Just read about that somewhere else. Does anyone know if the same will happen with the Gamestation one? This is one of the games ive really been looking forward to. I really want that ltd edition but im so broke i can't even afford the standard.


Got mine pre-ordered with Play.com...hope they don't do a downgrade too :(

Any official reason why Game are having to do this?

Not sure. There's all sorts of problems going on with Game at the moment. They're not stocking Tekken on the 3DS at all either, online or offline...they've cited 'delivery problems' I think over that, but from what I gather Game blame Namco, Namco blame Nintendo and and Nintendo blame Game, lol.

My Last Story preorder is with Shopto.net at least.... :)

Pandora's Tower and Dragon Quest IX?

The Wii went through most of it's life without a really killer JRPG but with Xenoblade, Skyward Sword*, Last Story, Pandora's Tower and DQIX all released or due it seems to all have come at once.


*Admittedly this is a tenuous one - SS is the least RPG-like Zelda yet, far more of an action adventure title than anything else.

Huh, guess I was lucky when I ordered from Amazon instead of my usual habit with going with Game for the Reward Points.

Now, who to preorder Street Fighter X Tekken limited Edition from? Hmmm.......
3DS FC= 0301-9774-9044

PM me if you add me.
