still way too far away for some level-5 ghibli action.

 

[MrDaravon]

I really hate that pre-ordering from Namco's store takes the money immediately. I want this just because of the book, but I'm not able to devote those funds just yet. By the end of August is really pushing it.

Same here :/

 

[Gillian Seed]

I went ahead and just preordered through Paypal paying in full now. As a huge DQVIII, Pokemon, Studio Ghibli, and Cel-Shading fan, this was a MUST HAVE!

 

[Gillian Seed]

Sorry for the double post. Site is acting up.

 

[Nekobo]

I pre-ordered the LE from the site, but changed my mind and was able to successfully cancel my orde. It looks like an amazing LE, but $120 (including shipping and tax) is a bit too much for me.

I'm hoping this winds up on Amazon somehow...

 

[Katana_Strikes]

Reposting this in here cause it's such a good price:

Ni No Kuni Wraith of the White Wizards Edition is £55.82 on Amazon at the moment. About £14 less than others.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B008MLSNOY/

Edit: Price is back up to £69.99.

Wonder if they'll honour the original still...

 

[ponpo]

Canada ;_;

 

[Jotamide]

Why doesn't this include a soundtrack? If it did I would order in a heartbeat...

 

[klee123]

Anyone know any good UK retailers who actually ship games in a box? I'm planning to order this at a UK online retailer, but have been burnt many times in the past where they they ship everything in padded envelope and as a result, it arrived with its box damaged.

 

[Octagon]

you can trust amazon.co.uk as far as my experiences goes.

 

[StuBurns]

Amazon will ship it in a box, with paper packing.

EDIT: Presuming you're referring to the CE.

 

[Capell]

Ninostarter is really struggling to reach the first goal. I wonder if we'll ever see what the second reward would have been.

 

[Finalow]

can't wait for it, this game is like the most wanted. at least for me.

 

[Himself]

What a debacle.

 

[RPGCrazied]

Probably just a sampler soundtrack disc. No big deal.

Concerning my preorder at Amazon.de, I was notified that it'll have releasedate deliver. Didn't even know that this is special now as they've always delivered games on releasedate to me. Let's hope they Amazon Prime delivery method as that's always slower than their normal shipping lol.

Canada ;_;

their website is weird. You can select a canadian province and a postal code, but the only country available is United states. So I can't pre-order the limited edition if I live in Canada?

nope. we've whined about this at length earlier in the thread

there's still a chance we'll get a way to buy the CE, Namco is "looking into it"

I put my province/postal code in, left the country as USA and ordered anyway. Dunno what will happen!

Wizards Edition available in Australia for preorder now $149: http://www.ebgames.com.au/ps3-15909...e-White-Witch---Wizards-Edition-PlayStation-3

Any chance we will see the benefits of the extra US preorders, or count toward that total?

Effin' a, this is going to be like Dead Rising 2 where I bought the High Stakes Edition and the Zombrex Edition, isn't it?

Maybe I'll get lucky and the steelbook will just be a pre-order bonus so I can get it then cancel the pre-order.

Man! It sucks that that will not be included with my Preorder of The Wizards Edition! That looks really good!

 

[StuBurns]

I don't like that case, the normal cover is slick.

Wow, looks nice.

But it doesn't trump the book.

Sucks I can't have both.

Spoiler

Not going to buy two games.

 

[Dead Prince]

needs more image.

 

[Gillian Seed]

Does that hold the disc and manual? I also wander if its skinny enough to fit in a dvd rack?

 

[zroid]

It should be, but not sure if it's a G1 or G2 steelbook. G2 would mean same height as a blu-ray/PS3 case.

 

[LiK]

looks like a typical Blu steelbook.

 

[RustyO]

So... is the spell book just pictures of spells?

Or does it include some nice Ghibli pictures / artworks as well?

Friend is interested in grabbing this as a big Ghibli fan.

 

[ponpo]

So Canada just getting a steelbook, no cool collector's edition?

Sob.

It's required to play the game, teaches you the spells you have to use. The DS required the physical book, the PS3 version will have a digital copy.

 

[DanielJr82]

I'll be getting the regular edition. Can't wait to try out this little gem.

 

[zroid]

Sob.

hrmm... $45 FS pre-order or $60 w/ steelbook. Decisions.

 

[SMT]

This is like the Zelda of the PS3, yeah?

I will pretend this is Skyward Sword. Like when you're sleeping with someone, but pretending they're someone else.

Yeah.

 

[blixa]

never needed the book for the ps3 (yes, i know it's included digitally).. though i quit the game at the ice cave, which is somewhere about halfway?

edit; hmm.. actually there was that password needed for the pot-genie with the umbrella or whatever..

 

[Eusis]

This was said about Dark Cloud. The first.

Maybe we should back as far away from such statements as possible.

 

[Aeana]

Yeah.

They aren't even remotely similar game types, though.

 

[Borman]

I wish it would go up on Amazon in the US. I want to preorder it, but don't want to deal with any sort of hassle if I end up moving before the game ships.

Edit : Ended up preordering it anyway :\

 

[blixa]

must have been kidding, it obviously follows the typical rpg formula; worldmap, towns, dungeons, cutscenes.. which i guess is close enough to a zelda. however, as it was said.. the gameplay is nothing similar..

 

[Mejilan]

Just found out about the silly Ninostarter thing, but figured now would be a good time to cancel my Amazon.com order and switch it over to the ClubNamco LE. So... done.

 

[Hours Left]

Still no update for the Wizard's Edition in Canada? :/

 

[LiK]

Ninostarter better include that steelbook.

 

[b3b0p]

I'm still on the fence for this. I'lll buy the game to play, but not in the mood for a mantle piece. However, I know GAF will hate me, but I'm thinking some nice profit could be made off this a year or few months after the fact if wanted. I know, you guys probably hate that.

Nothing wrong with that at all. I am actually thinking about doing that, then just buying a copy to play. It is easily my most anticipated game!

 

[Einherjar]

Lame, just learned about the Wizard's Edition and after going to Namco's website I realize it's not available in Canada Take my money!

 

[x3r0123]

sigh time to import this from euro

edit: anyone know where i could import one that doesnt charge alot for shipping? zavvi is charging 70euros just for shipping

 

[Captain N]

Just pre-ordered it from The NamcoBandai store. Do they charge your card now or when it ships? Just wondering because if it isn't until January I might forget I even ordered this.
