Damn I really can't decide if I should pull the trigger and get the wizard's edition or not. $100 is quite a bit for a game but it's such a nice collector's edition. Argh what do I do?

Do it and help us get those coins

 

[TheChillyAcademic]

MUST HAVE COIN

 

[DarkPanda]

I'm so glad to see they extended the deadline; the 81% with 1 day left was disheartening. Hopefully that + the Canadians will be enough to get us that coin! I do think they made a mistake by not including the steelbook, either standard or as the first goal. I wouldn't be surprised if that was the deciding factor for a lot of people.

 

[Dead Prince]

They're going to offer something really nice for Goal #3 knowing that they'll never reach it.

steelcase.

 

[KageMaru]

I just might jump on this =)

Yeah I am cancelling my Indy bluray boxset for this.

 

[elty]

Damn,110 bucks Canadian,I guess without taxes and all,which will push this close to 125 bucks...I really want this but do you guys know if I pre order the regular edition from Amazon or Gamestop if it counts for the items?...will it raise the percentage...

120 bucks is a lot of money compared to the 60 for the regular edition...

If they ship with UPS ground, then another $20-30 brokerage fee.

I have a pre order on the normal version for $50 - $10 RZ coupon from BB. This looks really appealing, but I am not sure if I want to pay $140 (shipping + brokerage fee) for it....

 

[Soyongdori]

Is the game even good?

 

[Mysterious Stranger]

I want this game sooo bad!!!

 

[Mysterious Stranger]

Is the game even good?

Yes

The PlayStation 3 version of Ni no Kuni scored 36 out of 40 from Famitsu.[27] The magazines PSM3 and Computer and Video Games gave the Japanese version of the game a 91% score,[28] as well as the Best RPG award of E3 2012

 

[Zim]

I placed my pre-order, now it's time to play the waiting game.

I'm super excited for Ni No Kuni!!!! Hopefully it will be amazing since it comes out a full month before my wife pops out my first kid. That should give me plenty of time to enjoy it. After the lil one comes, no more time for gaming for a loooooooong time ): ........

Come on coin!!!!

 

[Seoman]

First pre-order since 3D Dot Game Heroes! So looking forward to some old school RPG gaming!

 

[DigitalDevil]

93%!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! keep 'em comin' guys!!!!!!!

[Dynamic3]

Um, so I just got an email saying my preorder is shipping on Tue.

 

[CorporateClown]

Anybody else get an email about release date change? According to the one I just got the game is now coming out Sept. 4 Hmmmm....I'm assuming this is wrong. Hopefully not, though.

 

[DigitalDevil]

Uh.

probably just has something to do with them extending the ninostarter deal.

 

[Aeana]

Yep, just got that e-mail. Wut.

 

[Canis lupus]

wtf september 4th? If true I need to add some credits to my online wallet!

 

[Erekiddo]

Just got the e-mail as well.

 

[Busaiku]

If you ordered it, they already charged you.
Guess it's just people that used Paypal.

 

[dakkumauji]

Yeah, got that email. Weird.

 

[Aeana]

If you ordered it, they already charged you.

No they didn't, it was just a standard authorization that was removed a couple of days later. Unless you used PayPal or something.

 

[Het_Nkik]

Got it as well. Sent a message to Namco's Twitter asking about it so hopefully they say something soon.

 

[FlyingTeacup]

just received the same email, 04/09 for my pre-order.

 

[PolishQ]

Also got it. That's a pretty early release, if true! Probably not true.

 

[Busaiku]

No they didn't, it was just a standard authorization that was removed a couple of days later. Unless you used PayPal or something.

Well, I did do that.

 

[Canis lupus]

If you ordered it, they already charged you.

I ordered it through a uk online store.

 

[Dead Prince]

got email. LOL if true.

 

[Busaiku]

Maybe it's just Ninostarter people!
I will be optimistic!

 

[sandrockgundam04]

I got it too...seems too good to be true really, for a game that isn't supposed to be out until early next year.

 

[Dedication Through Light]

That would be hilarious if it is, though hope people had the money in their accounts.

 

[Aeana]

The cynic in me feels like they're fabricating a mistake to drum up pre-orders a bit more. :

Wizard Edition exclusive amirite.

Goal #2 is at 93%.

 

[basefree]

If this turns out to be US only and EU is left waiting until next year, I'll be importing.

 

[TheChits]

So if I order the Wizard's Edition from teh namco store I get the ninostarter stuff right?

[DigitalDevil]

yes, but you have to order in the next 4 days

 

[Busaiku]

You can only get it through Namco's store, but the Ninostarter only lasts a couple more days.

 

[TheChits]

Thanks for the replies guys. Just ordered

 

[Robobandit]

I got the email too..

Very strange..

Not that I would complain about getting it several months ahead of schedule.. but somehow I doubt that this is actually the case..

 

[Jacksonlee]

so the games out in sept?

 

[RPGCrazied]

so the games out in sept?

January.

 

[Aeana]

Keep up, RPGCrazied!

 

[jj984jj]

It's now shipping to Canada guys!

Oh, I didn't notice until today. Glad I didn't miss a spot for Ninostarter.

 

[Gillian Seed]

That would be the most awesome suprise if we got the game 4 months early! But i highly doubt it.

 

[DrFunk]

I got it as well. Forgot I even ordered it

 

[Reluctant-Hero]

That would be the most awesome suprise if we got the game 4 months early! But i highly doubt it.

Hey bud, good to see you posting.

Placed my preorder this morning. Whether it releases next week or in January, I'm stoked! Now... have to find a way get that GameStop steelbook.
