When will my credit card be charged?

For purchases of physical products, you won't be billed until your product is shipped. This includes any preordered or backordered products. If your items are shipped separately you will be billed each time a product is shipped.

Who's willing to forward one to me? :shrug:

I can help you if you want

but the thing is they take money right away and with all the fiasco on the tekken hybrid bundle...you have to be sure because cancel is one hell of a trip to go down.

I don't know if it really exclusive to Namco store for now yes but may not be in the future.

But if you really want to and willing to paid upfront let me know

If I may say, I've already played Ni No Kuni and it's the best JRPG I've ever played in ages, I think since Dark Cloud 2. For those who can't read or write Japanese, you've already seen how beautiful the visuals are. Well, everything about it is beautiful, and the story was brilliant. <3

Thank you, Level-5. Bamco, Studio Ghibli and pretty much everyone else for this beautiful game, and thank you for bringing what looks to be an amazing CE. My Sackboy and Tipo will sure welcome Drippy.

Speaking of Dark Cloud, isn't Dark Cloud 3 way overdue, Level-5? :poll: :tomato:

Here's a bigger image of the book. I don't know if it's the same one as the DS book, but it's awesome.

I preordered this on Wednesday and I can't wait to get it, but why is it SO difficult to alter your order?!

This item doesn't ship for another half a year at the earliest and I can't change my shipping to 1 day shipping...

I ordered it with the standard shipping.

Also, and this is the part that makes me really nervous, it says that we can't change our shipping address.

Well, I'll more than likely be moving before the end of the year is up so what will happen to my preorder??? And before I know my new address this might be sell out...

They've already taken my money, though I know I'll get it right back since the funds are taken when it ships, but I can't order another one ATM.

I sent an email to Namco. Interested in what they have to say.

Just so you guys know, it's also available on zavvi for £67.85 and on thehut for £66.85.
On thehut they have a special offer at the moment so that when you order you get £2.5 off the price automatically.
And when you pre-order at zavvi, enter the voucher code ----> VCUK60 at the checkout for £6 off the price :D
The code expires on July 15

Btw, amazon.uk still didn't list even a regular version of the game, which makes me wonder if they will get the Limited Edition too after all.
They may have even better price, if I go by my experience, they often tend to underprice things at first.
But for now I ordered from zavvi too.

So amazon UK finally has this edition for pre order, the thing is...it's more expensive than the other stores at 80£!

I've done that "tell us about a lower price" thing they have on the product details box, but don't know if that's very effective...maybe if more people nag them!!

I know i could just order from another website, but amazon never failed with CE!!

BTW, here's the link:

I don't know why they do this, if you have something to add to your Collector's edition... do it!!! Don't wait for us to fill a stupid pre order bar... and this is only for the US... First konami and the zavvi fiasco, second crapcom with the overpriced RES6 CE, and now Scamco....

Inb4 alternative outfit DLCs.

Participation in the Ninostarter is limited to US residents only, and is valid only for pre-orders placed during the stated period. All pre-orders must be received by NAMCO BANDAI no later than August 31, 2012 to qualify for the Ninostarter campaign.

No thanks and fuck you. :D

i want to ask about that .. will namcoclub draw the money after i place my order or before shipping ?

I think they take the money (It only freezes the funds for a short period of time) to verify your credit card. After you place your order you can't cancel it.

Letrico
07-21-2012, 12:35 PM
i know kitty T_T which is kinda a bad thing. EB will sell it at RRP which I'm sure will be around 138-158 at this rate since their normal edition preorder is already 99.

But actually I think the main reason of the delay is because Namco Bandai US is pushing more items into the preorder making namco bandai australia unable to provide details for australia retailers?

Just speculation =/

Muhahaha, I pre-ordered at that price. I just happened to stumble upon in work and was going to post it up but you beat me to it lol =p

I think for the people that missed it may as well pre-order it as if it goes down again you will automatically get that price under Amazon's pre-order promise, you can always cancel towards the end as you won't get charged if it stays on £69.99.

^ me thinks highly unlikely as it's only limited to one place in the NA and it mentions specifically NA (United States) repeatedly on the ninostar website lol

1st goal is reached but I don't see the 2nd goal being reached in 10 days at 29% =p

That golden Ni no Kuni Wizard’s Coin sounds cool though but kinda gay that they can't just offer all the content upfront instead of going the roundabout way of doing things.
Since I think in NA the main problem is the content along with price that's putting people off (from looking at some amazon.com comments); surely the more content they add in will give more incentive for people to pre-order though.

We have some additional details about the GOAL #1 item you’ve all helped to make happen. The Art Prints are a special collection of five 6” x 9” Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch premium prints depicting key moments of Oliver’s journey throughout his adventure. Each card features illustrations created by Studio Ghibli’s Yoshiyuki Momose, who supervised the game’s event scenes.

In Addition to that, with all your support, we are also including a bonus Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch Special Music Selection CD in every copy of the Wizard’s Edition in North America. This music CD contains a couple of complete orchestral music tracks from the game, hand-picked to show the range and emotion of the beautiful music composed by famed composer Joe Hisaishi.

But hey at least my pre-order is cheap but rather have the steelbook and other bonuses; oh and here's a thought, how much Gayco include the rest of the world too (not saying every supplier but big ones like Shopto and Amazon) instead of just Canada and North America, we can easily break their gay goals =/

Also from the extension they are giving for goal two, it's like they want to sell more (giving it a chance) and give out those bonuses *facepalm*

US preorders over at club namco closed months ago..but they informed everyone of the deadline all along...but the gamestop steelbook looks fantastic...too bad you have to pay full price for the game to get one steelbook.

Never noticed the deadline unfortunately. Guess I was just wishing they'd be like AC3 and be available until the release date. Guess I may have to resort to eBay on this one.

Is this still available to purchase in the UK? Zavvi seems to have them for preorder but after the Risen 2 fiasco, I'm never ordering from them again. (They don't honor preorders, and constantly spam you with emails telling you they are sorry about your order has been delayed. Then after months and months, tell you that it has been cancelled, without even given you notice to order elsewhere)

What do you think of the game?

I'm a JRPG gamer, so I had very high hopes for this game, and it delivered (played the Japanese version already). It's amazing, especially since it hits home (Nostalgia acid trip: It plays like an SNES JRPG or any 16-bit JRPG classic for that matter).

I just hope it sells really well. The game bombed in Japan, and this is a game that deserves every penny. Also, if it sells well and adored by the press then maybe, just maybe it'll spark JRPGs' return to prominence.

Maybe I am just being paranoid but I reckon it was a bit too late. I won't blame them for not honoring my preorder. When was the deadline btw? :beg: Hope Shopto delivers! :beg:

Apparently the version on the Namco-Bandai site contains extra content for people who pre-ordered it before the end of August if I remember rightly. I'm not sure what the extra content is though. I believe in the US, that is the only place to get it from.

I'm not saying that at all, but when pre-orders closed and there was no indication of them being open again for that edition, you would expect a price hike. I'm not trying to justify what that seller did, because I think it's disgusting that he ordered so many and put so much on top of the RRP. It looks like he was originally selling at $40 over RRP, which I don't think is too bad if you missed the original pre-order deadline, but as demand gets higher, the prices that people will be prepared to pay increases too. In all fairness though, nobody knew what the extra content was at Club Namco until recently anyway. As far as everbody was concerned, it was the same as what was available everywhere else.

In my opinion though, it's the idiots that pay these stupid prices that give the scalpers the motivation to buy up all the stock in the first place. If people were to just boycott listings like this, then the sellers wouldn't be able to afford to purchase such massive quantities in the first place.

It always happens, you don't want it till it's out of stock. Nobody gave a dime about this when the ninostarter was open but once it's out of stock, the mental masturbation and the fake sense of necessity start and ebay turns into a funny place.

I reckon once these are gone, they're gone.

I think the majority of ebay scalpers missed out on this one as they underestimated it, so the market won't be flooded like N7 was. Before GAME lost it, N7 Ed was sold out and there were very few copies on ebay. It was only when everything went to shit that the ebay scalpers saw to cash in! >.<
