I got one of those emails as well. But the dates are different.

We have received new release date information related to the order you placed on January 13, 2017. The item(s) listed below will actually ship sooner than we originally expected based on the new release date:

"The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Master Edition - Switch"
Previous estimated arrival date: March 13, 2017
New estimated arrival date: March 03, 2017

I wonder if it by state?

I'm not sure how Amazon general shipping works but it would make sense to cancel some in a highly sold state?

MI here, safe to say if we see some MI orders cancel then we can rule that out.

Based on what I'm seeing online, it seems someone was told that they "lost" a shipment of the Master Editions, which makes a bit of sense since today is the day Amazon supposedly received their Switch stuff. Could this be true? Did Amazon seriously "lose" an entire shipment of these things?

of it's def a regional thing. These are prob in there wharehouses now or have a accurate number of how many they're gonna have at each one which is why the cancellations are happening now. They're not gonna ship one cross country just because someone ordered seconds or min before anther one.

Possibly a lost shipment?

That $10 amazon credit sure makes up for their fuckup at least.

Oh well at least as consolation I was just able to preorder an PAL Limited Edition from Amazon UK 10 minutes ago. They had a very short restock of 2 minutes lol. And there's also my 1 backup remaining for the ME which is Bestbuy. Fingers Crossed, sweating it out until 3/3

Seems like there was a stolen shipment. Wouldn't surprise me. I bet Ebay will be flooded with them soon for inflated prices

they are ghost cancelling orders.

I had 2 of the Special edition in the same order and now the quantity is reduced to 1.

nothing in the cancelled orders section, no email.

i look back at my order and it says I have 2 ordered for $167.98, click on the link of the order and brings me to the same order at $83.99

 
Was feeling pretty unlucky about missing out on the LE Arts & Artifacts Guide a few pages back. Doesn't even remotely stack up to this. My condolences. I would be so  fuck ed up.

What was your time for the 2? And which got canceled? Also did it get canceled just now or 30 minutes ago like most people.

Order #1 placed at 12:26am PST
Order #2 placed at 12:27am PST
Order #1 cancelled at 5:34pm PST

I don't think the time stamp mattered. I think they just saw I had two ordered and canceled.

Considering they're fixing my cancel order by the 25th I say give it a try.

You have nothing to lose other then them saying no or a free gift card

Nintendo stole the shipment to resale on ebay later at a mark up price

There I just spoiled the whole case

Between the guy who gotten a stolen Switch and Amazon losing a shipment (possibly stolen) it looks like scalping Nintendo products became a black market.

Now let us switch from stolen Amazon shipments to the master edition that you can no longer unbox  :-({|=

Called Amazon about potentially reinstating that Special Edition I had purchased in the same order (which got cancelled for a different reason) and got a whole lot of nothing.  fuck

 
That statue looks much better than the one they showed at the event that people have been making fun of. dammit if this video didn't steel my resolve the get the ME further. Thanks for posting the unboxing Keeper

The limited edition is the Master Edition technically.

All the same items just named difference for an another region.

The sword looks improved tons since it was last showed.

Everyone expected it was bent between carrying it around all day and taking pictures with it.

That really sucks about the cancelled Master Editions.  Sorry guys.  I was never able to get a preorder in to begin with, but I know I'd be hella pissed if mine was cancelled now.  :headache:

 
Nope. 

With "Limited" Nintendo merch, you can't assume any preorder is safe unfortunately. It's why so many of us preorder at multiple retailers in hopes 1 CE makes it home unharmed.

Haha, love that video. Really Sorry to hear about all this BS it's crazy how stressed these pre-orders get especially with Nintendo. I been on pins and needles for this and just more excited knowing this thing is at my door then playing it at this point.

Yeah, I had the opportunity to order at each retailer but thought, "No, I'll let other people get a shot." Never making that mistake again. :bomb:

 
Sitting over here like "I feel like this is going to suddenly drive up aftermarket prices.... *rubs hands together and does an evil laugh*"
