Fire Emblem Fates Releases in NA Feb. 19th; $80 Special Edition Announced

Has anyone who ordered on Nov 12th from Amazon gotten their copy (or been charged) of the CE?

I ordered on the 12th and it shipped this morning. Arriving tomorrow via USPS...

edit: the funny thing is I also ordered from Best Buy as soon as it went up but canceled that order a few days ago because I figured there wouldn't be any problem getting it from Amazon
 
Just got my shipping notice, so that's good. Also, I'm funny enough in the opposite position of several previous posters who mentioned the Mega Man Collection shipped for them, as I'm still waiting on that one to move. Still, as I'm probably not going to play that for a bit and there were no emails proclaiming month long delays, I'm not terribly worried about my copy of Gold Mega Man Amiibo that also happens to come with a game.
 
At what point should I be worried if my SE doesn't ship? I got in pretty early on the change shipping address -> preparing thing last night.

Same, though I changed my shipping speed around 8:30AM EST. Not sure how they're processing all the orders, but seeing all the ones that have shipped has me worried.

After 8pm. UPS usually cuts off shipment by then.

Meaning, it doesnt matter if UPS ships your item at 9am, or at 6pm. Orders all get packed into 1 day of delivery.
 
Amazon CS got back to me saying they ran out of stock. They did upgrade my shipping from two day to one day which is kinda funny since I probably wont receive it for another month or so (if at all).
 
Picked mine up at BB just now. The clerk said mine was the only one that came in, he said he has been getting tons of calls about it.

For those of you who ordered online, why? It's much more reliable with in-store pickup. Unless you don't have a BB nearby, I guess.

I don't have a Best Buy nearby. Regardless, if Best Buy offers shipping they should deliver on it. In this day and age if you can't properly process online orders I wouldn't expect you will survive too long.

Got my shipping confirmation! We in there! I can kinda stop complaining now.

Not really. You should have received it on release day. Not to mention there is likely to be some that won't receive their copy. Regardless of what happens, I can't say I'm pleased.
 
I called CS as a safety precaution and they said it's guaranteed to come by the 23rd and they wouldn't put something in the preparing for shipping stage if they didn't have it. I asked if that meant it'll be shipped today, and was simply reassured it would arrive by the 23rd, lol.

I really hope it ships soon so I can stop stressing about it x_X
 
Those of you that are getting your orders shipped out today, did you get a separate email or did you just spam refresh on the order summary page?

The "upside" is that we will probably get an email in a few days offering some store credit. At least they did that when they shipped the Smash bundles late.
 
Those stickers peel very easily though without damage, especially if they're recently applied.

Best Buy's stickers are the easiest of any to remove. There was one on my Smash 4 controller bundle and I removed it without any damage.

True, it is easy to take the sticker out. Still, I noticed pixels of paint from the box missing and ended up on the sticky side. Sure, I may be nitpicking about this but the same BB before held a game in a cardboard box but was housed in a case with the sticker on it.

Oh well, at least I got it. Feel bad for the ones that had their LE sold when it was a preorder.
 
Shipped with a tracking number here as well. In the end, the main issue for me is that they didn't manage release day delivery on this one like they pleasantly surprised me with on a couple other pre-orders.

Edit: talking about Best Buy
 
Amazon changed the status of my order to Not Yet Shipped with No Delivery Estimate...
Very sad... Should have ordered from Gamestop. I ordered as soon as the preorders went up too!
 
Stuff like this is why I never preorder ninte do stuff online always safer to do in store if possible even if it costs you a few extra dollars.
 
awesome for those of you that got shipping confirmation :)
sadly my order is still prepping for shipping atm, hoping to get the shipping confirmation and i'll stop worrying.

Got mine from gamestop a few hours ago. Playing a few chapters right now.

Unfortunately, that's not always possible. I also try to place multiple pre-orders as a backup but this one I couldn't. Hopefully, I'll just have to wait a little longer, but it really shouldn't be this difficult to get a preorder.
 
didn't know about those keychains, what are they??

You get these keychains if you preordered them from Gamestop. Funny thing I learn about these keychains, when you scanned the barcode on them in the stores computer, it goes for $1000. I guess Gamestop don't want any shenanigans happening with their employees for these keychains.
