The Pre-order updates thread! (Region free crap welcome too)

It's price-dropped? It's still going for at least $60 on online shops.

[Elixir]

Seeing the LE for under 4000 yen after having paid 10,000 shipped fucked me right off. My bowels were not ready.

[Sapz]

DFK finally arrived yesterday. About damn time.

[Exarion]

Just preordered MMP/PS SE from NCSX. They ended up being the cheapest with reasonably fast shipping.

At last check, the prices in the Japanese market were so low that you could pay a courier to buy it for you and reship and still come out ahead. Unfortunately, it's uncommon for import shops to drop their prices as well, as they've likely already paid the original price to obtain their stock and would just be throwing away money if they did.

Where are these prices you speak of? Any links?

Quick check on Amazon.co.jp:
Limited edition ￥4,839
Regular edition ￥5,130 (￥3,683 used)

Yes, the limited edition is currently cheaper than the regular edition new. (The regular edition is also currently only available via third party sellers, not Amazon themselves.)

These prices are actually a little higher than I remember them being last time I checked. I think it's finally drying up supply-side, so the prices are edging back up a bit.

So this brings me to my next question. Why so low?

Still waiting for DFK (LE) from play-asia. Should I be worried?

With the holidays season yes I would be terrified

[StarCreator]

Did they ship it already, or are you waiting for it to leave their warehouse still?

Both Play-Asia and NCS are showing it as being in stock, so I don't think you have to worry about them running out. Assuming you got one of the cheaper shipping options, if it shipped out near release date and still hasn't arrived you might want to prod customer support about it and see if they'll ship out another one.

[emphatic]

Videogameimports now accept pre-orders for DFK BL.

[stuntman]

It shipped 25th November (Air Economy Box Registered). According to their helpdesk FAQs "under certain circumstances it can take up to 4-5 weeks". I suppose it could still arrive in time for Christmas

EDIT: I just sent them a message. I've waited long enough!

[Elixir]

If it's registered, why not look up the tracking number?

[msm]

Still waiting for DFK (LE) from play-asia. Should I be worried?

unclear. mine (SE) hasn't arrived yet either if its of any consolation. i'll probably contact them when its been over a month, stuff has taken this long before though.

[stuntman]

Well, it arrived today. Yeehaw!

[RNGmaster]

CRIMZON CLOVER EEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

This game makes me scream like a little girl near Justin Bieber.

[dunpeal2064]

Is there enough info to add Sturmwind to the list? I remember looking it up and it looks pretty sweet.

[gs68]

Just preordered DFKBL. Something's up with preorders for it on Play-Asia, so I ordered off YesAsia instead for $54 ($59 - $5 coupon for ordering Ketsui the other day).

Which is a pretty good price for a JP-region console game, considering that I paid that much for DeathSmiles NA (although that has more content).

[drunkninja24]

Does anyone know if there's a way to track shipments from the ngdevteam store? They said they shipped my copy of Fast Striker a week ago, but I've heard nothing since and there doesn't seem to be a tracking number on my invoice. Not too worried, just curious....

[Van_Artic]

ok, i got a ntsc-j 360 (together with DFK LE), but DFKBL isn't available for preorder on playasia. WTF???

[mesh control]

Pretty strange to see ncsx open up pre-orders before play asia.

[Vyxx]

The world is slowly becoming a better place.

[Kollision]

NCSX has been better than play-asia for years now, at least for us South American importers.
DFKBL, MMP/PS and BS all queued there already.

[apple arcade]

Dai-Fukkatsu BLACK LABEL now up for pre-order @ play-asia <-----Affiliate Link

Exactly

[StarCreator]

Bullet Soul is now up for preorder at NCS.

[gs68]

Any day now I hope for a ship notification on my DFKBL.

[everlust]

Anyone know if DFKBL pre-orders come with any bonus of some sort?

Pre-ordered at amiami ages ago and just wondering since i received my "Order is ready" email just awhile ago.

[dan76]

Videogameimports have posted out all DFK BL preorders - they got their delivery a day early - not long now...
