It's plastered over every AU gaming site that mentions RE6CE. "Preorder now at JB Hifi & EB Games". Good if you actually able to do it.

I spoke to my friend this morning who's a manager at EB. The CE isn't showing on their system yet, but I put a preorder down for the standard edition and once the CE gets added, he'll change it over for me. That way there's less chance of missing out.

Very nice. Thanks for the idea, I might do the same !

The CE on JBHifi had disappeared after two days. I guess it's already reached their limit. EB STILL hasn't put it on their websites.

just preordered the game at gamestop germany, the CE will retail for 150€ here in germany.

I noticed that, somehow I don't think it was removed due to them fulfilling their stock quota, more like it was put up in error and then removed for some reason. I assume there must be some red tape that has to be sorted which is why EB don't have it on their site yet.

CE's these days don't sell out that fast, at least not in this country.

I'd believe that, JBhifi did put a disclaimer that their price may change, which is like saying they had jumped the gun. Maybe the whole "out of 30,000" limit didn't even factor to JBHifi's decision to put up the pre-order. Capcom or EB must have told them this is actually limited unlike most CEs (the last CE numbered I remember is Sonic Generations) and to retract it so specific numbers of copies can be issued to avoid false orders.

The exception would be Borderlands 2: Ultimate Loot Chest Edition in about 3 days, and the 360 and PC versions of the Skyrim CE in about a day and a half.

Is there a way where you can get notified instantly like in email or text message when RE6 CE becomes available for pre-order? Thank you.

Ok for those of you stuck waiting for the UK release info here is a little snipet from GAME.co.uk's twitter feed;

The Merchant: Stranger... What are you selling? GAME: Pop back to find out... ‪#Secret‬ ‪#OrMaybeNotSoSecretNow‬

I may be jumping the gun but doesn't that sound like they are getting ready to announce it soon?

Just keep checking back here, someone is bound to post it as soon as it appears.

OR

Hover over all known Online Retailers refreshing a "Resident Evil 6" search page.

I'm doing the latter so as soon as I see it I am to post back unless someone beats me to it
