Beats me, I think the same thing happened with Zestiria for quite some time too with amazon.ca having it listed well before them. It seems Ebgames is really slow at getting the system updated...

Cross-posting from the "Cheap Arse Gaffer" thread, the European Limited Edition is 59.99 from Amazon.fr, discounted by 10 over other retailers. If you're getting it shipped to the UK, that works out as about £45 before any non-Sterling fees that your bank might apply.

Gamestop seems to be taking orders again...
Oh sorry, I thought they did. I only really looked for them way back when this was announced and when I was able to get one. Sorry I must be mistaken.

Yeah, I was under the impression that they never actually took it down. Might've been some patches where it was unavailable, but not for very long, unlike Amazon shutting them off after the first day.

My local EBGames in Montreal had 12 copies available for pre-order today. Got mine in time!
Nice!

A special edition for Xenoblade X !?
Tempting, but im gonna wait on this, game seems less impressive/fun than the original of the import thread.

US-GAF: Target is taking orders again online for the collectors edition. Dec. 4 shipping, with release date delivery available for an extra charge (free delivery within 5 business days).

bestbuy.com still has the CE for order with free release day shipping. By far the best option with GCU. If you are a console gamer without GCU you are doing it wrong, plainly put. that 20% off all games will add up super fast, ditto if you are into toys-to-life (amiibo, skylanders, disney infinity, lego dimensions)
Not sure why anyone would pick target instead... unless best buy sold out. you can't do the buy 2 get 1 free offer with it since it's a pre-order (correct me if this is wrong?)

Amazon sold out, and never got more stock?

i repreordered the game. had to get the $10 RZ certificate applied to it at BB on top of GCU. lol
Does anyone know if you can still get this for preorder in-store at Best Buy?
BestBuy.com is telling me it's for shipping only and haven't been able to stop by a Best Buy in a while. I have my orders in at GameStop and Amazon (need to cancel this one) but seriously considering getting the Gamers Club Unlocked and if I can get in-store pick up I'd like to use it on Xenoblade.

If I recall correctly it's never been available for store pick-up, only shipping.
I think that's likely.
Ah I see. Thanks. GameStop it is then.

If it's not at least large enough to fit some data packs...

Someone posted an unboxing of this on youtube:

The artbook isn't hardcover :/ But at least its full sized, and rumor is the usb is 10gb, which I doubt.

Edit: nevermind, thanks RPGCrazied
I don't see the USB being 10GB... also I really wish they explored it a bit more. Or maybe made notes after the video about it.
It was in the comments, but not from the uploader himself. I doubt its that big either.

Kind of a bummer the artbook isn't hardcover but I'm a sucker for them so whatever. I probably don't need this SE but I loved Xenoblade so much and had to pass on Fallout 4 and Battlefront so I could afford this game so GIVE IT TO ME. Just a little over two weeks :O
Thanks man, just ordered. Hope its not all in French.
Edit: I should probably mention its currently at 55/£38 including shipping.

a confirmation would be nice. personally I was hoping it would at least be big enough to hold the speed up patches
10gb doesn't sound right though as they come in 8/16/32 and even formatted a 16gb should be 14 or so gigs.
wait.. the USB doesn't sound right at 10GB, not oly because it is not on the normal formats of USB sticks, they usually go at 8GB and then jump at 16GB no? and also the digital pack alone is 15GB, it wouldn't even work for the pack, hope its at 16GB, but I'm not holding my breath
Ehhh, I wish the box was atleast hard cardboard, kinda like the Bloodborne CE.
But everything is soft cover.....

Yes indeed - they dropped the price today, after a temporary bump up to 62.99.
Figures. I just heard about this CE (behind the times, I know) and wanted to use GCU to preorder it.
I guess it's either full price elsewhere or maybe take a pass. I'm not sure it's worth the $90 asking price, but I am a sucker for good art books. I also always miss out on Nintendo CEs... Time to order from Target I guess. I can always cancel before release if I change my mind.

They must've just sold out recently. It was still up around the 12th or whenever the Nintendo direct was.
it's unlikely at this point, I mean they had it up for like 2 months which is amazing for a nintendo collectors.

Since Amazon doesn't seem to want to ship the SE by launch, I decided to take a preorder at Gamestop.
No, I can't wait 4 more days.
