I sprung for a copy for the sake of playing one of the best games ever made.

I should have mine tomorrow! :)

...and I have the day off!!!!!!!!
I only have one teevee and it's a 26" CRT (or 28"...? I dunno). I also don't do DLC, so if I bought this it'd probably be sealed/unplayed with... on a shelf collecting dust. Somewhere in the world, Skykid's ear is burning angrily hahah 8)

I already have my tracking number and the package has been picked up. If all goes well it'll be here for Friday. If not than certainly Monday.

Shipped about 22 hours ago from NCS \o/ Apparently Monday and Friday aren't business days though, as it says "3 business days left", but delivery is expected by the end of tuesday :?:

UPS Ground isn't exactly speedy when you're on the other side of the country. Also, Monday is Memorial Day.

Also received my LE copy from playasia. Never ceases to amaze me how they can throw that little package on that giant transport at the last minute and have it to your house half way around the world in hardly a day. :shock:

Ugh. Canada Post says it hit customs at 7pm. That means there's a 50/50 chance i get it tomorrow. Fingers crossed, otherwise it'll be a boring weekend.

Just fyi, I recently had a order of Ginga Force that they lowered the price on halfway through, and they emailed me saying they'd deduct the price from the order. So I think you're fine if you ordered from PA.

Ugh, starting to get a little worried about my shipment of Caladrius from P-A....ordered economy bubble shipping, got a shipment notice April 24....and nothing yet. Longest I've had a package from them take is 2 weeks from the ship date, so I'm hoping it didn't get lost or something....

Got my SDOJ SLE today from NCSX. They didn't send a shipping notice email but I like that it only takes a day for their games to reach me. It's a nice boxset :D

I ordered SDOJ from Nin Nin Game and I still haven't received it. The tracking says it arrived in the UK on the 1st of June, so I assume it's lost. I've just contacted the support but I'm not sure how good their customer service is. Did anyone else order from Nin Nin? I've ordered from them before and never had any problems.

Was reminded about this thread and added The Ghost Blade to the DC pre-order list.
