Here's a pic of my LE

It does say NTSC J on the front, but region-freeness has been confirmed for NA so far, so hopefully it'll be no problem for PAL and Asia.

Tried to preorder from Yodobashi tonight but they said they don't know how many they're getting in, so wouldn't let me. Will be there at opening on Thursday morning!

What do I do guys, Is LE sold out everywhere? Should I wait, or go for regular edition?
How much was the LE anyhow?

I wish I could play these kinds of shooters, but when there's that much on the screen bulletwise it gives me a bad headache and I faint. :/ Gradius 5 is too much for me and that doesn't have a bazillion shots coming at once.

Hmm, that sucks. I always kind of wondered why I'd never seen you mention playing it (seemed like something you'd like). Gradius V rocks.

Did any of the PS or PS2 Cave games get localized in the U.S.? I can't tell that they have, but I know there are people here who definitely know. I only really became aware of them at all through GAF.

LE is too much because of the shortage, haha. I'm fine buying the soundtrack apart form the game later down the line if need be, $50+ more is insane even for a Cave soundtrack. :lol

You guys realise that if you preordered from NCS, live in the USA and get it shipped by Express or 2/3day mail you will have it by saturday (friday if you use express), and EMS or Air Mail from Play-Asia can take anywhere from three to seven days... if you're lucky?

...just sayin'. Either way, I can't wait to get my hands on it! Hoping it'll make it here by saturday.

Stealth edit: NCS is shipping tomorrow, except for a third of their LE orders since their supplier didn't get it yet (read their news post). As far as their separate sites go, the old one isn't being used anymore; the old webshop was slowly phased out when they got the new site up and running, and has been completely phased out at this point.

I've been shopping with NCS for over ten years, LOL. I know too much about them... so old-school I do all of my orders via e-mail, I don't even use the web shop.

Yeah, I did UPS from play-asia, which usually takes two days, figuring I'd get it sooner than NCS but the holiday messes everything up. Now I'm not expecting my play-asia till monday (maybe friday, if lucky) and my NCS till next wednesday since it has to ship all the way across the nation. In either case, play-asia shipped a few moments ago. Not like I don't have a ton of other Cave games to play but this is the big release for the year...even moreso than Deathsmiles.

I did my part, ordered a couple of copies even though I've got systems from both regions. Hopefully this means Espgaluda 2 will be region-free as well. Can't wait for the Cave news in December.

usps express mail doesn't deliver on weekends where i live. ups shipping from play-asia usually takes about 2 days in my experience.

Thanks for posting that screenshot. Play-asia seems to be unreachable from my workplace... maybe they're getting hammered by people searching for their mushi order? :lol

I checked my mail and both my copies shipped today (one by UPS and one by EMS, from two different retailers). Now let's see which one will arrive first! :D

Uh, Thanksgiving?

I live about 30 minutes away from NCS so Ground usually arrives next day for me. But I'm still not expecting it until Monday because of the holiday.

Uh, it'll probably still make it? I usually manage to get stuff shipped Priority the day before turkey day on saturday. USPS Express will definitely make it since they do deliver on friday.

Here's hoping... 'cause my copy is on the way!

Looks like PA has pushed the price up since, $74.90 now, perhaps to counteract the $8 off coupon?

They did the same for other 360 titles like Death Smiles, too. Good thing I ordered this like two days ago.

Whoa, my order shipped today. I wonder how fast it'll get here with the cheap shipping I selected.

And here's hoping Espgaulada 2 gets a date and region free confirmation before the years end so I can use my $8 off code.

My order (2 copies) from Play-Asia shipped this morning. Going from every other time I've ordered something with EMS shipping it's taken, at most, 2 days and they deliver on the weekend. With Thanksgiving tomorrow I'm expecting it to arrive on Friday, possibly Saturday. :D

Gotta admit it looks much prettier in the flesh!

Looks as if NCS shipped mine as well. Sometime early next week since I'm in CA. But my play-asia copy is set to arrive friday morning for weekend fun!
