Thank me later
QUOTEAs this is the hottest release of the year we are still awaiting information from Nintendo regarding stock allocations.

Until we receive this information we cannot guarantee any delivery dates for your preorder. As soon as we receive information you will be notified by email.
I never pre-order anything.. anyway thanks.

3DS is too expensive I won't buy one now.
 
So get this, if I pay for mine in full do I have a good chance picking it up during the morning/noon it releases? Because that chance looks like it'd be significantly slashed if there is a midnight launch going on (but if I must I definitely will attend it).

I have a question.

Does every Gamestop have a midnight launch? Or only specific Gamestops?

I should have asked that question when I went to pre-order mine.

Usually, if your city doesn't have more than 1 GameStop (where I live, there was a GameStop built across the street from EB Games, now they're 2 GameStops. Kinda pointless), you'll have a midnight launch. Just call your store and ask.
 
I did pre-order it, but I don't know...

The launch looks really weak. I think I will see if it fetches a high price like the Wii/PS3 launch systems did. I don't think I would hesitate selling it for a profit.

That site says the 27th, broski.

opps, ur right I read it wrong sorry >_<

Lets say I pre-order it today, Will they start shipping on the 27th? Or will all pre-order order's come on the 26th?
 
If you pre-order from Amazon is it guaranteed it will be delivered on the release date? I remember when I pre-ordered Starcraft II from Best Buy I received it a day before the release date so I may just pre-order from there again. Obviously there's no in-store pick-up option for Amazon, but I pay less taxes when buying from them, so I still don't know where to buy from.
 
I Preordered the day before yesterday.
At first I wanted to preorder at Media Markt, but they told me they won't accept preorders until 4 week before release or maybe even later.
So at Amazon they already set a limit of one 3DS per account, because of the high demand, but Media Mark will still wait over a month before even accepting preorders? I have a strong felling that someone was slightly misinformed.
In the end I had to go to GameStop. Don't like the shop, but better than nothing.
 
Umm no. They're shipped on the 27th. If you gotta have the 3DS on launch day, buy in store. If you can wait a few days, online is fine.

GameStop said:
The date listed is usually the date we pick up the product from the vendor and ship it to you.
AmazonOnce released by the Publisher, Amazon.com will pick up the product and transport to any number of Amazon.com Fulfillment Centers (FC) located in various regions of the United States. Product from the Publisher to Amazon.com FCs may arrive on the same day or up to several days from the product release date. Once Amazon.com FCs receive the product, it is then shipped to consumers based on their shipping option selected at the time of purchase.

It's possible some stores ship the product out early with postmaster instructions to deliver on the 27th. Not sure how though if GameStop ships theirs out on release date.

A lot of online game retailers say they send pre-orders to be delivered the day before, or the day of release.

Just be sure to read their terms and whatnot, as some are lazy/don't want to take the chance of you getting it early.
 
Really depends on the retailer. I actually haven't pre-ordered anything since GCN, but I remember that coming in the mail 2 days early (launched on a sunday, I had it friday). That was from ebgames.com before they merged with gamestop.

For the 3DS I pre-ordered from Amazon, since I don't really trust gamestop not to oversell.
