Mine was shipped yesterday (22nd) with Parcelforce 'Express 24' Delivery!
So it should be here today? right? right?

Dammit, I wish they wouldnt tell me when its dispatched. It fills the next few days with disappointment

Not necessarily. It might just have been given to Parcelforce but with strict orders for them not to release it until it's meant to be with you.

 

[DeadRockstar]

I feel you. I got a shipped e-mail on Saturday just gone. Yet when I check tracking: 'Awaiting receipt of parcel.'

GIVE DPD THE DAMN PARCEL.

 

[Moz La Punk]

I do have to say I enjoyed playing on my 3DS the past couple of weeks and getting weird looks from people on the train.

I mean I always get weird looks but now its because of the 3DS. Right? Right...

 

[besiktas1]

Dispatched from Tesco! HELLLL YEAHHHHH!!!!!
Now starts the nervousness, the pacing around the house, the jumping every time the dog barks, the increased heart rate whenever there's a knock at the door...AHHH

Tesco Entertainment Order is dispatched here.

HYPE HYPE HYPE

I hate both of you...

 

[Adamm]

You were suppose to provide me with false hope

Spoiler

But you are probably right

SSFIV ARRIVED from Amazon UK today yet my 3DS is still "dispatching soon."

RAGE

SSFIV only took a day to arrive so hopefully it will be the same for the 3DS when it does dispatch...

 

[Mafro]

I hate both of you...

My Tesco order is still "awaiting dispatch" to.

ShopTo have sent SSFIV and t looks like PES will be dispatched today too.

 

[Turrican3]

Amazon UK is "dispatching soon" the two 3DS games I've ordered. One of them was in the buy 3DS, get 1 game for 15£ bundle-offer, yet I got charged the full amount ( about 60 pounds :| ) on my credit card. I assume they will apply the promotion when they charge for the console, right? RIGHT?!

And talking about the console... 3DS is in "not yet dispatched" status, but still expected to ship tomorrow. So in the best case scenario, I will get the games *before* the console, lol

 

[Shin Kojima]

I hope this isn't a stupid question, but if it has been discussed I completely missed it.
Is it possible to transfer your Wii VC games to the 3DS?

 

[besiktas1]

On a side note away from my bitching, out of all the online retailers, which customers got their console first? Depending on that, that's where I'll be preorder the NGP... iWoot iirc?

 

[waru]

For me. Amazon.fr not yet been shipped. I am waiting for 3DS and 3 games...
GRRR
Some French in the same situation as me?

 

[Celine]

Amazon.fr is apparently also still not dispatching their 3DS orders yet.

Yep :-(

Not french but I'm in the same situation.

EDIT:
Wait Amazon.fr just sent me an email !
Bah just an ad.

 

[BGBW]

Still odd that my game has been dispatched yet the system hasn't considering I ordered the system about one month before.

I don't know if anybody outside of Spain has got theirs yet. My order is with IWOOT. I will say that they made arrangements with a good courier well in advance, so if my order does get to my by release I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. Especially considering they honoured the stupid £167.99 price.

I work at a gamestore and we have plenty of games in as well but no systems yet.

 

[BowieZ]

Take a moment to appreciate what you guys have.

We Australian cousins of yours have to wait till next Thursday.

At this rate some of us tesco preorderers won't get it by then /hyperbole

lol I'm impatient :3

 

[mrklaw]

My Amazon games haven't shipped yet, even though I paid for expedited delivery.

 

[Visualante]

Any way we can try these out at kiosks/stores, I want to try the 3D for half an hour to see if I get a headache before buying.

 

[mrklaw]

most GAME and Gamestation stores in the UK have had demo units for a while. They should probably have games too now.

 

[Ashler]

Yep :-(


Not french but I'm in the same situation.

EDIT:
Wait Amazon.fr just sent me an email !
Bah just an ad.

Yeah, although those are some pretty good shoe discounts.

 

[MLH]

My Amazon games haven't shipped yet, even though I paid for expedited delivery.

Indeed, ordered on the 19th of January paid for expedited and still showing "Not yet dispatched". Come on Amazon, don't let me down!

To be fair though, Amazon have always been good with their day one delivery; and I don't think companies want retailers breaking street dates.
I just need to be patient...

 

[moozoom]

Just got a mail from the video game store I reserved it in, and their shipment is arriving today ! Just have to wait for their phone call to go fetch it in Paris...

 

[Jo Shishido's Cheeks]

Is it possible to transfer your Wii VC games to the 3DS?

"Forget about it Jake. It's Chinatown Nintendo!"

(though you CAN transfer DSiWare from a DSi or DSiXL if you're prepared to wait until 'sometime' in May)

these days though, 'day 1' needs to be 'day -1', because the post doesn't arrive until around noon. so you can buy it retail earlier than online which is crazy. Just allow them to deliver the day before

Oh, Waru, funny to see you here today! You help me with Four Swords + in japanese back to the nintendojofr days, 7 years ago. Damn! :lol

 

[Caesar III]

My Amazon UK order is still not dispatched. Is this the same for everybody else? My estimated dispatch date is tomorrow though, but I really expected them to ship a day or a couple days earlier for those outside the UK or using the free delivery option.

It's the same for me. I guess and hope they'll ship from Germany anyway (for me) like they do in nearly all cases. Perhaps they'll send it out tonight. I really hope so Good luck to you too!

 

[Wichu]

Is there any chance I'll be able to pick up my pre-order in-store from Morrisons tomorrow? I'm going to be away over the weekend, and I don't know whether I'll be able to pick it up on Friday...

They won't break the street date.

Wow lucky!

 

[marc^o^]

Fnac just told me I can pick up the 3DS in a couple of hours. Yeah!

 

[syoaran]

For those of you in central london - all shops that stock games on oxford street will be having midnight openings, that includes Currys, GAME and HMV. So if your still in need of a machine and have not pre-ordered, they will be your best bet for a quick walkin.

My office is just overlooking the street, so I just work late, get paid for waiting for my machine, walk into HMV at midnight launch and then go home. Awesome ~

 

[Woffls]

GameGears order has been despatched within the last hour or so. Was hoping they'd despatch earlier, but apparently it's 1-2 day courier delivery, so it might be here as early as tomorrow morning ^_^

 

[besiktas1]

yataaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

*sobs*

Where the fuck is the smiley when you need it :'D

 

[Fritz]

Jesus, I can't concentrate on my job! Why cant Germany have things early?

 

[waru]

Fnac just told me I can pick up the 3DS in a couple of hours. Yeah!

Which city?

 

[miksar]

Amazon.de just shipped mine, the wait is going to kill me.

 

[marc^o^]

Which city?

Paris Saint Lazare. I'll post impressions tonight

 

[gofreak]

Edge has a review of SSFIV up, which IIRC wasn't in the current issue:

http://www.next-gen.biz/features/super-street-fighter-iv-3d-edition-review

They give it an 8.

 

[Blue Geezer]

Your order is on its way!


whoop whoop

 

[Donnie]

I emailed Amazon UK about my order and got this reply:

I am sorry for the delay in the dispatch of your order.

I have checked your order *************** and I am pleased to confirm that it has already entered the dispatch process.

We still expect to deliver your order ************** by the date listed in Your Account: March 25, 2011.

Once your order is dispatched from our Fulfilment Centre you'll receive an e-mail confirming the date, contents and method of delivery.

Just dispatch it!, do it now!!

 

[gofreak]

Isn't it meant to say 'processing' when they start the dispatch process? Does it say that on your order?

Anyway, I'm glad they've started. It'll probably take them a while to get to my order mind...

 

[Donnie]

It just says "Not yet dispatched".

 

[gofreak]

It just says "Not yet dispatched".

Thanks. So technically, mine could be being processed right now too!

~wishful

 

[Omikaru]

Going to email Amazon now to see if I'm in the same boat as you, Donnie.

Here's hoping...

 

[LayLa]

We thought you'd like to know that the following item has been despatched

( ^_^)

Delivery usually takes 3 to 5 days from the day of despatch but if you do not receive your item within this time, please allow at least ten days from the despatch date before contacting customer services.

（；_・）

 

[waru]

Amazon.fr gives the impression of not having received their stock of 3DS...

 

[mrklaw]

they're all major online stores that have huge logistics operations and know what they're doing. no need to panic.

Looks like Ridge Racer 3D and the Ubisoft games are already availabe at most places in the Netherlands but Pilotwings and 3DS haven't showed up everywhere yet.
