I like it so far. Though I'm stuck on what I should name my farm.
where did you order from? what shipping speed did you pick?

I decided to pass up the plushie and just order from Amazon. I preordered on the 23 or so of last month. I paid for next day shipping, so it went out via UPS.

I think part of the reason for the speed was that I used the 'contact us' on Amazon yesterday afternoon when it didn't look like they were planning to ship anytime soon. I told them I knew the game was out yesterday and asked why they had me listed for the 13th for delivery, reminding them I paid extra for the next day shipping. I got a very nice email back and the game was promptly shipped.

It pays to ask questions, politely.

I don't think anything's closed in Canada today even though it's Remembrance Day. which is good because that means I can go to the mall tonight and start bugging people.

I should be getting mine within the next hour from gamestop, I can't wait!

I've been up since 3:45 this morning. I couldn't sleep because I was so excited.

Is that weird?

Look at all the smilies

My GameStop just crushed my happiness. Though they said they would have it today, they now say the release date isn't until TOMARROW.

Aww D:
Though really.... it may not be released here yet, but even so, I normally add about 3 to 4 days after the release date before I check to see if something is in my local Game. And half the time I still have to wait a day longer since shipments take an age. I mean, I still have not seen a copy of ToT in there even though it was released a month or two ago.

I guess the journey continues by waiting around some more then..

The DS is region free, right? I want this game too~

Hopefully if the DS is region free I can get it shipped over here. Anyone know if it is? :D

omg. i can't wait. i played the japanese version, but i didn't like that because i couldn't understand. but i definately importing the english version. :]

The DS games usually are region free. I'm from Europe and I also pre-ordered the US version. Waiting for the european SI would kill my patience.

Still hasn't been sent, though :/

There has been a big shipping problem with the HM games. oO
Both(i think) SI and AP are being pushed back since of it.

Yeah and it isn't Natsume's fault from what I've read. I'd think it's the weather, though there's a lot of people blaming Gamestop itself. I don't see what they could really do different to make it come here faster, so yeah..

Probably just the weather or whoever's transporting it.

The website says that mine isn't shipping until the 12th. Oh well, I guess I'll just play HM64 and DS Cute and work on my government paper while I wait. It's probably a good thing that I'm not getting it yet or I probably would get very little done on that paper.
