Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag

Not sure if this has been mentioned yet, but my friend and I recently upgraded our EB Games preorders (which supplied us with the McF. poster) from the regular 60-dollar price to a $130 edition. While no details are available for this collector's edition, it's clear that at least Canada, through EB Games, is getting a rather hefty collector's edition.

Its a bit ridiculous really. Everywhere else somethings anounced,Ubishop everywhere else has something to order but NA just seems to be NA. Only thing i can think of is since the last one didnt do well maybe there is none. Stupid thing is i think AC 3 would have sold well in NA if it was something so ball tearing drop dead awesome not just a re-pack with a slight difference

Ugh my feelings exactly

It's as if ubisoft just stopped trying with the CE's in the US

No far cry 3 CE, no ACR CE, ACIII was a repack where apparently fans had to argue for the inclusion of the notebook?

I mean what's with that?

Perhaps market research indicates the US doesn't collect as much as Europe or something???

I mean seriously give us something unique like in the old days

I think the last decent US CE for AC was the Jack in the Box,those things still sell well & are a wanted item. Yes,its cheap plastic,light etc but still a nice little item thats nobody else had. If they do something different this time like everybody else hopes they will sell a but load of them. However,if they dont not only will they loose some sales/profits but possible some fans as well

The problem is most retail CE's in the US are made in such large numbers that you're bound to have left over and overstock

Even the ACB CE (at least the PS3 version) comes up for sale sealed at a reasonable price every once in a while still

I think I've seen a seller list 5 or 6 sealed PS3 ces for 40 USD a pop 2 or 3 times in the last year or so

They should just make a limited one and not have to worry about overstock

Plus give me something unique like you said

[LowlyAssassin]

Listed is so hard to achieve for such a large sales market
As its not just USA that gets the limited item bit Canada too and Mexico has developed a nice economy in the past few years so how do you calculate the correct number of a limited it so that everyone that wants one gets one and there is none left over?
How many people ate there in NA total that would buy a VG
Also SA is developing quiet nicely so they might like a CE/LE aswell

And at least this year I know I don't have to buy the IS CE straight away as it won't sell out
It means I can split ac4 to a 2 month purchase and buy guide books and figure and art books in accessories in month 2 which helps as there is a console out in the same month
