Nice. What will it cost? Will it be released in Europe too?

 

[Lily]

It's confirmed for North America (USA & Canada) so far. There is no extra cost - simply $39.99USD or $49.99CDN depending on where you are.

 

[Sc4rFac3d]

I bet it won't come to europe.

 

[AppleJuice]

that looks amazing. i hope we get something similar in the uk

 

[Elrinth]

Oooh please let this come to europe aswell.. Or else I will have to pre-order quickly now the canadian version.

 

[Gilrad]

This is rediculous. I had to order it online because my local gamestop--which is right across the street--doesn't even know what this package is.

Stupid waste of 14 dollars (shipping and tax).

That usually happens with these things. They have the pre-order bonuses up on their sites but the stores don't seem to know about it until a few weeks later. Looks awesome though, will definately be pre-ordering this if the closest GameStop is gonna have it.

Bah. Another pre-order package that I really really want, but can't get. Online purchases isn't something I can do without being questioned and promptly annoyed about.

The store I go to only gets pre-order goodies from imports, strangely enough.

Why would someone want a preorder especially when it's in japanesse? it's comming out in about a month here anyway. Just to be on the safe side i'll rent mine as usual who knows it might not be all that good, so better safe than sorry i say.

P.S I would get the extras aside from the game if it were available that way.

 

[PineappleH]

So how long has this offer been up?

WTF. The stuff he posted was for the USA version preorder.

I noticed that too and was wondering what teh heck they were blabbering about.

 

[Digeman]

(sorry if this is a little of topic but...) Is the game gonna be wifi enabled?!?!

Oh and how much would it cost if they were to send it to sweden?

 

[T-hug]

Very nice I want it! Reminds of the Europe-only limited edition of SOTN on PSX. It had an awesome artwork booklet and an orchestral cd. It still goes on ebay for over 100£ when they rarely come up (sold mine last year) so it may be a good idea to buy a few of these up for the future ;p


[-EDIT-]

You can take a look at the PSX one on my old auction here!

lol, English dude, English. USA version....

plus, Thug413 oh-my-god, 100£?! for just a book and an audio cd?

do you know if other websites than eb and gamestop will feature these bonuses ? Because it seems there's absolutely no guarantee to get these by preordering on the former websites, given the outrageous shipping rates to my home (30$), I don't want to only get a 5$ discount if I don't get the bonus (has happened to someone on a similar case).
Lik-sang did allowed to preorder but there's no words about bonus...
Otherwise, if some US fellow here can order it for other european interested members and send it to us, it could be great. We could pay by paypal for example (I can also do international bank draft).

 

[disperse2000]

Damn, bought it yesterday from gamestop for $40. Went down to $35 today.

BTW - use code FREESHIPALL and select "USA Value" shipping for free (but slow) shipping.

 

[TheCardDealer1]

You may think I'm crazy but this looks to be the best Castlevania ever...and that's no small feat.

 

[Gilrad]

Meh. The voice acting sounds a little iffy. I am hoping they will include the japanese voices as well, so at least it will sound good (but not likely, considering the limited space of a cartridge).

Aside from that and the fact that the multiplayer still sounds a little gimmicky, I am all for this game.
