Xenoblade Chronicles X: NA Special Edition announced.

I mean just look at the pictures, the US artbook is bigger hence ''better'', whether it has the the same art as the EU one or not. (it won't be surprising if it doesn't)

Just speculation judging from the size of the packaging shown for the PAL version.


That Japanese bundle artbook would fit inside that box. Behard to support the larger sized NA artbook with that with that little cardboard cutout on the top of the packaging.

Thanks, didn't pay attention to this.
Oh well, hope there will be good quality scans later at least (or hopefully, a fully-sized japanese one later).
 
Is it available on gamestop.com right now? I can add to cart. Previously it said sold out, I'm not sure if this counts as a pre-order or what?

So it seems that the collectors's edition is coming with the Prima guide as well. Was states in the game informer interview along with some other details like age changes, etc.

It doesn't read like the guide will be included with the collector's edition. I think it's simply stating that in addition to the collector's edition, a guide will also be available for purchase.

Yeah. Its a mistake. The post author meant to write that there is a Collector's Edition of the guide. It come with a cleaning cloth with artwork.

Hasn't gone up on best buy yet has it?

Nope. I'm betting they wanted to avoid their Nintendo preorder offer that ended on September 10 but I wonder what the deal is now?
 
Got my preorder at Gamestop, I'm worried though since it has been available for so long. Do they actually have that many? Or are they allowing preorders for more copies than they have?

Release is December 4th right? It does give them a fair amount of time to make a bunch but I am also surprised preorders have been open for so long.
 
Wait-people think the Hardcover guide is included with the SE? I dont think so- digital guide may be included but theres no way the physical guide is in the box.

edit-ah the digital copy is if you buy the hardcover guide-
Deluxe hardcover: The beautiful hardcover edition of the guide will have premium treatments.
Screen cleaner: Includes a high-quality, microfiber screen cleaner featuring art from the game.
Explore everything: Our detailed walkthrough will guide players through all regions of this massive open world.
Customize your gameplay: Learn the best ways to customize your character and Skell to match your playstyle.
Master combat: Proven battle tactics on how to defeat each enemy and boss.
All the secrets: Complete details on all secrets in the game.
Free mobile-friendly eGuide! Includes a code to access the eGuide, a digital version of the complete strategy guide optimized for a second-screen experience.
These limited edition guides will only be printed once. When they are sold out, they will be gone forever!

I preordered on Gamestop.i but it was available also on amazon.it!!!

OT but everytime I see your tag and dp I can't help but clutch my sides in laughter thinking of a stupid typo your phone made.

Anyways, has there been news of a Canadian release date for the LE? I mean, I already have it pre-ordered from GameStop's site, but I'm not exactly keen on spending the extra $20USD for shipping and $110USD kinda translates to ~$145 CDN

Watch it get priced at $149.95 anyways

Is this the most staggered release of a gaming product ever?

First Amazon, then Gamestop, then Newegg and now Walmart.

At this rate I'm expecting Target in a few days followed by Best Buy.

Well at least it's not a Gamestop or worst yet, Nintendo World Store exclusive. :D

Well, not "ever". Just slow, probably a combination of Nintendo's modest shipping numbers and retailers wary of the Wii U and Wii U software sales.
 
GAME are now taking pre-orders for the EU Limited Edition (UK customers only, apparently), £59.99: http://www.game.co.uk/en/xenoblade-chronicles-x-limited-edition-only-at-game-806697


Also, this is disappointing:
----------------
Only at GAME Terms & Conditions: UK ONLY. Xenoblade Chronicles X Limited Edition is only available at selected GAME stores, GAME.co.uk and Nintendo.co.uk. This does not affect your statutory rights. This offer is exclusive to GAME Retail Ltd.
----------------

I'm yet to convince myself that I want the LE enough to pay £60, but I'll get a protective pre-order placed in case of stock limitations.

Seems it's on amazon UK too, but unavailable
Click to expand...
yep, was it ever available before and now it's just gone? Or it's unavailable but "will probably be available soon".

would really like to get this from amazon but if I wait some more I might not get it at all, I'm afraid. I guess I'll go for gamestop.it, sigh
 
So wait, is the collector's edition strategy guide with the game's special edition or not? I got the book sitting in my cart on Amazon, just need to know if I need to execute this now or not.

You can order it now and cancel your preorder if it comes out later that it is in the collector's edition.
