Bought a GameCube adaptor at the Eb Games at Southgate in Edmonton. Still had 3 left after I bought mine. Good luck!

Nothing, not even a delivery estimate.

It doesn't seem like DualShock 4 prices have gone up at Walmart or Costco yet.

Was just going to reply to your earlier post with a Costco mention - I was over there tonight and so, so tempted to buy one just because the price is going up.
I should have.
Future Press facebook says it should be shipping out by Thursday

Thanks. I appreciate the thought. It's really bugging me that prices are going up, because I can't work and am waiting to go on disability.
I'm going to get my friend to drive me to Costco like he's been wanting, if I need to, but will try Walmart first.
I should've kept the $39.99 one I picked up, as I could've exchanged it through Sony if it was defective. But my OCD got the better of me.
Anyone else preorder MKX from bestbuy and still not get it shipped yet? It was in stock earlier today but now it's back ordered.
At this point I'm thinking of ignoring this game and waiting for a komplete edition.
Edit: Got an automated email saying my order couldn't be processed because method of payment (PayPal) didn't go through, even though my PayPal worked just fine a few weeks ago for bloodborne.
I tried to switch to my credit card but their shitty site won't let me so I have to find some time between work to remember to call them up and fix things.

I pre-ordered it as part of the E3 deal from BB. Apparently it's out for delivery right now finally. I didn't wait. Once I realized it wasn't going to get to me on release day (and I had no idea WHEN it would get to me), I pre-ordered the premium edition on PSN a couple of hours before release.
It's still worth getting despite all that microtransaction shittiness IMO.
I've had that happen a few times and I complained to the ombudsman about it. After several months I finally got this long official report about the examples I provided them with super detailed information about what happened to each one. It was so impressively detailed about every step of the way I kind of felt bad about complaining...
"Redirected to new address" means it was sent on the wrong delivery route and had to go back to the sorting facility.
Basically human error.
It should come in the next day or two.
Pm at bestbuy would be $26 then right? Unless they match the price.
Hmmmm I'd be tempted at that price.
Tempting. But not sure if want.
Ooh, I want that Xbox One version of The Order, that's probably pretty hard to find
I hope they don't go up tomorrow, I don't have time to grab one today and I want to a) pricematch the Costco price at Best Buy and b) use up some of these Future Shop gift cards.
My R1 button is sticking and forward on the left analog stick is starting to give out.
I'm just going to wait for it to hit PS+, personally. And then I'd only play it for the easy platinum.
Thanks man! Waiting to do my NG+ run through until I get it!

Is that the new base price?

Anyone able to check order status on the Future Shop web portal? I'm going to an error screen after trying to log on
Are they packaged properly this time?
WinterDemons

The packaging was like those grey/white bubble mailers except no bubble wrap inside. Like this except there's no flap and I had to tear the package open.
I guess it's better than the smash cd. I guess anything is better compared to that lol.

Maybe they'll go on sale?
I wouldn't want to buy a used controller. Who knows how well worn they are, if there's anything wrong with them (or close to it), how clean they are, etc.
People abuse their stuff.
reSpec Gaming

I buy used stuff all the time. Just test the controller first.
Edit: As someone who doesn't own a PS4 and only knows what he reads from the Internets, my only concern would be I hear Dualshock 4's have crappy durability. And are they not warrantied anyway? So buying new has no advantage over used in that sense? I could be wrong about that one.
How is the game on the Vita?
I have it on the PS3 I think (PS+) but I've still never played it.

Yeah, waiting myself. 20 is the sweet spot.
Tempting. But not sure if want.
I know the console pack in has a 1 year warranty. They used to have a problem with the rubber on the sticks peeling off, but that seems to have been fixed.
Not a crazy deal, but the NES 3ds is in stock in the refurbished store on Nintendo.

I had to send in two just recently for peeling rubber on the sticks. I take excellent care of them yet they still peeled. One of them was a bit older, but the the other I only picked up in November. I can't believe they still haven't fixed this
The replacements they sent better not do this again. They make you pay for shipping even if they're under warranty(you get a year).

The white one I bought at the last sale seems to be holding up, but now that I have two, I rotate between the two sticks.I had to send in two just recently for peeling rubber on the sticks.

Ah okay. It sucks that happens so much. It used to be you buy first party because it'll last forever and third party if you don't care if stuff like this will happen. I guess this'll be something I'll worry about when I eventually get a PS4.

Managed to snag a PS4 controller from shop.ca with a $20 off coupon thankfully. This new price is awful.

No cheaper pricing for people who haven't bought anything before? aww. Was hoping for a super bundle with everything.
Are they US or Canada based? Is that price in USD?
Canadian
ncixus.com is their us store
Also says on the price "Our Price: $54.00 CAD"

Hmmm... price match time.
