see previous page:
no, you definitely can sign up. it's just that, in order to do so, you're requested to fill in a captcha code, & you can't see any captcha code...
edit: correction! they've now removed the sign up option...

Am I supposed to put a candle behind my phone or something?
I think that's up to us. Post some deals, talk shipping and stock situations and see how it goes.

Right now the 'captcha' is a code given through the discord communities.
If you aren't in one and verified right now, you'll need to wait for the regular, public registration.
Same. Because I'm afraid that everyone who has a Switch is going to buy this game though, I'm going tomorrow before work. I gotta have this game this weekend!

There are no codes anymore - just regular signups that will happen later.

This is what Im gonna have to do too. Got a shipping notice for the amiibos, but nothing about the game yet - and no charge for either. Splatoon 2 release was so much smoother.

I never have success with this. They scan in the new copy and then say it doesnt match the UPC code.

My Mario went from friday to saturday over the course of the day.....lol. The really shitty part is I'm Prime and I paid for the extra super duper shipping. Still wont be here release day.
They accept returns for web orders at stores, I cant imagine they have separate UPCs for their online warehouse vs in store. Although I cant tell you for sure.

whew Literally just got a shipping notice from Walmart, and a charge for the game. Both orders have been processed, and should arrive here tomorrow. Pull through, WM!

Anyone know if shoppers drug mart's Super Mario Odyssey $99 is a typo? or is that really the price? When everywhere else has it for $79?
Someone else had posted that a Shoppers phone CSR said that its the correct price, but its gotta be a placeholder price. Flyers are made up weeks in advance, and I cant see them charging $20 over MSRP.
Im hoping to redeem 50K Optimum points for it tomorrow.

Thanks for letting me know, I was going to do the same!
Mario+Rabbids - $49.99
Amazon Deal of the Day - 4 hours remaining
It's a Ubisoft game so I'd imagine this will drop drastically if you wait long enough. But this is a pretty good deal given it's release wasn't that long ago.

It's a terrible bundle - I thought about getting it early on, but you're right in that it's a $400 console plus an $80 game and a $20 case. And the game is still cheaper via Prime at the moment anyway.
You'd think they'd throw in a decent size SD card given that it's only a digital version of Mario, too.

Thank you.
I was looking at the boxart on the amazon site and noticed how weird mario's smile looks (zoom on his mouth)... like really bad!

Went and picked up chibirobo for the 3DS from best buy for $10 today. I thought too long though on Dragon quest 8(?) And I missed out on it though. Oh well.
would jump on it instantly but with mario and FE around the corner, I will wait lol.

Monopoly Switch is arriving tomorrow instead of Monday the real release date. Now everyone can be jealous of me playing it before them 😂

Thanks for this and it's a good point you make about Ubisoft games. Personally I didn't find this game very entertaining (bought at launch and then returned it) and I'd say the meta score is probably accurate. I will happily rebuy this at $20-$30 but just found it a little slow and the rabbids humor went by me (ie I don't understand it)
Reading that people posting on resetera also had similar weird issues with Walmart.ca.
Basically they tried to charge my closed credit card, I called in to changed payment info but couldn't so they cancelled the original order and put in a new order with the discount price.
They still shipped my original order, but at regular price instead of $49, despite being cancelled. I called in but they had no idea what was going on and said I wasn't charged. The rep I spoke to was clearly a dits that was making up a lot of BS on her end to why it changed from $49 to $90. I ended up just ending the call and called my bank. They said there is no way for them to charge my closed credit card as the request would be blocked.
I think I just got me a free copy.}
*Breaking news*
I just got re-imbursed $33.90 on my original order... on my original, now closed, credit card.
I guess regardless if they find a way to charge my credit card account, at least it's at the discounted price.

Finally picked up Danganropa on vita. Hopefully I can play it before it becomes another backlog addition.
You can buy it elsewhere and return the amazon copy with the other stores receipt. Provided neither are unique copies...

it's not even what's always been called a 'bundle'. which's, up till now, anyway, always been a console combined with free/discounted games. this's simply a packaged version of the console & the game, for the going price of both. iow, pointless!

I just got everything today from Walmart and best buy first time in a while I got launch day delivery.
The wedding Amiibo are so cute

My Walmart Mario Odyssey is out for delivery, I'm so excited!
This forum mess though, lol. I'm okay coasting on GAF for a bit, I'm already in the discord so it's not too big of a deal. I'll start looking into reset era once things have calmed down a little bit and the lines aren't as flooded.

These were just delivered at my place. Can't wait to get home to see them. Don't even have the game yet but couldn't pass these up.
Registration is open now.
