Pre-order & Shipping Discussion

[Celestrian]

It is definitely not worth going to a store at midnight if you already pre ordered the game, imo. I have to work both the day it comes out and the day after so I may not be able to log too many hours in at the start.

I preordered a physical copy at my local GameStop. Honestly, if it were a less niche title which could actually sell out (or a first party title released at midnight on the eShop), I would most likely do a digital download. But as it is a third party title and I am running out of room on my SD card anyway, not to mention that I live within walking distance of said GameStop, I will simply pick it up on release day.

Mainly, I am just excited that I have Tuesday off of work, so I can just walk to GameStop as early as possible after opening, pick 3oT up, and farm my day away.

@Kikki: I hope the game that riveting! I've used gravol before but never preemptively so even I don't know how effective it is.. I think i'd prefer to avoid having to take stuff just to be able to play in the car though XD

Back to topic aaa only two more days!! I plan to pick up my copy at lunch and play aaaalll day. I don't think my local store is having a midnight launch but even if it did that would require me to go out when it's really dark (no car) and then the temptation to stay up all night playing would be too strong.

this happened to me a few days ago with ebgames but it turned out to be the starter kit for my Switch pre-order. Still no update on shipping for this though

All I have is a switch screen protector and some joy con grips to hold and pretend I'm playing BotW with...sad, sad

Oh no that sucks D: Hope all your orders ship soon!

I was actually looking at maybe securing a copy on bestbuy.ca since they usually have pretty decent day one shipping, but it's apparently completely sold out there. Also sold out on ebgames online. That's good that it at least seems like it's selling decently!

That's crazy, I'm pretty sure ebgames had it in stock a day or so ago (I checked quite a bit to see if they would change the shipping date at all), VGP still has it but I've never gotten same day shipping from them before https://www.videogamesplus.ca/story-sea ... befdfb1850

Mine is from VGP and it shipped 3 days ago, but I live in Europe so maybe they send those first cos they take longer to arrive. Also preordered in October so that could explain it as well.

I wasn't going to get it on release since I have a lot of other games to play already, but EB got me with some of their trade-in promotions. It was too good to pass up so I traded in a game and am now picking up 3oT on realease day for 50% off :D

Lucky Anonymous Fish You got a half-price game.

Good news, my game is delivered.
Bad news? It's by usps, who ALWAYS scans my package early (around 10 am as usual). I know it will be delivered today but I have work at 5 am so I can't spend long on the game if it doesn't come within the next two hours..

Amazon shipped my package~ it was expected to ship 2 days ago but w/e

Looks like it's due to get here right on time in the afternoon on Tuesday since it's USPS.

I just checked my bank account and Amazon has removed the money for the game as of today. The order says "shipping today" but they don't have any details yet.

Mine makes sense to ship today because they upgraded me to one day shipping, but for everybody else, I hope your games come in time!

[ryume]

WOOT! Mine shipped today, and it's being delivered by USPS, which means it will be delivered a few hours earlier than if it were coming by UPS

[FoolishGhoul]

My amazon account says it shipped already, so I'm excited to play it when I get back from visiting family! Very convenient that the game came out the same week as my spring break

[Arcy]

Mine are finally "preparing for shipment". Whew.
