Speaking as a business graduate, yes this inevitably affects everyone else in the long run. Let's say CAG X purchases games and cannot afford to buy food. CAG X takes out a loan to purchase necessities due to the fact that they purchased said games. CAG X experiences a number of rainy days and defaults on the loan and is unable to pay other bills such as utilities, credit card bills, etc. CAG X declares bankruptcy. Who do you think the credit companies who lost out on their money are going recoup their money from? Everyone else.video games may be more important to some people than something you think is a necessity. People can spend their money how they want to and they don't have to listen to you telling them what they should or shouldn't buy with it because they are not rich enough for it.
I might as I have amassed a lot of Gamestop credit over the last few months but part of me wants to just wait till Black Friday. >.<Speaking as a business graduate, yes this inevitably affects everyone else in the long run.

I'm not saying we should dictate the spending habits of everyone else, but don't be surprised when you get called out for making an unwise financial decision.
Back to the point, is anyone else purchasing both the Limited Edition copy of the game and the bundle?
You guys are aware this so calledstatue is only 5"? Its more a key chain.
Aw man, really? But I'm paying ten WHOLE dollars on it, I was expecting a 12" PVC hand-crafted statue made by Project Triforce.You guys are aware this so calledstatue is only 5"? Its more a key chain.
I've got both preordered. I'll keep the physical/statue but am on the fence on the U bundle. Probably depends on whether a Pokémon 3ds XL gets announced or not for the US. If they do, I'll be picking up one of those instead.Back to the point, is anyone else purchasing both the Limited Edition copy of the game and the bundle?
If the game is a code you download, your best bet would be to sell the new console with the old game pad, the controllers will sync up to any Wii U. If it's pre-installed, you may be stuck. I know that people who have had defective units were able to get it transferred somehow, not sure how though.Can anyone shed some light on this?
I already own a launch Wii U, but I'm also a Zelda whore. (Preordered a the limited Gannon figure version from GS along with the LE Console.)
I'd rather get rid of the original console, but according to this, you still can't do Wii U to Wii U transfers.
http://www.nintendo.com/consumer/systems/wiiu/en_na/system_transfer_faq.jsp
Is this still accurate?
And if it is, is it possible to tie more than 1 Wii U console to a Nintendo account? If I have to keep both systems I'd prefer to keep the Ganon figure edition sealed and just download the LE console digital copy to both consoles.
questions like this are so weird. no one has any idea until people start selling them. the prices will be the highest -and- lowest in the first few days while people figure out the market value (those brave souls that first put it at 0.01 in a short auction and those fools that put it at $300 bin), dip for weeks after as the market gets flooded, and either they'll be permanently low after that or rare enough and desired enough to where they end high.Anyone think the figure will sell for much on eBay? Would pre order this if I could get a lot for it.
Who cares? If you can't afford to take a gamble you shouldn't be asking.Anyone think the figure will sell for much on eBay? Would pre order this if I could get a lot for it.
I'm thinking it will be valuable at some point...
So pathetic. This wouldn't even be an issue if they had real online user accounts up and running. They've had nearly seven years now to figure this whole thing out...Can anyone shed some light on this?

preinstalled you say? Forget it i will just get the deluxe and youre right, a free game or wiimote wouldnt hurti think it's been mentioned ITT but the game is very likely preinstalled
also, the book is $20 for a brand new hardcopy
if you want a cheap wiiu you're probably better off holding out for black friday

I hope your right but the new 3DS's (like the Mario 3D Land bundle)come with the games pre-installed. I don't know how this would be different but I hope it is a download code as the article suggests.I'm lead to believe it is actually a code, as it says so in the press release
http://press.nintendo.com/articles.jsp?id=40332
"a code that can be used to download The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD from the Nintendo eShop immediately at no additional cost."
I feel like every topic on CAG lately has had people arguing or asking about if something will be rare. It's been odd.This thread got annoying real fast.
Nobody knows what they'll sell for.
If you're considering buying it purely to make a profit maybe you should invest in something more profitable than video games..
CAG has become SD, it seems.
Yeah, at some point, I'm just going to keep saying, yes it's going to be rare. So buy.I feel like every topic on CAG lately has had people arguing or asking about if something will be rare. It's been odd.
not really odd, for a while their was people posting how too flip low cost game for $$$ just think this next step. people wondering how too make $$$ or reduce cost of X item .I feel like every topic on CAG lately has had people arguing or asking about if something will be rare. It's been odd.
Yeah but Your Probably less likely to get hacked and the some of B.S DLC hasn't made it over to Nintendo just yetSo pathetic. This wouldn't even be an issue if they had real online user accounts up and running. They've had nearly seven years now to figure this whole thing out...
It's a console transition season, so it's tougher to judge what will be hard to come by in the future since the market is so crowded right now. Plus every single goddamn game released nowadays comes with a LE/bonus swag at a premium and since this is CAG you have to justify the extra cost somehow; if someone isn't assigning any personal worth to the items then they default to its possible flip value.I feel like every topic on CAG lately has had people arguing or asking about if something will be rare. It's been odd.
Yup, that pretty much sums up this site, I don't think people even play games. >_<I feel like every topic on CAG lately has had people arguing or asking about if something will be rare. It's been odd.
I've done that a few times, some people actually believed it, people are so stupid and gullible here especially when things get over speculated.Yeah, at some point, I'm just going to keep saying, yes it's going to be rare. So buy.
If it turns out to not be rare and doesn't sell, woops.
I tried that on the day the listing launched and again today. Store I went to was unable to pre order it. Still not sure why but whatever. I went to gs to preorder both the console and le for the statue. Figure worst case if I can get it at bb I'll cancel console at gs and move the down to the le paying it off. I already put 10+ tax on le in preparation. Also anyone know if the dl code will work immediately or do we have to wait for the actual game release on 10/4? Would be pretty lame to wait. If right away bet those wanting to sell the code easily could since you get game two weeks early.all you need is to take the sku #, and bring it to customer service at your local bb. you should be able to preorder it.
If paying an extra 20 dollar meant getting an extra 3" id be down is all i'm saying. Numbers don't lie 5" is small.Aw man, really? But I'm paying ten WHOLE dollars on it, I was expecting a 12" PVC hand-crafted statue made by Project Triforce.
That's what she said.If paying an extra 20 dollar meant getting an extra 3" id be down is all i'm saying. Numbers don't lie 5" is small.
haaa finally after 3 pages someone got it.That's what she said.
http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/09/03/pokemon-direct-coming-tomorrowI've got both preordered. I'll keep the physical/statue but am on the fence on the U bundle. Probably depends on whether a Pokémon 3ds XL gets announced or not for the US. If they do, I'll be picking up one of those instead.
Got mine preordered in store last week.The LE bundle with the statue finally sold out on gamestop
I was wondering the same thing, I was going to do it over the weekend but I wasn't able too, if not no big deal.anyone preorder LE in store recently?
i am going to bestbuy tomorrow, i will tried preordering it in store, and update you on it. but it could be bestbuy are only allowing preorders for online.anyone able to preorder the zelda wii u console at bestbuy? I went there today and they told me the system wouldn't let them and I should just do it online
don't know if you can't do it in store or if the people just didn't know what they were doing
you waited too long, ebay is probably your only option now.Does anyone know if you can still preorder the WIndwaker w/ Ganon statue in store still or did i wait out too long?
Preorder cutoff is usually different online vs. in-store.The LE bundle with the statue finally sold out on gamestop
