I haven't pre-ordered yet. I'm still not sure where I should pre-order. Play Asia or Gamestop? I live in Europe so I need to think about shipping price too.

I never reserve a game. I should probably someday, but the games I like aren't the ones to get jumped on by everyone, so....they're always there (except when....they're not out yet ^^")

Reserving is free, though. (The 5 dollar payment goes toward your game purchase.) So really it's just a free plush for saying you'll buy the game. :3
I don't know about where you all live but at the Gamestops/EB Games near my house, the five dollars is to ensure you get the game, then when you pick it up you have to pay full price PLUS the five... so to me, it's not worth it.
It isn't that way here I work at a game stop and the five you put down goes to pay for the game and game stop holds a copy for you.

I'm not pre-ordering. The last time I did that was back when HMGBC3 was coming out and I'm not going to do that again. (If there was a pre-ordered item and I never got it. I'm going to be sad and defenitly boycotting Gamestop from here to kingdom come). Again, I'm going to wait until FAQs are up, and see what the reviews are like. (This was a game I was about to import but had second thoughts about it).

I went ahead and pre-ordered it two days ago. I'm really hoping that it's better than Sunshine Islands.

I went ahead and pre-ordered despite the fact that the shipping price was more than the game itself. o.0
My step-dad owes me for my A* in my Physics mock (we make stupid bets for my grades) so he wasn't too bothered about paying but I hope it's worth. As long as it arrives to me and works then I won't complain. I'm too impatient for to wait for the release dates in Europe, since they've only just rated SI.

Oh Hollie, I know what you feel!
I was ready to pre-order it in Gamestop but I was shocked when I saw the shipping price - 54$!

« What The Eggplant »?! :shock:

Play-Asia is good because the highest shipping price is 34$ (UPS). They offer another and less expensive shipping options too.

I have the duck and the pig already <3 I really wanted that chicken though. Do you think they'd make it a bonus item ever again?

Dr. Quackenstein and Professor Quiggliebottom look lonely XD In all honest to goodness, the horse is a huge reason why I'm even buying the game XD I'm a bit of a sucker for plushies <3

I mean I'm excited for the game but... I have a feeling it's going to be just like Sunshine Island in game play. And I hated that game.

I don't think it will be. From what I've seen of it, it looks like it will be much different. But I know how you feel, I now strongly dislike SI. I liked it when I got it, but now I am sick of it.

Oh that's odd. o3o At the Gamestops I go to it's like a down payment.
That's why I don't bother with pre-ordering
I think your mistaken unless you live in another country or getting ripped off... It could be possible that an employee is pocketing the money... Call and ask around... They will tell you the preorder amount goes toward the game purchase...
