Police are tracking your ip as we speak.

Spoiler

j/k

They might check the serial on the receipt to see if it matches the console.

Someone just said that all games have the same bar code.

So yeah, I'm not waiting on a backorder that I ordered day one on the site.

 

[zroid]

I'm not sure how they handled the pre-orders, though.

Spoiler

I'm jelly

 

[puffyshirt]

can I buy SM3D World tomorrow at gamestop or something, then next week return the unopened one I got from futureshop back to gamestop so I still get the game for $40?

would I be breaking any laws

Aww, you're cute. No,you won't be breaking any laws. I do this all the time when games ship late.

 

[ohlawd]

like others, BB shipped my Zelda and the treasure box.

I hope it doesn't come tomorrow. If it does, it means I have to waste an hour or two playing it when I could be using that valuable time playing 3D World.

 

[balohna]

3D WORLD SHIP GET.

I didn't do the E3 promo though, for me it was a Gamescom promo. If I'm getting it before people that ordered it from BB during an E3 promo, I am truly sorry for your lots.

 

[Firestorm]

Mario 3D World and Zelda shipped. Now to figure out if I buy a WiiU or not.

 

[B-Dex]

Amazon changed my xbone to shipping soon. Jerks holding it till tomorrow.

 

[firehawk12]

3d world is backordered at FS? You can still buy it though. God damnit.

I do it all the time. It's legitimate. May do this myself.

Also, I received a tracking number for my Xbone this morning from FS but it hasn't updated at all. Canada Post still gives me that no tracking number exists bullshit. Making me a little nervous.

 

[illmatic19]

So, um, does anyone know how much credit I can get trading in COD: Ghost (360) at future shop?

 

[zroid]

Backordered no longer. My card was charged for 3D World!

Seems way too late to ship tonight though, but maybe...

 

[Zing]

My local Microplay had a stack of Mario 3D World. They wouldn't sell one to me. Their loss, as I will just buy it somewhere else in the morning. Probably Futureshop to use my $60 gift card.

 

[Maximus.]

Disappointed FS or BB dont have a trade 1 for Zelda

 

[Zing]

So, um, does anyone know how much credit I can get trading in COD: Ghost (360) at future shop?

It was $21 last week. EBGames is still giving $30.

 

[Lexxism]

20% off in SDM. Buy it!

 

[firehawk12]

Isn't EB still doing the upgrade thing and FS still offering 40 for next gen games? Why not upgrade it for and get 40. Although I guess that works out to be the same if you want EBGames credit.

I just got my charge too.

So back order may have just been CSR misinformation.

Your $60 wouldn't soothe the pain if Nintendo found out and stopped shipping to them.

Actually, Nintendo would probably be hesitant to stop a store from selling Wii U stuff...

 

[The Elite]

Charged for Zelda and Super Mario.

My xbox one updated to item processed at Canada post.

 

[-Deimos]

Uh, so I just got my cashback from ebates deposited into paypal today which is weird because that's supposed to happen in February. Can't complain, though.

 

[veras]

Has anyone had an Amazon Xbox One ship?

Mine has been at "Shipping Now" for like 12 hours, Amazon is run by monsters

My friend texted me that his had shipped from amazon, although he's not getting it until tuesday

 

[KJA]

Just got off the phone with FutureShop. Seems that those of us who have not received confirmation for Mario have been placed on backorder!

I filed a complaint asking them to explain to me why I was on backorder when I placed the order on the first day it was available from them, while other people I know who placed orders within the past two weeks have received confirmation.

Man, fuck this shit.

I knew something was up. I guess I'll try my luck at Best Buy this weekend to pick up a copy (and use those useless RZ coupons that still I have).

 

[ChosenPredator]

I'm still blown away not one person is in the line

 

[Ramblin]

I'm still blown away not one person is in the line

In line for what?

 

[Lexxism]

^ Xbone?

 

[ChosenPredator]

Yeah xbone in mississauga

 

[Ramblin]

I guess that might be surprising, and this is coming from someone that has primarily been a one console guy and after dreamcast that console was xbox and son, but when you charge more for a console that doesn't perform as well, and you do it a week later, I'm not surprised. Except that there aren't more ebayers. And as much as I don't want to spend more, as much as I am annoyed by the demonstrations of kinect, I am faintly hoping I will find one before christmas..,..although I'm hoping more that I won't so I won't be tempted.

 

[Dunlop]

nice!

Just checked and no luck for me

That shop.ca/ebates special was awesome but I know find myself with

COD
BF4
AC4
extra DS4 ($20 off at Amazon)
...and no console for another couple of weeks lol

anyone know if FS still has the trade in PS4 game for $40? I have way too many FPS's (by bundle comes with KZ also) and might just trade in 2 and get Marvel Lego or something else

 

[MoeB]

Yeah xbone in mississauga

bestbuy?

 

[Goodacre0081]

pics plz

 

[Zing]

No scalpers for the Xbox, maybe that is the difference?

I'm hoping for Xbox to have a terrible first day of sales… just so I can walk into Futureshop and buy 3D World at 10am with no delays.

You... have GOT to be kidding me. This is going to hold up my Zelda too, since they're on the same shipment!

 

[ChosenPredator]

Ebgames south common mall
I'll upload in a bit

 

[Cynar]

EBgames in Hamilton was still taking preorders for Xbox one. Not selling as well as ign says it is IMO.

An Ebgames at that? Huh, is it an off the beaten path? A rough neighbourhood?

depends where you are

It could be a sign, but Hamilton isn't necessarily representative of what its like in the States

 

[Chatin]

Got Zelda and Mario both coming, finally. Guess I have to hope for Monday. Glad I seemed to dodge this backorder issue.

Tons of people in line at Futureshop in downtown Edmonton for the Xbone launch. I haven't been following, so I'm not aware if there is a midnight launch or not. Do they really need to be lined up so early? Are Xbone preorders not all covered?

 

[ChosenPredator]

Pretty good area had 100 plus people for ps4 now like 4-5 in my line lol

 

[Ramblin]

Shit. I pass by a ebgames everyday on my way to work....I'm never going to have the willpower to resist, I'm just going to have to spend all my saving at the LCBO before I do anything crazy.

 

[soultron]

University Plaza? I remember going there when I went to McMaster. Always pretty busy for midnight launches. Easily 200+ people for every game launch I went to.

 

[Tabris]

Apparently there's a decent line at Granville and Robson Futureshop in Vancouver? I'm wondering whether I go there at midnight (have to work tomorrow, don't have time or energy to line up) or just pick up from London Drugs below me.

 

[jet1911]

I think I'll go to FS tomorrow morning. Maybe I'll be lucky enough to win an Xbone if no one is waiting in line.

 

[Tabris]

Anyone going to line up in Vancouver Futureshop?

EDIT - Called FS, 20 people lined up, and apparently they didn't get much stock, a fraction of what they were expecting.

 

[bPod]

I have my preorder waiting for me to pick up tomorrow afternoon

don't screw me over, gamestop

 

[Cactus]

You... have GOT to be kidding me. This is going to hold up my Zelda too, since they're on the same shipment!

Same with me. I don't mind waiting the extra few days, but I don't understand why some people who ordered after I did (my cousin, for example), already received their shipment confirmation.

 

[Xpite]

Futureshop still hasn't charged my credit card for Mario. Is anyone else still waiting for a charge or shipment?

Not only I never get them on the release date, but now they backorder me? Never again, FS.

Mine always come in days after release date too (Ottawa). First time preordering with FS cause of the e3 deal, and definitely not doing it again in the future. I thought the whole point of preordering was so that you were guaranteed to play the game on release.
