Got it too on amazon! Now the wait. At least we got some good games to keep me busy until then

 

[DiabloTheGrey]

Got one!

 

[hwy_61]

Can't save up enough in that short period of time either. Currently everything is at Gamestop cause I have a lot of credit and some giftcards on top of some bit of money.

I believe GameStop sells Amazon gift cards. Lock it in for now.

DO IT.

 

[Eolz]

Nice, we can see the artbook cover in an higher-res thanks to Amazon

Elma got her Doll fucking destroyed

 

[SatoAilDarko]

Amazon is up

Thanks. Done.

Nabbed it. I'll likely cancel it if Best Buy gets it, but at least I can feel safe for now.

Pre-ordered from Amazon just until Best Buy puts a page for it up.

And bought. Hoping Best Buy puts it up though so I can swap.

Yeah. Not one is there GCU but Best Buy still has the 7 Mario Maker button set for preordering two select Nintendo games. I assume this counts like the regular edition.

I also have $100 in Best Buy gift cards.

 

[Malvingt2]

I got it!!!

 

[NoKisum]

Only 10 tracks? Is the music selection in the game that miniscule? Or am I missing something?

 

[RPGCrazied]

Wonder how fast it sell on Amazon.

Still no word on the size of the usb drive. Surely isn't 4, even 8 would be fricking tiny.

 

[Velcro Fly]

Locked it in at Amazon

Will switch to Best Buy if I can get it there.

Would be $72 with GCU

 

[RPGamer92]

Pre-ordered

 

[Rapscallion]

Exactly what I'm doing.

Want that 20% offfffff

 

[Hero of Legend]

Original res full-quality RGB art from the press site:

Artifacts were already there I'm afraid.

 

[Yarbskoo]

Amazon is up
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B014LNTVGK/?tag=neogaf0e-20

Preordered. At least I can cancel it when I regret it. Preordering games is stupid.

 

[RPGCrazied]

Is that a slip cover for the artbook? Or does everything fit in there?

 

[Nanashrew]

I believe GameStop sells Amazon gift cards. Lock it in for now.

DO IT.

Mine don't. Just Kindles.

 

[DragoonKain]

The European one still hasn't gone live yet, has it?

 

[Shizuka]

How big is the USB stick?

 

[hwy_61]

Mine don't. Just Kindles.

Kindle gift cards? Those are Amazon gift cards lol

 

[Ridley327]

Only 10 tracks? Is the music selection in the game that miniscule? Or am I missing something?

No, this is just a sampler. Since it's been sold digitally in the US since the game came out in Japan, I imagine that NoA doesn't want to step on the toes of Sony Music too much.

 

[Nanashrew]

Kindle gift cards? Those are Amazon gift cards lol

Nah, the tablets.

 

[Fishlake]

Wow a custom USB! That USB could actually be useful to me. I might get this.

 

[hwy_61]

Nah, the tablets.

Oh ok. Welp, That sucks.

 

[razgriz417]

Nabbed it. I'll likely cancel it if Best Buy gets it, but at least I can feel safe for now.

yup, I'm in the same boat

 

[RPGCrazied]

Also wonder if the usb drive has any leds or lights. Probably not, lets not get carried away.

 

[NoKisum]

Oh, so it's a music licensing issue. That fucking sucks. Still pre-ordering once I get to a computer though.

 

[E_Darkness]

If it does then I'm definitely jealous.


I want to preorder the EU version already.

 

[The12thGripper]

Ordered but will cancel it the minute Best Buy puts it up. GCU is too good.

 

[Eolz]

Only 10 tracks? Is the music selection in the game that miniscule? Or am I missing something?

Here's the real OST, would recommend it to anyone. Worth about 30$

The European one still hasn't gone live yet, has it?

Nope. Nintendo UK store might get another bonus on top of that, as usual now (probably just a t-shirt, but still).

 

[Ridley327]

I guess it's more obvious in the hi-res art, but it looks like the copy of the game in the SE has a reversible cover to resemble the outer packaging. Nice little touch.

Jesus christ! Good thing I was checking out the thread, because I had the regular amazon xenoblade chronicles x page open, since they add both regular and special edition to the same product page. I kept hitting refresh and only the regular edition was there. If you hadn't posted that link I would have probably missed it.

Love it when publishers/devs do this

 

[kitchenmotors]

Why is that monkey taking over GAF?

Don't worry about it.

 

[razgriz417]

Man that CE box looks great on amazon

 

[Kriken]

Don't worry about it.

Tell the monkey he can come back once he pays to have the watermark removed

 

[Akibared]

I got one I'm a sucker for artbooks.

 

[SatoAilDarko]

I'm to back to Splatfest or go out to eat in case Best Buy updates. Hopefully in won't disappear I the three minutes for a Splatoon match.

 

[Vital Tundra]

Amazon is up
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B014LNTVGK/?tag=neogaf0e-20

Pre-ordered... For now.

 

[kuroneko0509]

surprised they went with Wels instead of Formula for SE boxart heh

 

[TheGreatLugia]

I got my order in on Amazon but I have a quick question about it.

I didn't see an option for release day shipping. Does that option get added later, is it automatic, or is the option just not showing up for the Special Edition yet? I have Prime and set it to two day shipping.

 

[-NeoTB1-]

Sweet. Pre-ordered.

 

[D-Man]

Aaaand pre-ordered. I barely ever get Special Editions, but this one seems cool enough for me to go for it. Really excited for the game too.

 

[Renewed]

I'm not arguing Now I just need this to appear on amazon.ca :<

It'll be added later once they update shipping details for it. I wouldn't worry.

Mine says release day, maybe its a Prime thing? But you have Prime, dunno.

Should give the option of 1 day. 2 day for Prime but that gets to you on release anyway.

I believe they got rid of release day shipping. Now you have to select two day to get it on release. Sucks for non prime members.

 

[Etria]

Preordered at Amazon! Thanks to everyone for the heads up. It's slightly problematic since I can't play the disc on my Wii U, but will consider if the different goodies are worth importing the SE.

[Gnilres]

Had to preorder on Amazon even though I have nowhere near this much to spend for it.

That big box and art book are just too alluring.

EDIT: Anyone know if Best Buy charges for pre-orders before shipping?

 

[TheGreatLugia]

I checked the standard edition and it has release day shipping for the free two day shipping option with Prime. Hopefully it's just not in the system yet.
