Just a heads up for GameStop preorders...

The horses are in, and they are adorable

Make sure you call beforehand obviously, but my store got ours in on Thursday, which is way earlier than I was expecting.

Well Arya is just talking about the horses. The horses may be in but that doesn't mean the games have to too. It sounds like they work at Gamestop so that's how this would be known.

And...yaaaay. I can't wait to see my horse plush. Gimme gimme gimme. >:O

Shipment for the game and pre order bonus come seperately it seems.
I was able to get my Junpei hat maybe four days before P3P came out.

I haven't pre ordered GB, then again I wasn't exactly looking forward to this game.
Besides, I never get the plushie no matter how hard I try.

Actually you might be able to snag a horse. We had 5 preorders at our store and actually got in about 12 horses. I'm going to give them out to anyone who buys a Harvest Moon product after the preorder people pick theirs up

Also, I do work at GameStop, HMAddict.

^Is that the normal procedure? When I bought the strategy guide for IoH, the employee there asked if I wanted one of their extra cows, and I heard a story from someone else who said he had the same experience.

By the way, do the people who pre-ordered through Gamestop.com get the plushie, too, or is it just for people who go into the store?

Aww, yay! I'll be going in soon anyway to secretly preorder one for my cousin anyway... I hope.

Yeah that happened to me when Animal Parade came out. I went to Gamestop 3 days straight to try to get it and they gave me both the duck and piggy plushies beforehand. And I didn't even order Sunshine Islands. Then they wanted to give me another animal. I was nice enough to say no though.

Haha, I preordered both and went in a couple days too early to try and get it, and they gave me the two plushies then. On the day I picked it up, they tried to give me the plushies again.

I said what about those poor kids who preordered, and they said I was the only one, so I took an extra duck.

I dunno, when something 'cute' that's a preorder has been sitting in their drawer at our Gamestop for like months, they usually pawn it off on my husband and I. XD

I got the DS Cute cat that way, actually (buying the game and they had loads of extra kitties). Also the cute Oni from Little King's Story. Also a Ho-Oh preorder figure. Also *and the list goes on and on*

*sniff sniff* I wish this happened to me.

I want the other plushies too. Why didn't I go to Gamestop when those games came out?! I really wanted the cow, cat, and pig. I want them all actually.

I wonder what the next animal will be. I hope it's a sheep. I love HM sheep, they're so adorable.

I wouldn't mind a dog either.

So help me if they have given away all the plushies before the game came out or to other people who didn't preorder...

. Let's just say it won't be a very good day but I can't imagine the Gamestop I usually go to to do something like that cause the people there are awesome!

There have already been a dog and a sheep, actually, but they reused the cow once, so it's possible one or both will come around again.

Hmmm...I thought they used the sheep but I thought it was my imagination. Well I couldn't remember what the game was that it came with. So which games came with the sheep and dog plushies?
