View Full Version : Amazon preorder over already?

So, I just tried to preorder, and it looks like Amazon isn't taking preorders anymore. All it says is 'Sign up to be notified when this item becomes available.' Will they be taking preorders again, or should I just go to Gamestop?

Wow, I can't believe they actually ran out already.

I'm glad I ordered mine yesterday >_>

I preordered at Gamestop today, and put down the entire amount. It's about two dollars more than on Amazon, but better than nothing...

Dayum.

Thankfully I pre-ordered mine from Gamestop at the beginning of the month.

Kenji

Yeah, good thing I didn't delay, either...

Though, I'll admit, I still feel kinda nervous. I think I'll confirm my preorder tomorrow... :|

Ok, time to put down bets on how many out there purchased these games only to sell them later at a higher price.

I'm willing to bet 30% of pre-orders on amazon were purchased with the intent to sell at a later date, for a higher price. I pre-ordered mine first day.

I wouldn't be surprised if Amazon doesn't open up for pre-orders anymore, since Atlus said it was getting a very limited run anyways. If there is one thing I learned about Japanese companies (in the case of Atlus USA, their parent company is Japanese), when they say limited...THEY MEAN LIMITED. PERIOD.

Here in the US, when they say limited....well there's always a 50/50 chance of it popping up again, since nothing here is truly limited in that sense.

Damn >_< that kind of things happen when you don't have the money in the right time. I wasn't able to pre-order my copy and now I will not have plushie! This sucks >_> this really sucks... :(

I already missed my chance to have a Teddie and now I'll not have Raiho T___T

If you're pre-ordering from a website, you never need to have money when you place the order. You just need to have it when release date is near. No reason why you shouldn't be able to do a pre-order right away.

That only works with credit cards, i pay with pre-paid cards and can't order it till friday, so i expect to lose this one, which sucks.

EDIT:nevermind, i'm an idiot lol.

Doesn't gamestop still have it in?

Divals
02-15-2009, 01:40 PM
Yeah, as far as I know you should still be able to preorder it from Gamestop. You'll be paying a few extra dollars because of taxes, but I think it's worth it for the plushie..

Luna
02-15-2009, 02:30 PM
Mm yah, I just went up there and pre-ordered it. I sold a few games to =D

So, they don't take my xbox games anymore T_T

The issue is that the website I use to buy my games from, they charge you first even if it's a pre-order. The website has the same platform as Amazon, so if the pre-order is over at Amazon is over at that website.

Hopefully they'll decide to make a few more copies before the game releases. I'd already pre-ordered mine the very first day it was on Amazon, so I'm happy right now to say the least. Also, I can't stand those people who pre-order a bunch of games like this, and then sell them on eBay for like $100; it's a crappy thing to do.

*cues in the people here who do that*

They'll most likely respond to it saying it's "ok to do that" or they'll ignore it completely because of above comment.

Luna
02-15-2009, 09:05 PM
I don't mind if people sell them lol.

Sometimes i'm thankful, if i missed a release and they are selling it a little over priced.

Though yes, when I am going to pre-order it, it bothers me haha

Amazon pre-orders are available once again.

Pibbman
02-16-2009, 07:06 PM
Should you get the Raiho now remains to be seen, since they had pre-orders off for a while. It might suggest they were waiting to confirm if they could order more before putting pre-order back up.

Lorinosan
02-16-2009, 07:14 PM
That's exactly what I was thinking since they're going to be individually numbered.

Emilio Morales
02-16-2009, 07:35 PM
Thanks for letting me know! I'm making my pre-order just now. :D

Luna

Gah you beat me to it!
I canceled my gamestop pre-order and went with amazon =3

Divals
02-16-2009, 09:28 PM
I think I'm just going to stick with the Gamestop one. It's a little more expensive, but I don't like breaking a commitment v.v

I better get a Raihou...

I haven't been able to preorder--I probably won't until later this month =(

Do I still have a chance if I preorder from GameCrazy? I'm hoping you guys haven't set a concrete amount of units in this limited release, and that them running out on Amazon is not an indication that the rest of us are screwed...='( I'm also hoping you work around the amount of preorder numbers you get until the day before you print/ship the game/Raihou.

EDIT: Man...I am so tempted to preorder from Amazon...but, I...I don't have a credit card and have to use my dad's...

EDIT 2: Goddammit...I caved. Well, I won't have a chance to find out if my dad will allow me to use the card just yet, but...it won't get charged, so this like an insurance of sorts :D

Here's hoping I get a Raihou--number 29, please!

Glad to see you got to pre-order it. I pre-ordered the day I got the email, would've pre-ordered from Gamestop, but sometimes they aren't the greatest store in the world.

Luna
02-17-2009, 07:02 AM
I've had semi-bad experience with getting pre-order goodies from Gamestop.

@Dragon
So, wha? Where did you get it from?

Divals
02-17-2009, 12:06 PM
Isn't the Raiho packed in with the game by Atlus? There shouldn't be any trouble with getting it from any store, unless they're ripping open the package and tossing the Raihos.

tokoshi_x
02-17-2009, 02:09 PM
Yeah I believe that each copy should be packaged with the game. Though I am starting to feel a bit confused about it, since multiple sites are listing the Raiho plush as a pre-order bonus.

Lorinosan
02-17-2009, 04:31 PM
Well, they're still listing the soundtracks as pre-order bonuses for Ys and The Dark Spire as well even though both games have been upgraded to boxed versions.

I've had semi-bad experience with getting pre-order goodies from Gamestop.

Believe you me, I avoid Gamestop like the plague when it comes to pre-order bonuses especially for limited releases such as this. At least, in my experience, they have done nothing but give them away to random people who come to purchase a game or even just show up in the store at all. Nine times out of ten, I find out they either give my bonus away or they lie about not getting any in and keeping the bonuses for themselves. Hence why it's best to order from the website instead.

If you're friends with anyone at Gamestop though, you get every bonus reservation or not then someone loses out. I can't complain since I get tons of freebies. If you live in my area sorry.

So, wha? Where did you get it from?I've used my dad's card before so it's conveniently selectable when I buy from Amazon.

I always ask him, of course; but in this case, I didn't and have yet to tell him. No biggie, though.

02-26-2009, 01:38 PM

Since Amazon is taking preorders again...will it still be coming with the plushy?

I WANT to preorder from Amazon, but they haven't listed any bonuses outside of the Raiho plushie, which I can get from from my GameStop preorder.

For the most part, I don't plan to preorder from Amazon unless they openly announce "WE ARE GIVING AWAY THE RAIHO PLUSHIE, FIVE SOUNDTRACKS TO THE GAME, A T-SHIRT THAT'S TOO SMALL/LARGE TO FIT YOU, AND AN ULTRA RARE, SUPER LIMITED EDITION CARABINER!"

That being said, I heard from a lot of people that the S. Link bonus for P4 was low in quality, so if I miss a T-shirt and an extra soundtrack this time around, I don't think I'll be disappointed.

Me thinks, sir, you are missing the point. The Raiho IS THE BONUS. As for the Social LInk expansion, it was a stand alone, no bonus to it. Also, the music CD and the Teddy plushie were the real draws on that, I think they could have charged more, as many vampires on Ebay are doing.

All said and done, the savvy shopper should take a tip from the other folks and think about investing in 2 boxes.

Um... let's not go giving Atlus any ideas here. I refuse to pay 120+ dollars for something like that. I have other obligations that come first. Personally I don't see Devil Summoner 2 getting the same draw as the other games, it's popularity level isn't like SMT or Persona.

I pre-ordered mine from Amazon.com and had no issues about a week or so ago. I hope i get the plushy too.

As for Gamestop, every time they have a pre-order, i have always had to ask for the bonus items. I no longer pre-order from them.

In this case you shouldn't have too because it's literally put into the same packaging, unless Gamestop has enough balls to remove them from the packaging and stuff.

They shouldn't. If you go to a GameStop/EB now, you should see some promotional DS2 boxes on one of the endcaps; stores have apparently been instructed to use these as the shelf display once it's out rather than gut a retail copy. I can't guarantee every store will follow those instructions (you know how it is) but that's supposed to be the plan.

I think lower price and no sales tax are typically the incentives to pre-order from Amazon instead of GameStop. Oh, and you get to avoid all sorts of douchebaggery and treachery. Nothing's changed here.

I pre-ordered my copies of the game from gamestop, if they screw this up, then I will never pre-order from them again.

I've had fairly good luck with pre-ordering and shopping at gamestop.
But this would tear it to pieces, to my only shopping there due to lack of many other places.

(Strangely, I had more trouble at a game crazy, when they wouldn't hold a copy of Crisis core for me after it was traded in a few days after release)

But Amazon.com seems like a very good, if not better alternative to pre-ordering games, which I'll probably do if gamestop screws this up.

Same here. Last thing I pre-ordered from Gamestop (before pre-ordering this of course) was Persona 4 and they actually held onto my copy of the game when I picked it up a few days late.

Its not a preorder bonus. If you purchase a copy within the launch run, you will get the package.

Seems Amazon started shipping what is wierd is that the two I ordered are shipping separately?!

If you ordered them at the same time then I'd guess its probably because it was best to package them separately. Otherwise I'm assuming the orders are being fulfilled chronologically.

When did you order? Some people have confirmed their package has shipped (or soon will). Others are saying their ship date is next week. I'm assuming those with shipping confirmation simply got their orders in before you did.

As for your worry, though, I'd trust Amazon not to accept (and up to this point, keep) an order for a standard package like this if they're weren't expecting enough stock from the distributor to be able to fulfill it.

Not to scare you but the product page does mention Atlus has "discontinued" this set. I'm sure that means Atlus has indeed had all the packages manufactured that they ever will. But that should also mean Amazon knows (at at least has a very good idea of) how many they will get.

I pre-ordered about a month or two ago... bit late to the party.

Well that's an interesting notion. I guess I just assumed it would ship on the 12th- it does say:

Items not yet shipped: Delivery estimate: May 19, 2009

I thought the 19th takes into account my shipping time but if so that would be a full week. Hmmmmmm.....

Indeed if your delivery estimate is the 19th, then assuming you don't have next-day shipping, yours should go out sometime this week (maybe even today or tomorrow if you're using Super Saver). There are some people who are saying theirs won't even ship out until next week (which I'm assuming means they ordered within these last few weeks).

Maybe they just give us later dates originally so that we're more happy when they're sped up. Now I'll get it in my first week of being on summer break. Speaking of, I should get back to studying for finals: college can be tough.

Indeed if your delivery estimate is the 19th, then assuming you don't have next-day shipping, yours should go out sometime this week (maybe even today or tomorrow if you're using Super Saver). There are some people who are saying theirs won't even ship out until next week (which I'm assuming means they ordered within these last few weeks).

I ordered mine in January and it says it'll be shipping out next week...sometimes I wonder what kind of system Amazon has in determining who's will ship first.:confused:

Yeah, I know what you mean. Mine is also shipping next week. I ordered January 30th, right around the time the pre-order bonus was announced. The ship date is May 18th, and delivery is expected the 26th till the 1st of June.

Where does it give you the ship date? All I see is the delivery estimate.

It should be right above your shipping address.

*sigh* Typically, due to where I live, it is Wednesday when games come in but I have gotten lucky sometimes; P4 and FES actually arrived on a Tuesday. I just wish it had come out last week since I had the weekend off...

I hope you're happy, Atlus. Your releasing such and awesome game is going to have me playing it late into the night, neglecting sleep and homework, after I get home from my job.

Amazon doesn't plan on shipping mine out until the 18th for some reason. ...though, they pretty much always do this with my Atlus preorders. I called about it once and they said it was because I got Super Saver shipping, I guess this is their way of punishing me for costing them money :p

Just got mine earlier to find that my disc was also broken :very_sad: The inner ring was completely busted out and since no remains were in the case it must have happened during packaging.

Already sent for a replacement from amazon, just hope I receive another pre-order package instead of the stand alone game since that is what I have...

Mine shipped from Amazon, but I did super saver shipping, so I'll have to wait about a week. With all their money, I can't believe Amazon hasn't invented teleportation yet.

Wow. Mine actually shipped out from Amazon today. I'm rather impressed, they usually wait a week after something comes out to ship my preorder... -.-
