FUCK. I missed the Amazon preorders

Will have to hold out for Best Buy to go up...

8 minutes until it should go up on toys r us

 

[RPGam3r]

Order confirmed. Thanks GAF and my bad habit of refreshing this forum.

 

[ionitron]

There's no listing for the 3DS on Toys R Us yet, though, right? I've been anticipating Toys R Us being the earlier one all day. =/

 

[x3sphere]

Hopefully the chances of getting an IPS screen are good with this one

 

[Mr. Nice_Guy]

Link?

 

[MrFrankFontaine]

Now that I'm getting a 3DS, in the mood to play an JRPG on it. I'm thinking either:

Dragon Quest VII
SHIN MEGAMI TENSEI IV
Bravely Default

Any recommendations?

 

[TheFlow]

I got free shipping on both.

Not yet, but their ad says 9PM

 

[Empyrean Heaven]

Link?

.

 

[vypek]

I've been looking at Toys R Us and Target online and have yet to see a link for either of them

 

[jqdunn]

Got an order confirmation email:

I miss when Chicago didnt charge tax on Amazon orders :/

 

[Steiner]

Don't see it on Toys R Us yet...

 

[//ARCANUM]

I did the same exact thing but i chatted with a rep. They refused to take back the credit and told me to dispute it with my bank.

um... wow

 

[Namikaze]

I canceled my amazon order; with NX around the corner, I don't really need a new 3DS in black.

Spoiler

mainly because I have one in white. Not trying to be greedy, here

 

[Mitch]

Damn, of course I was out when this was available.

 

[game_boy]

Anyone have a Toys R Us link? I can't find it on their site

 

[//ARCANUM]

Does anyone have any links for some good deals on cover plates? The ones I am seeing on Amazon are $25 and I don't think I want to spend that much just yet.

Nintendo has a small handful available here for fair prices: https://store.nintendo.com/ng3/browse/subcategory.jsp?categoryId=cat600792&pageSize=6&viewAll=true

Also, if anyone is looking for a case for the n3DS, I have this one and it fits the standard sized n3DS like a glove!

It's not on their site yet.

The two sold-out 2DS store entries JUST vanished from the website though, so Toys R Us is doing something right now.

 

[CrispyBoar]

Right here:

http://t.toysrus.com/?TRU=1

Edit: NVM, I don't see it on there. Must be in store only.

 

[vypek]

Neither do I. Seems they didn't post it at all even though their online stuff is supposed to have started by this point. Wonder if this is a thing they plan to do only in stores.

 

[Mr. Nice_Guy]

Right here:

http://t.toysrus.com/?TRU=1

So it'll show up here when available? Because I've been looking and it isn't there.

 

[Maiden Voyage]

My order on Amazon is now at Preparing for shipment. I also got the email confirmation so I'm fairly confident that they will arrive next week.

 

[CrispyBoar]

So it'll show up here when available? Because I've been looking and it isn't there.

Yep, I just checked it out. They're probably only selling it in stores or something.

 

[Jeremy]

I'll never understand why they have a notification system!

 

[Immaculate]

soul hackers

 

[ionitron]

I want to have faith that they haven't updated their site or something? The ad implied everything that wasn't a doorbuster would also be online starting now, ugh.

 

[Vibed]

Oh what the fuck. Didn't get a notification. Go shopping and I miss it? Fuuuuuuck youuuu

 

[mattiewheels]

This'll be widely available in 2017, right? Please tell me it's not some limited run for Black Friday...

 

[TangerineCloud]

Does Hori make those clear TPU cases for the New 3DS? I've had one on my 3DS XL and it's been pretty great.

 

[dfa records]

I've seen a few people in here mention an IPS screen? What's that specifically? Are there different model screens or something?

 

[Gin-Shiio]

I've been keeping tabs on this for my girlfriend who is in need of a 3DS. And this is what happens? Trying to not externalise my anger atm.

 

[CrispyBoar]

This'll be widely available in 2017, right? Please tell me it's not some limited run for Black Friday...

Unfortunately, it's a limited run for BF.

I'm just lucky that I've pre-ordered one in time from Amazon.

 

[Empyrean Heaven]

[The Shadow]

You and me both.

Wanted to get one for my daughter since her cousin is always waving his around and playing it when she visits. Fuck.

 

[DR2K]

No cancellations from Amazon, this is good right?

 

[mattiewheels]

Oh, ok. I really hate these guys after all these stunts. Just let me buy your goddamn products.

 

[Jeremy]

yea the XL is pretty uncomfortable, I've had it forever but never have played many games due to the size and my lil hands. if I don't get this one I'm probably just gonna sell it and all the games.

 

[LowParry]

No cancellations from Amazon, this is good right?

I think it's safe to say it's legit.

 

[Adam Prime]

I was under the impression 11.0 wasn't exploitable.

I've heard these make killer portable SNES machines.

You can map the zL and zR buttons for save state saving and loading. It's the killer everything emulation machine.

 

[Maiden Voyage]

No cancellations from Amazon, this is good right?

Quite the opposite. They must have had a decent number of units.

 

[darthbob]

Oh what the fuck. Didn't get a notification. Go shopping and I miss it? Fuuuuuuck youuuu

Yep, Amazon fucked us. No email notification despite signing up for the alerts.

 

[Undead Fantasy]

This'll be widely available in 2017, right? Please tell me it's not some limited run for Black Friday...

We don't know.

YES! Preparing for shipment.

 

[Jailer of Hope]

They do this every black Friday. It's just super hot this year because 1) Price. 2) non xl new 3ds were only ever released as limited editions (Pokemon, animal crossing) 3) black has never been released in NA for non xl.

 

[SchrodingerC]

You and me both.

Wanted to get one for my daughter since her cousin is always waving his around and playing it when she visits. Fuck.

Toys R Us and Best Buy might be your best chance to get one tonight.

 

[neurophd]

What Pokémon game should I get for a 7 year old? Other must buy games?

 

[RPGam3r]

Yep, Amazon fucked us. No email notification despite signing up for the alerts.

So while I always have good preorder experiences with Amazon, I have never had that notification feature actually work.

 

[ionitron]

Toys R Us and Best Buy might be your best chance to get one tonight.

I think walmart too.

 

[CrispyBoar]

YES! Preparing for shipment.

Got the same thing.

 

[Loop Fruit]

when does bestbuy go up?

 

[Blizzard]

yea the XL is pretty uncomfortable, I've had it forever but never have played many games due to the size and my lil hands. if I don't get this one I'm probably just gonna sell it and all the games.

I have big hands and STILL got hand cramps from the 3DS XL (not the n3DS XL though, don't know about that one).

I had to get a big comfy grip thing before I could play it without my hands going numb.
