Got an order in at Gamestop, we'll see what happens. I'd prefer Best Buy, so I'll keep an eye out for that,
 
For the fucking love of all that is good and mother fucking holy, what the ever loving shit is wrong with GameStop? Jesus fucking Christ.

Every time I try to buy from them it's a fucking farce. I just had about literally 1-2 dozen ridiculous issues, but the final one is that I literally can't buy it now because I have an existing cancelled order for it (which exists because of more bullshittery), so it keeps auto-adjusting my order to zero units. BECAUSE OF A CANCELLED ORDER.

Seriously though. Every. Fucking. Time. The number of products I've been charged for despite cancelling weeks ahead, orders spontaneously cancelled on me, orders lost because they literally lied and told my information had been updated, etc.. It's fucking ridiculous. I can't remember the last time something DIDN'T happen.

same for me.

I'm really surprised Amazon STILL doesn't have it up.Before the Zelda Master and Special went up for order, they added images to the pages, and both were up within 20 mins of that. Here it's, who knows.

It being up on the website again could mean that they might have it available at retail today too.

Doesn't matter. Almost certainly won't be able to get to a store before it sells out. Especially if they pull the same bullshit they have in the past where they sell the entire allocation the East coast before other time zones even open.

I seriously cannot believe how shockingly inept this company is. Lost the FE Fates LE (before barely getting it a Best Buy) because they literally lied to me when I had them update my order information (something they inexplicably don't let you do on your own). They forced me into buying multiple other products that I had cancelled weeks prior to shipping, apparently just because, only to say "Sorry, we can no longer cancel this order" via email a week after delivery (happened at least twice now, wouldn't be SO BAD if it weren't for the fact they're like the only goddamn retailer I don't get free shipping for and won't refund shipping). Or other times where they've just cancelled orders for shits and giggles (Majora's Mask 3D LE). And now I can't place an order because a cancelled order exists. Incredible.

Of course if every Nintendo LE wasn't such a shit show I wouldn't even have to bother trying GameStop anyway. -_-

The reversible cover is only in the limited edition, is this true?

It looks to be that way. The reversible cover is only ever mentioned in reference to it, and they never clarify it's something all copies of the game will carry. So it probably is exclusive, I would guess.

The Amazon CA ran out. It lasted around half an hour. Dunno how it'll compare to US but just a heads up

Damn... I ordered from gamestop but im keeping my eyes open because i want the Amazon discount. Woke periodically during the night for ths game.

My terrible spring break sleeping schedule kept me up all night and yet I'm still going to miss this amazon preorder window lmao.

Ah well, if I can't get it I am pretty content with the SE.
 
I am satisfied with just my normal edition pre-order. If I happen to get lucky with a limited edition then great, but I am not going to tear my hair out for this one.

I'm a sucker for soundtracks and art books. Ideally I want to get an order through Amazon. But I at least managed to jump on the gamestop one this morning.

Are we all going to trample each other for this? I hope not! I'm having too much fun!

It's pretty neat and I'm in for one if I can get it without too much effort (see, monitoring this thread at work/at home), but fuck if I'm staying up all night or paying full price at Gamestop for it. The fact that there's a good chance I'll still be working through Mass Effect/Horizon when it comes out has a big part in it. Why spend extra money on an edition of a game that I probably won't touch until a month after it comes out?

If it were on GAF and CAGers, I wouldn't care. But now you got flippers and hoarders looking at this LE too, and some of these guys have bots and multiple accounts, so makes it tougher to land one. As long as you order within 5 min from being live, your assured one

In that case, yeah I guess for the individual.

Art book and soundtrack are things I listen/look at even way past a games release/playtime.

This reminds me that Summon Night 6, Utawarerumono: Mask of Deception, and FE:Echoes all come out within a few days of each other. So much tactical RPG goodness
