This is pretty normal. I can't log-in either and I ordered way back in July.
Don't panic. Their site is just HORRIBLE.

Hell, I'm logged in always... There's no way for me to log out of their site XD

pretty sure NISA has always run their store themselves and we've just seen the progression of them getting better at it

It seems to be a trend with BamCo. Their LE copies of games seem to always be more luxurious with color treatments and such.
I called my GameStop and apparently my name isn't on the list of preorders that get a Steelbook. I preordered while the damn thing was still up. This is a trend with my terrible GameStop. I'm probably done with them.
What about those of us who ordered back when preorders first opened up (I think it was back in June)?
Our orders are safe, correct?

indeed.
Unless you need to change your payment method, they're safe.
Ok, good.
Also, I've never had anything shipped from Digital River. Do they give a tracking number when it ships? Or at least notifies you when it ships?

Where from? I'm waiting on them to become available at Amazon.

↑ be warned, if the associate adds the steelbook premium sku to the receipt, they will more than likely ask for the steelbook back if you do return..

it's actually an online order, but i'll keep that in mind.
They charged me two days ago. I paid with PayPal's Bill Me Later. I guess that means I'm getting a copy.

Did you preorder in the summer?

I have been charged and paid in full with paypal, and I preordered this week.

Ah, I preordered like 4-5 months ago. Paid with debit card and had a temporary hold placed only card. Nothing will be open for shipping on 1/21 so I don't think namco/digital river will start charging and shipping orders till 1/22.

Oh shucks. I interpreted their on site notice as they had made their collectors editions available yet. Oh well, the game itself will suffice.
LOL!
What my wife doesn't know...
Actually she doesn't really care. I'm not the type to spend money on stuff unless I know I can afford it so she doesn't really think about it when I buy stuff like this.
I'm hoping it ships the 22nd or 23rd.
This was covered way back when Ninostarter started I'm pretty sure all Paypal orders took it out immediately, CC authorizations just dropped off. At this point no CC purchase's have been charged so no reason to worry.
Just came to post this. Hopefully they free up for some who missed out!
I preordered within six minutes it became available last week.
They probably will just move it to a new order since they over sold if the rumors are true. Who really knows.
That's what I meant. Hopefully someone who is in the cut off zone gets their order fulfilled now

Hope they didn't over do it to much it sucks because this round of orders probably is some big fans of course if they screw over a few scalpers that would be nice.
Same. I hate scalpers. Although from what I've seen on eBay the scalpers got in on the first round anyway.
I'm still expecting my regular order to get cancelled eventually anyway though since I had to fudge my billing address (I'm overseas). I have a backup but if I end up with any spares they will be going straight to huge Ghibli fans here in NZ!
Which I think is actually better for people rather than worse assuming they didn't have a pre-planned limit: more people pre-order, more get produced, and they even serve a service in giving people a third chance! Versus people who just swoop in on a very limited stock at the expense of people who wanted the WE at least when they placed the order. On that note, can't really resent scalpers who are just people who changed their minds, you go for something, realize you don't really want it, and may as well see what you can get for it.

My preorder from the Nampo store got a 99 cent charge and refund. No email.
cheststrongwell
my cake, fuck off
What time did you order it?
Is that good or bad? I just checked nothing on mine. Would be nice if they actually shipped tomorrow or release day.

A charge and a refund sounds like an authorization charge.
I wish mine had been $.99 back when it happened. Hehe.
