Just posted in the limited edition thread about the e-mail.

Got mine an hour ago, shame you have to wait until June just to provide your address. I imagine after that it will be 28 days delivery.

Fugnuts. :evil: So I might not be getting anything for having preordered all 3 games and registered them then?? :evil:

I did get the banner flash up telling me I was eligible and to check my emails over the next few weeks etc. Seems if everyone else has got theirs already, then I might've lucked out. :cry: :cry:

Keeping my fingers crossed still.

When did you register them all? I know I registered mine a week or so after the promotion started and had to purposely buy Xenoblade (I was after it anyway) to get the final game in the set registered but I got my confirmation email yesterday...

What I'm saying is that I was slow in getting it done but I still got my email so I'm assuming it wasn't a super-strict time limit in effect.

2 days after Pandora's Tower came out. I'd already registered Xenoblade back when that was first released, but hadn't done with Last Story, so as soon as I knew about the offer I got both Pandora's Tower and Last Story on there as well, then got the message flash up about checking my emails over the next few weeks.

Now, still nothing. :( Feels a little like I've been cheated.

Probably a bit late, but with 750 stars you could treat yourself to 3 packs of Kid Icarus cards or if you have 50 more stars, 200 Nintendo Points, lol. XD

While it does say 'whilst stocks last' the offer is still showing on the website so no harm in trying.

Finally got round to playing Back to the Future The Game today. I would only advise this version if it's your only option (Like me, who's not a PC gamer and doesnt own a PS3) since there's some very noticeable slowdown during the cutscenes and obvious, not in HD.

But other then that, it's decent so far.

I don't understand Telltale games on the Wii. The two Sam & Max games and BTTF both seem to be plagued by slowdown and glitches as if the engine is really struggling to run on the hardware - but Tales Of Monkey Island (which AFAIK runs on the same engine) is far smoother and almost entirely glitch-free, even though that's the one that's on WiiWare and therefore has to be compressed down to under 40MB per chapter!

Inconceivably, almost, HMV are overstocked on used copies of Super Smash Bros Brawl, so they're selling off their pre-owned copies of it for just £1.98! I swagged three today - I've already given two away, and traded in another into GAME for a tenner.

What a bargain!!
