Do they charge as soon as I pre-order?

Nevermind.....: "Your card will be charged the full amount at the point of sale and your order will then be dispatched in time for release."

Hopefully it's still available monday...I still have to get bloodborne and mario party stuff......

[King Peter]

I'll stick with the PC version. Jast USA did a good job with their CE last year

I got it as well but I can't say no to a Vita version and that metal Upa.

[Twisted]

nice find, thanks for the link.

[game_player_s]

Good incentive for me to get some stuff listed on Ebay this week to load Pay Pal. Hope they still have the L.E. available by the time I collect enough payments to make the purchase. :/

[evilvort3x]

ive got the base game ordered for 15.... are the extras worth 35?

[game_player_s]

Comes with a rather large artbook. To me personally, that's a huge plus for the L.E..

[Letrico]

Item is shipped :)

[Gemini-Phoenix]

I can't remember whether I paid for this at the time of ordering, or whether it was a suspended payment until dispatch. Would be nice if it's the former

[StayFree( ' 3')]

Item is shipped :)

That free worldwide shipping made this an awesome deal.

I see a lot of Vita love here. Am I the only one that ordered the PS3 version?

[Gemini-Phoenix]

I ordered the PS3 version. In a perfect world I would have liked to have ordered both, but It's a game I would much rather own on a proper console rather than a handheld

I am curious as to whether the same size packaging is used for both versions, or whether the Vita version is smaller. I'm also curious as to whether the box artworks will feature their respective livery, or whether it will be a universal design...

More then likely that is how it is for both copies having the same size package. That is how it was with the Korean copies anyway.

Gemini got ps3 too. I usually get visual novels on Vita if I can. Easier for me to play on bed before snoozing.

Here's my Kongroo Edition for PS3:

It's quite a hefty package, to say the least. A much more quality feel than, say, the recent Final Fantasy X / X2 HD Remaster or Kingdom Hearts 2.5 HD ReMIX LE's, which in comparison feel cheap and flimsy. This one has a nice weight to it, and feels very solid! Kudos to Pqube!

It also appears that the bonus gifts which make this a Rice Digital exclusive are packed separately, meaning if you wanted both the PS3 and PS Vita versions of the Limited Edition, you only really need to buy one Kongroo edition. I don't feel so bad about skipping the PS Vita version now, as I can easily pick that up separately at a later date without having to worry about the bonus items

[Lemur]

Did they sell the Stein's Gate LE on it's own?

[Gemini-Phoenix]

Did they sell the Stein's Gate LE on it's own?

Yes, GAME were selling the LE on its own. Not sure about other retailers

[Gemini-Phoenix]

Both the PS3 and Vita versions are temporarily back to order! Limited quantities available (likely put aside for replacements). GET IN THERE QUICK!

Does the outer cardboard box have any unique markings relating to the game or is it just a standard box that houses the CE?

Nope it's just a box with no wording.

[StayFree( ' 3')]

Nope it's just a box with no wording.

well, at least they gave us a nice box to put it in instead of it being a loose item.

Is this the only physical NA version of the game?

[Twisted]

NO, amazon US is the exclusive distributor of the standard game boxed version of this title for US market for both Vita and PS3.
