In Topic: Amazon Warehouse Deals Thread XVIII

PS5 GoW Bundles - $407.20 for acceptable condition. Ordered 1, 2 left at time of posting. Hoping code is included so I can sell/trade it to lower the cost. I passed on the $400 PS5 bundles, but this was too tempting.

Got mine in today. Came in taped up original box, but missing inner box holding accessories. Accessories were wrapped up nicely in like a Ziploc bag. Small scratch on the front but otherwise looks good. Instead of a GoW download code, got a sealed physical copy with case in Spanish. So far, so good.

Oh, man. I was so excited to hear the FF Pixel Remasters were getting a physical release, then i was disappointed it was a SE Store exclusive. Then saw the pricing and my eyes just about popped out of my head. Plus I cannot believe they're like, well, we ain't translating and printing another book, but s'right, just keep the same price. I'm not dishing out $300 on this set, let alone just before Christmas. Even the standard at $100 is rather daunting thanks to the outrageous shipping charges. Rooting for some region to get their own physical releases, even if they're in 1-3 and 4-6 sets.

Joining the AI Somnium Files Nirvana GameStop cancellation club. Also had ordered a copy on Amazon on originally when it was first announced which was cancelled.

Same, and that was my replacement order after my first one on Amazon also got cancelled. Did they drastically cut back on the print run for this or something? Seems like nowhere is actually able to fulfill orders for the thing.

Could be, especially with rising costs they could be deciding it's not worth making all the preordered copies. Could also just be difficulty in getting them manufactured and shipped in time and stores are canceling because it's easier than having to deal with open orders.

 

I'm hoping this will be like Shin Megami Tensei V's LE where it was hard to preorder and ones who did got canceled, but then months later it was sitting in stock and even went on sale. Or it could be Ni no Kuni Wizard's edition all over again.

 

I also just heard about Amazon having preorders for Nirvana on the 16th. So again, hoping copies will drift in, although this whole thing is so irritating. Hopefully not just scalpers and bots end up with shipments.
