anyway. Heck I'm probably delaying my Neo purchase for the same reasons.

I see a few of you guys already have the game. I hope you guys enjoy it.
I'll probably wait until after my RE4 and CSI playthroughs to get this one. Well, at least that's the plan, unless I get very hype about CSII and decide to jump right in it with my first save file.

Nah, sorry. I usually don't play FPS titles and certainly don't do much MP. Though, It's good to know that there is a skilled B1 player out there who is also a DMC fan
You fucker

LMAO. He was more clever than you lol.
Rice balls.
Knowing that had I not been a cheap idiot I could be playing the game literally right now makes it even worse
That's perfect

What I had in mind was a NG+ specific bonus scene
that takes place if you choose Emma for the ride to Heimdallr. Apparently, in NG+, Vita has more lines in this scene afterwards and comments on witches.
I don't know if there are more scenes than that.

I'll be at my Gamestop to pick it up right at 10am (same one I used to work at where I got 3 people on staff to play the first game after I quit XD) god hard to believe its finally here, I'm trying to not let my hype explode but its really really hard!
That's pretty much it. It's basically a little teaser for Cold Steel II, so not terribly relevant anymore at this point in time.
No, not remotely. At that rate you might be done on Friday night.
