It's fun to store arcade sticks. You guys think you have a problem? I have 400+ arcade sticks.

Also. I do work for Mad Catz, still. We did not lobby/rally to fuck anyone over.

And he's a sneaker head! I'm convinced your living space looks something like this:

And if it's not Mad Catz to "blame" (I don't even blame them, it's smart business. No one would buy a new stick if they could just use their old stick.) for the lack of compatibility between PS3 sticks with SFV, then who is it? Capcom? Sony? ugh. they allow it for SFIV but not SFV. super frustrating.
 
So we're all lining up outside of EB Games tomorrow morning... and if we come up empty we crash EBGames.ca at 1pm... and if we flame out there we stay awake all weekend until Best Buy deems it timely to put the Fates SE up for preorder and then we crash their website as well.

Have I got all of that straight?

Only if you don't get the main game at 30% off, at which point it'd be cheaper to buy the main game at 30% off ($35) and the two other campaigns outright if they're $25-26.

Or if like some people you got them for 22$ each :p

I'm still buying the SE tomorow no matter what

Yes and Amazon will also be a part of the madness.
 
Ahaha, my special edition got pushed back to December 8th when I checked the order status online. I remember it saying arriving as early as December 4th. They did charge me though. NOT 30% off, but 20% off. ffs.

Update: Amazon says "being shipped today." So we'll see how it goes.

Best time of year right here.

Guys I think there is a pricing error on the Amazon.ca!

The TES+ can be ordered for CDN$ 164.99 and the TES2 for CDN$ 204.99.

http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B018...=sr_1_4&sr=8-4

http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B018...=sr_1_1&sr=8-1

Go, go, go.

I couldn't decide which I wanted so I ordered both for now. With the crap Canadian dollar these will be in the $300 and over range when the correct prices go up.

Preordered both. I'll cancel later.

Those sticks are going to get gobbled up quickly. And being Street Fighter...the price will only go up afterwards.

Why does February have to be so damn expensive? Also, why would the Street fighter name increase the price eventually?

Damn. $51 for Xenoblade. This is pricey

Still better than $85-ish

I put in an order for both, will likely cancel one (if not both, but... god I need a PS4 fight stick since my Qanba Q4 will never work beyond Skullgirls)

When I bought my T2 earlier this year I checked around at some of the SF sticks that were already out and OOS. Prices were way above what the retailed for. I guess it would depend on stock and if they'll discontinue the stick or art of the stick.

I'm not dumb enough to waste days out of my life to take pics lol.

Yeah, I could relate to that. Would be cool even to see a couple of group pics though!

I ordered both too. It's too good a price. One of them will be a very nice gift.
 
It's like BB and FS charge/ship in reverse chronological order. Recent orders charged first. Then 2014 orders.

As for my 2013 order...

FWIW, Best Buy just charged me (17:41) for my E3 2014 Xenoblade Chronicles X order.
Click to expand...

nothing on my 2013 'Wii U X' yet. Amazon preorder hasn't budget yet either. It would be pretty silly if I end up having to go buy the game from EB or something despite having TWO preorders, one from years ago.
 
It seems like I got charged for my E3 2014 XCX preorder based on my credit card statement, but not entirely sure since the full info hasn't fully updated. No shipping emails/info but Best Buy has the shipping estimated as "Delivered as early as December 08."
