Skies of Arcadia(GC) is $20 at Fry's. They have numerous copies at the Northern California Fry's I go to. Also, it appears that the deal is online, but there may be limited quantities.

There won't be a Player's Choice for this game I think because it wasn't THAT popular...and also, there was already a Player's Choice announcement recently made for Metroid Prime to be $20 and Mario Golf to be $30.

Edit: [quote name='Outpost.com']Outpost ships on a first come, first service basis.[/quote]

Bullshit.
 
[quote name='kaw']Outpost now has "Limit one per order" on the page for Skies of Arcadia. That's good to see. It seems easier for a retailer to ship 20 copies to one hoarder than 1 copy to 20 people. Maybe a retailer actually cares about us gamers?[/quote]

:D
 
I got 2 day shipping so I should get mine tomorrow when I do, I'll tell ya here so ya know it actually shipped and I'll say what cover it has. (Just had horrible daydream that it'll be the DC version and not GC :shock: )

No, no, no. Not the DC version. Could you even imagine? That would be just TOO funny. Nice thinkin'.
 
I placed an order last week which was then promptly marked as "backorder. Ater seeing the posts here, I sent customer service an e-ail last night asking why I hadn't received a notice about a shipment when people who had placed an order yesterday had received shipping notices. I also alluded to the suspicion of randomness to order fulfillments. They didn't bother answering that, but they did say that my order was immediately filled after they read my e-mail and the shipment has gone out. :)
 
[quote name='buddy the puppy']I just got an email also sayin' mine shipped today. $25.94. I got the 2 day shipping. Still a great deal though.[/quote]

same here :)
 
I find it interesting that I placed an order for SoA and the Arc the Lad Collection on Wed morn @ 10am (yesterday at this point), and both items are listed as shipped at the time of this post. given that, I'd guess most ppl here would definitely be getting their games sometime soon, but then I don't know how Outpost.com handles their incoming orders or backorders.
 
Alright, my single copy was shipped, but my bundle of 4 hasn't been shipped yet, it still says "Order Being Processed." Oh well, at least I got my main order, that counts (my original copy I bought new does not have the case because someone stole it from Software Etc., so gay).

glad one of your five shipped.

I hope you didn't pay full price for the one missing the case!

Nope, I got a 10% discount, although that isn't much :( ($5).

And those 4 are for friends who never got to play Skies and who don't want to use their cards due to possible credit card fraud (happened to a few).

sucks on both counts, particularly the measly 10% discount.

glad I didn't give you the real rolling eyes for your previous post. given what you wrote, I couldn't resist being "that guy" and writing something in response. I hope you get them and your friends enjoy the game!
 
i pickup up 4 copies as well( not to re sell on ebay, but for friends, and yes they will get the discount)

and mine has shipped as well.
 
I recently checked the eBay prices for sealed GC versions. they really don't seem to pull in much over $35, with a few ending for less than $30. anyone hoping to make an immediate profit off this game via eBay would likely be disappointed.
 
[quote name='King Bahamut']Hehe, thanks. It's hard enough finding such a great game at such a steal, and sealed![/quote]

no problem :D
 
Alright! Just received the game a minute ago. Ha, got mine in 2 days and didn't have to pay for the ~$.80 extra 2-day shipping (damn I'm a cheapass). As expected, it's an original copy (no Player's Choice logo). Well, thanks, I'll be busy today...
 
Really impressed with outpost. I ordered around 3am on tuesday. They shipped today at 540am. I got them at 1030 this morning with the cheapest availible shipping.
 
earlier this week it was Shenmue II and Ico, now these two. I nominate Outpost.com for v-game retailer of the year... err, maybe month at this point :D
 
I too am very impressed with Outpost. I ordered mine at 6:00 pm on Tuesday, got confirmation that my order was shipped at 10:00 am on Wednesday, and just received the games a few seconds ago, 11:20 am on Thursday.
 
I placed my order over the phone while it said "call for availablity". I was put on the backorder list and got my game today. Outpost really does kick ass.

Go buy the Outpost.com copy, and sell your used copy on eBay.

Like they ever would :(. Coincidentally, I happen to be selling a used copy of Lunar 2: Eternal Blue without the inserts on eBay, but I do happen to have a copy with the inserts that I'm going to sell soon I think...(all inserts except for the cloth map :( )...

doh! if I weren't such a picky bastard, I'd pick it up off you. as I have a sealed copy of Silver Star Story, I'm looking for either a sealed or complete and mint copy of Eternal Blue.
 
Oh shit a sealed copy of Lunar: SSSC? I am currently selling a used one that again, doesn't have the cloth map...what's with these damn eBay sellers selling me used copies and claim they have all of the inserts and don't have the cloth maps...damn them!

yeah... as of mid-November I started picking up games again. I've had that copy of Lunar SSSC for years, never got around to playing it. now that I've started buying games again, I'm trying to get the things I missed out on, like Lunar: EB. I'm a pretty big RPG fan, so I definitely want it in my collection.
 
*Has a sealed copy of Lunar : EB*

Not trading it though. Its in my RPG collection. With SSSC (Opened, but complete)

My Skies of Arcadia Legends came in today at 1PM Central. Ordered it Wed. night at 11. Outstanding deal :)
 
the sealed copies don't go for all that much on eBay, nothing like the painfully ridiculous Suikoden II complete games. I'll probably just break down and buy Lunar: EB off there before long.
 
They tried to deliver mine at 11 but nobody's home at that time. :?

Says they'll try again tomorrow. I'll be here this time.

No what's ridiculous is a sealed copy of Mega Man X3...that game already goes for $100+ on eBay...

Edit: $100 + used that is - there was an auction for a sealed copy for $400 the other day...now it's gone for some strange reason, I think someone paid him that much for it.
 
....Put your tounge back in your mouth. Thats not to good of a deal.
Disgaea-45 and it'll hit 30 and then go back up in a bit to 60...So possibly the only thing worth getting out of it.

Metroid prime-5-15 bucks used.

45-What're you gunna do? Buy food? Games? Thats useless.....
 
Well excuse me for not going for an uneven deal. I'm not out to completely rip people the fuck off you know, even though I did pay 60 for it.. :?

Somebody woke up on the wrong goddamn side of the bed today. No need to be so bitchy. :?
 
Got my two copies today- woot!! Been playing it for a little while now. Seems very fun- my only gripe is I can already hear the character's one-liners at the end of battles getting annoying!

Thanks OP for the great deal, even though I had to wait a month for it to ship.
