Anyone know if the Quantic Dream Collection (Heavy Rain/Beyond Two Souls) is coming to retail in Canada?

I haven't been able to find any listings on Canadian retailer sites - I have a feeling it's getting Gravity Rush'd.

I think that unlike Gravity Rush, it's not even getting a physical release in the US.
 
Canceled one of my FE XL preorders, I may regret this.

I have to call to cancel my EB one right?

You ordered through the website? Then yeah you'd have to contact their customer service. They should be able to, I'll never forget the one time I ordered something online and tried to cancel but it was already processed and being shipped by the time I tried to get to it later that day.

Not a deal but I have nowhere else to post this and I need to:
I work in the electronics department of a Walmart and had a guy come in and get mad at me for not having Super Mario Maker for Xbox One. I didn't know this sort of thing still happened...

We live in an age where information can be easily gathered from the right places if they go out and look for it. I'm sure they'll realize it eventually.

When I worked at Blockbuster this was a regular thing.

heard the same kinda thing when I had to line up for preorders at EB

"man, I just wish they'd put Mario on the PS4."
 
I have a bunch of Wal Mart gift cards from Christmas but nothing has come up that I'm interested in getting there.

Can I use these gift cards to buy a prepaid Visa that they have in store? Then I can use it on Amazon or something.

Prepaid card is pretty much a cash. I assume, yes. I think it will work on other gift card on that store.

You're right, it looks like it's EU only for physical.

I just know that it'll be announced for NA a day after I go digital. Physical >>>>>> digital for me, always will be.

Yes, this works. (Used to do it all the time at Superstore.)

This happened to me with Evangelion 3.33, same form letter as I recall.

Of course, I got that very same item this week from Amazon, which makes the whole situation ridiculous. Thank goodness it didn't go back up with a higher price, because then I'd be pretty annoyed.
 
Should I be worried that my Amazon Fire Emblem Fates SE order still says the ETA is January 6th to 10th, 2017?

Mine still says I'm expected to get it between the 20th and March 6th. It's probably glitched like usual or maybe they expect a restock but don't know when exactly.
 
I hope amazon.ca does not cancel the Street Fighter V TE2 stick pre-orders.

Those were listed at $209.99 Canadian back when they first went up.


I think EB is selling the same sticks for $349.99 CDN.

I don't think that they'll cancel it but the fact that my order has no delivery estimate(I ordered as soon as they went up) bothers me...

I have a feeling that they'll "delay" it hoping that I cancel it or something...

sucks to have your ordered cancelled man. same thing happened to me when they cancelled my $15 the order premium edition (it was supposed to be $150 or something).

Someone see if Fularu is ok

Do ppl from the US have a delivery estimate yet?

I don't think this is an issue. Madcatz hasn't even ship their's out to customers yet I don't think. And they'll ship Amazon's stock to them at the same time so it'll take a while for them to receive stock and then ship it out.

I'm super OK :P

03:19 PM PST Amazon: I will keep a note to your account to help you with the discount.
03:19 PM PST Me: I no longer have any proof of the price I had the game for
Can you see my price ? because the item is no longer on my order
The 74.89$ price?
03:20 PM PST Amazon: Yes, I can see that the item price was Item Price: CDN$ 74.89.
You need not to worry, xxx. We will help you wth the 30% discount of the item price.
03:21 PM PST Amazon: Will that Okay?
03:21 PM PST Me: So my price when the item becomes available again will be 74.89$ minus 30%?
you can confirm it?
03:21 PM PST Amazon: Yes, sure.
If you prefer I can send the chat script to you?
 
trying to see if I can get a previous 30% off deal I'm cancelling replaced with Overwatch PC for my brother instead.

Here's hoping that it works out.

EDIT: It worked, Sankar's a fantastic CS Rep!
 
Speaking about XLs, I know lots of people with big hands tend to say they are better to play with, but I don't find it that way. Mines cramp up either way.
