Wasn't a national holiday ergo Canada Post still workin

Awesome. I guess another reason I didn't check is because I didn't expect Amazon to ship the game early considering potential delays I've been seeing from everyone.

Also I was playing the game on PC... :x

Did you get a notification that Amazon shipped it?
 
Welp, looks like I won't be getting SFV from Amazon until Feb 22-23. I'm probably just going to get it on PSN, but unfortunately going to miss the pre-order bonus. :(

P.S. is the game supposed to be $59.99 on PSN? Could've sworn it was $69.99 when I check last night.
Last week was the naruto pricing error, before that was digimon, this week is this

I already have physical preordered at 47 bucks with the discount and tax applied but for just 12 more bucks I could just get it off psn..

It's a nice price. I'm tempted even though I mainly want to do single player and that won't come for a while (properly, anyway)...
 
Not sure it has been mentioned, but Best Buy is having a 20% off preorder deal right now if you preorder 2 or more.

Guess I will reorder Pokken with them.

Edit: Adding more than 2 games to an order and it seems to only apply the discount to two games. Guess you will need to keep the orders to quantities of 2.
 
Fight stick aficionados:

Where do people usually buy their fightstick parts? I was going to order 8 sanwa buttons for my fightstick, but Canadianjoysticks only have 3 buttons of the color I want left, and shipping is 12 bucks, which isn't much, but I wouldn't mind waiting longer for cheaper shipping.

Also, anyone order from focusattack.com? They seem to be the only ones who sell octo-gates for the hayabusa stick, though it's sold out at the moment.

Lastly, anyone have experience adjusting things like getting thicker actuators and tighter springs?


Thanks. I figure I might as well call my local arcade for advice too, but it's the only place in the area that I think would have employees who know.

Son of a b!tch. THey dropped the price by $10. I just bought it yesterday for the Chun Li skin.
 
Not sure whether this has been posted yet. Last week I posted the Grand Kingdom deal on Amazon.ca for $99. Today I saw the Limited Edition for Stranger of Sword City for the Vita up for $89.99. Without shipping (which is usually $20 or so to Canada), the game on the NISA store converts to $82.91. Those interested may want to jump on this deal.

Seems like Amazon.ca is getting into stocking NISA LEs. Honestly can't see why, but I'll be thankful for it. Better than dealing with shipping + customs from the NISA store.

Also, 7th Dragon III Code: VFD ($49.99) is up on Bestbuy too and part of the pre-order deal if you want to get in on that.
 
So I forgot to update my shipping address...

Normally it would take 1-2 days to deliver... I will take a gamble and do nothing.
 
Anyone else have issues trying to checkout TMNT(PS4) at bestbuy and getting the discount?

I get this message:
The following errors occurred:
We're sorry, one or more items in your order are not available for shipment but may be available for Reserve and Pick Up. Please remove Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants in Manhattan (PS4) from your cart to proceed with this order. If you would still like the item(s), please Reserve them separately on the product page(s). (0107)

it shows the discount and everything but it won't let me checkout for some reason.

Tried it and got the same error.
 
I checked PSN this morning and SFV is now $59.99. This is on the Canadian PSN as well. Was that chun-li skin really worth the $20?

Price error in your favour.

This is the usual fuck up of pricing the Canadian version at the US price point that seems to happen on release day.
 
Lol. I debated for weeks whether I should try and sell my physical copy ($44 from amazon) and pick this up. It looks so good but definitely not worth the extra money.

I want to know if we can earn that skin in-game

No. It will probably be on sale eventually.
 
Trying to get a hold of Playstation Customer Service now. I purchased the game yesterday at $70. It shouldn't drop $10 the day after. Those were pre-order BONUSES. You're not suppose to pay for something that's a bonus.

That's wack. I rarely purchase anything on the PlayStation Store, now I don't even wanna touch it anymore. How can Sony even allow this?

The price was $69.99 so $10 not $20, but yea thats bullshit I should contact them for a refund, I had to do the same thing when driveclub came out.
 
BestBuy's tracking page for online orders is honestly shit.

Cannot cancel single orders without cancelling the whole thing or calling in, doesn't tell you what's in each order on the order page so you have to manually click every one, and it's just slow and unresponsive.

It's an unfortunate issue when preordering digital in Canada. I want to go digital on The Division. Waiting means the price could go up do to the dollar. If I don't wait and order now I may get screwed out of a day one price error.

With SFV, I believe I actually preordered when it was $59.99 on PSN they day it went up.
 
Best Buy still doesn't have the regular edition of Bravely Second for preorder. I was hoping to be able to preorder with the 20% off thing going on.
