LOL no-one knows.

Has anyone in the UK got their Pork/Sweets from AmiAmia yet? Mine's been sat in customs for days Even more depressing to know that when it comes out I'll probably have another £20 at least to pay

You should contact the customs, perhaps they are missing the invoice, in which case they are waiting for you to provide the information.

[superquake]

Just called Parcelforce, aparently just this morning it's cleared customs and is now on its way up the country. Should be with me within 48 hours. Can't wait

[superquake]

My wife just texted me... PORK/SWEETS HAS ARRIVED! Nothing to pay on the door, either. Here's hoping I don't get a bill from Parcelforce through the post in a few days

Just received my order for MMP and PS and it was the very first time in like 10 years ordering from NCSX that I got dinged by CanadaPost.

I was shocked when it happened. But the good thing is I didn't have to pay anything outrageous, only tax and a a small handling fee.

Play Asia already has Akai Katana for pre-order!

[TrevHead (TVR)]

Im wanting to buy Futari but play asia is back ordered and with this earthquake I dont know when theyll be restocked. So after a quick google search ive found that the site Renchi has it in stock.

(ive never heard of them) How reliable are they for shipping to the UK? Im in no great rush to buy the game and will wait untill play-asia restocks if theres doubts about them.

Bought from them before, no problems. IIRC (was some time ago) they were reasonably fast.

Yep. And we already knew that the game had been pushed back indefinitely. They also sent this:

ESPGALUDA II:PLATINUM COLLECTION (aff.link)

You really can't go wrong for 35$

If anyone is still looking for MMP/Pink Sweets SE w/ DLC, http://www.japanvideogames.com still has one copy left. They also have a $10 off $100 Google Checkout coupon.

In addition, otakufuel.com and eGameStar on Ebay both say remaining stock has the DLC sticker.

Will the cheaper Asian version of bulletsoul also be region free?

http://www.play-asia.com/Bullet_Soul/pa ... -46tw.html

[StarCreator]

Bullet Soul has shipped from NCS, adding to the three UPS shipments already due to arrive tomorrow from Amazon. That's going to be a lot of cardboard to recycle...

[emphatic]

A message for vgi customers:

Eschatos now has a confirmed release date in Japan of April 7th.

Bullet Soul has kept it's April 7th release date.

Normally, we'd be receiving these games by Friday, April 8th, but with all of the problems in Japan and the fact that our suppliers are still in some turmoil, we don't expect to receive the games until early next week. We're guessing Tuesday, April 12th, but we won't know for sure until Friday or Monday.

Unsold stocks of the game are running quite low, so it's entirely possible that we will have sold out of both games before they actually arrive OR there will be a more expensive 2nd batch arriving just after the first batch, so we'd recommend anyone interested in these titles to put a preorder in if they haven't already done so.

OMG NCSX SHIPPED MY COPY OF ESCHATOS TODAY JUST THOUGHT I'D TELL THE WORLD

[Special World]

Dammit, NCSX still hasn't shipped me Eschatos or Bullet Soul. Bullet Soul is understandable since I just ordered it yesterday, but I've had Eschatos on pre-order for like a month :\

DAMN SKIPPY

They had a notice that they ran out of their first batch of pre-orders on 2/28. If you submitted your order after 2/28, you're SOL until the second shipment arrives in a week or so.

ALL CAPS LIKE CAPT!

Not necessarily. I ordered on 3/4 and my copy went out today. (...to the address I just moved from /fail)

I was kinda hoping that the delay meant NCS could get a larger first shipment, and my order would fall into that group. Never expected it to actually happen...awesome.

They actually ended up shipping both my games, probably because I had an ancient Eschatos pre-order and a recent Bullet Soul pre-order. I guess they decided it was more economical than shipping them separately. Awfully nice of them, I really do love NCSX. Probably still won't get my games till Monday, though.

Unless you meant that they only had a shortage of Eschatos, but Bullet Soul seems to me like it would be the more popular shooter.

[CptRansom]

ESCHATOS IS AT MY LOCAL POST OFFICE

FURTHER BULLETINS AS EVENTS WARRANT

[emphatic]

Eschatos and Bullet Soul has been shipped to all customers from VGI (unless your card was denied, check your emails if so).

[everlust]

I was so hyped for both Bullet Soul and Eschatos. Last minute before paying for both, i bailed.
Reason being, that i have barely scratched the surface of any other recent STG releases, Futari included.

I wonder if I'll be able to snag the first print of either games for a similar price later in the year. : (

OT, Ordered Esp2 Platinum for a mate though.

EDIT: Ended up paying for Eschatos only. SHIPPED SHIPPED SHIPPED! xD

Let's hope that God damn volcano doesn't screw us Europeans this time.

This year overall has been shit for shipping damn earthquakes,tsunamis and fucking volcanoes.
