Mmmmmmmmm

Fuck it. I'm buying this.

Been bashing my head against the wall all week trying to decide if I wanted to get this or not since I only put a handful of hours into CS after loving the first BB. I'm terrible (never could adjust to the changes from CT to CS) but I will buy it for the Litchi as always.

Great choice. Though I don't know who I will be maining in CP, I played a ton of Litchi in CS. The only regret I have so far is Amazon is saying my delivery date is the 27th. Prime, why are you failing me?

I made a small mistake about the Six Heroes roster; Jubei should be there instead of Celica. (I have no idea why she's in CP, but I look forward to finding out.)


Anyone getting the LE? I'm tempted, but we'll see. This is also Deception (I)V Week.

ah yeah i saw that in the PM but forgot about it.

I'm going to hold out and see how the translation went. Extend's was horrible and Arc System Work is doing the translation again.

Also, the DLC characters are ticking me off a bit.

Sucks that the digital version was delayed, added some cash to my US account hopping to import early. Guess I gotta wait another week.

So, er....this game comes out in the States today right? I pre-ordered a while ago on Amazon but it looks like it hasn't shipped yet. ¯\ ( ツ) /¯

Oh yea, I totally don't mind waiting however long, I'm still knee deep in Dark Souls 2 and Infamous 2, but there's like absolutely no hype about this game on its US release. I assume everyone that cared imported?

Amazon's been a little weird with some of the smaller releases this week.

Xseed and Aksys tend to fuck up releases often. This is not surprising. I'm not holding my breath on Amazon shipping my pre-ordered LE this week. In fact it's currently marked as out of stock, ugh.

For people preordering the physical copy, if you're not interested in your Terumi code, I wouldn't mind buying a couple of them.

hmmm :( "Shipment #1: Not Yet Shipped" and amazon.ca shows out of stock for the LE. I hope this doesn't mean I won't get my copy late.

No, they just tend to treat the release date as the ship date. As by shipping it out themselves and such on the date.

The Aksys PR rep answered me on the PS blog, confirmed that amazon.ca did get their stock shipped to them. So it's coming, just late (as usual).

So, I forgot this was coming out in the US finally and didn't pre-order. I have a vague recollection that one of the new characters was locked away as DLC and you had to pre-order to get them for free? Is that right?

Are all the new characters on the disc? Or how many DLC characters are there for the NA version?

man I really hate aksys release availability. preordered off amazon back in november, they say 3 weeks to ship so I cancel yesterday.

today only gamestop has the LEs in my area, and all of them (every....single....one) is for preorders only. I've been dealing with horrible aksys physical game availability for a while but I think this is my final straw.

anyway, happy BB release day everyone.

wait I cant even get the digital today?!? goddamn aksys wtfffffffffffffff

why do I even get my hopes up after the +R debacle

It's Terumi if you pre-order retail, and Kokonoe if you pre-order digital version (which won't be out till next week). Not sure about when they'll be buyable separately. And all the new chars should be on the disk in some fashion, otherwise you couldn't play people with the DLC ones.

So if you didn't pre-order, you have to buy them for like $5-6?

In Québec you can't even find most Aksys (and Xseed) games in a retail store because they can't be bothered to do bilingual packaging like everybody else.

why are they so far behind even the basic standards these days...

they have some killer IPs, but they are sure a tough company to be a diehard fan of sometimes.

AKSYS WTF.

Well Ive tried over 10 stores and I'm giving up. Should change the title to "WHATS RELEASE DAY DISTRIBUTION?!?"

After all my whining I was able to score a LE, thanks to a mom and pop shop that got 2 copies.

I think the plan was to change this thread's title and OT to modify it into the NA release OT?
Click to expand...

Just removing the "Import" from the title is fine or should I change the subtitle so it's more obvious this is for NA release? Can't think of anything for the latter though. Give me some ideas and I'll put it in with a mod when I get back.

I added some NA details like release date and NA links to the OP already. Not much change though; I could get rid of the import notes too?

One of their employees on Twitter said 99% of the time, Tuesday is the ship date for them. That just means a wait till a day or two later for most.

in my area it's really hit or miss when it comes to aksys stuff being stocked. most of the stores (gamestop, best buy) don't even bother to carry their games anymore, and if they do they get 1 or 2 copies.

I could deal with a day or two if I knew it was coming. but everyone I talked to gave me blank faces when I mentioned BB today. I remember when trying to buy VLR for vita...it was a mess.

That all being said, I dunno why they ship on tuesday when it creates situations like this (especially when some places had it in as early as friday of last week). Anyway sorry for my ranting heh.

I remember when I was the only one that got Continuum Shift (or Extend) LE, and I was the oooooooonly one who ordered it at GameStop. They gutted my copy ;_;

The DLC is not limited to preorders, but 1st printing, according to the site.

and anyone who is buying digital is getting ass fucked out of using Terumi for 2 months from the sounds of it. At this point if you want a complete game it's best to just get retail and drop 8 bucks on koko in a week.
