99€ would have been lovely. However Nintendo is using a specific company for their products in Nordic countries and the RRP that company has set for the device is 149€ (in Finland, no idea about SEK/other currencies but very likely around 150€). So the cheapest SNES pre-order around here was 149€, although most stores asked more than that.

Incidentally I've been ordering all my Nintendo stuff from anywhere but Nordic countries for a while.

Cz's getting screwed over too. RRP seems to be around 3500 czk (~€135) for no apparent reason. Not like Czech crowns are suddenly booming or anything. That's almost double the US price of $80. I mean, I guess it's good they aren't selling out in nanoseconds, but at that price who's surprised?

Worten (PT and possibly ES) has SNES mini pre-orders at €89,99, reasonable I guess.

So does FNAC.pt but I wouldn't really trust them at this point, especially FNAC. I got a friend who works there that told me that for the NES Classic they were only able to honor around 17% of their pre-orders, because obviously they are not special and keep the pre-orders open until the day before release (!!), all the while taking people's money. I known mine got cancelled and I ordered it day 1 when they opened their pre-orders. And then they wanted to give me my money back as store credit...

May as well add to this story that I've also heard stories of store employees scalping units on Ebay and lying to customers when they were asked if they had the system in stock. So yeah, when in doubt, ECI or Worten.

Where's the cheapest I can get Switch's pro controller? I imagine it'll be £59.99 everywhere, but wondered if there were any deals going on.

You should be able to get £5 off with the VG5OFF35 code on Amazon: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01N4ND1T2/

I am still incredibly bitter about the price of that thing and the lack of a headphone jack. Getting a XB1/PS4 adapter would save a few quid but that would be at the expense of the gyro...

Simplygames just charged me for my Destiny 2 copy, maybe they will dispatch it later today? Anyway the servers won't be up till next Wednesday, so it's a bit useless to have it early lol

Has anyone ordered from ShopTo without registering? I do not want to register since they require you to enter credit card details and I want to pay with PayPal anyway.

I wanted to order as a guest but my address was missing some of my info (name and surname). Is this normal?

Also: ShopTo - Yakuza 0 only ~23€

EDIT: Is ShopTo even allowed here anymore? Can't remember. :/

Of course they are, just can't directly link to their site.

And Yakuza 0 is on back order there anyway. I paid a few extra quid on PSN to get it now.

Ah OK, thanks. Might give that a go next month.
I'm going to need one for when I play Mario Kart co-op - no way I'm doing the "one joy-con each setup".

Does anyone know of any UK sites besides Zavvi which have the Yakuza 6 After Hours Premium edition available for preorder?

Zavvi is the only one I can find at the moment - don't want to order an LE from them as I don't trust them to ship it adequately. Ideally I was hoping it'd be up on Amazon so I could use the voucher to discount it a bit, but only the base game is available there at the moment.

I think it will be up at some point, but hasn't yet. IN the same boat, no way am I going with Zavvi for anything.

they have an ebay store that you can purchase from and i think it's 1:1 pricing from what it is on their website too

is it the edition with the beer glasses? i saw shopto tweet about having it yesterday

Weird. I checked twice, it says 'In stock'.

EDIT: Out of stock now and I just placed my order. FML -_-

Did they just raise the price? I see it for 26.25€

Also, what's the problem with back orders?

You don't get the item very quickly.

 

[Eldainorn]

Well this sure is weird. Now the price is back to ~45€ and it says that it is in stock. Keeping fingers crossed now.

There is not problem with back orders. I just don't like to pay and then I am forced to wait until they get it back into stock.

It says "In progress" under status, but if you click on "View Order" it shows as Charged

Still no dispatch notice though

mine says "in progress" when i click on it, "in dispatch" any idea what that means?

 

[Adryuu]

Amazon has price matched, can get it for £31 with code.

I don't see this (shows at 60 pounds) but I see Nier Automata at 25 pounds.

Anyone know how Amazon UK sends to Spain? Royal air mail I guess?

 

[JJShadow]

As long as it shows "In progress", it means it hasn't been dispatched yet. Once it's dispatched it should says "Shipped"

 

[canocha]

To Portugal, most of the times, they either use SEUR or MRW.
Sometimes USPS (or whatever)
"Im not getting my item" times they use ASENDIA.

Mario + Rabbids is £49.99 on the Ubisoft Store, you can get 20% off if you have 100 club points going spare.

I'm not sure if the Tesco/Amazon money vouchers are still going. Maybe you can get MKD that way?

I used the 20 off 150 Amazon code. What happens if I don't want one of the items I preordered? Do I lose the money off, even if I replace it with something(s) to bring it back over 150?

If you want to swap anything at any time, talk to CS, that's the only advice I can give.

You probably lose the money off, or in some cases can't even cancel your order without talking to CS, once part of the order has been delivered.

 

[Jimnymebob]

Right, thanks. I'll speak to CS then. They're usually helpful enough.

Nonary Games pack for £25 on PSN this weekend. Part of me really wants it, but given a second wave of disc copies are going to be released soon I dunno if I should pull the trigger.

Especially with Danganronpa V3 in like, 28 days.

I really wish they'd release 999 separately on the store, since I already have Virtue's Last Reward on the 3DS. Plus, Zero Time Dilemma is releasing both physically and digitally this month on Europe for the PS4, adding that to Danganronpa V3, buying The Nonary Games for 25£ doesn't look justifiable this month.
