    I really bloody hope so. I'm probably going to cancel the German order since something bugs me about having packaging I can't read (even Spanish would be fine here), but I know Fates sold out of its LE preorders within a half hour of going up on Nintendo's store.

    Don't, I'm pretty sure the package is mostly in English with information in all 5 PAL languages like Fates LE was. You can tell this also because there are both PEGI and USK ratings and the "Limited Edition" label is both in English and French (again, like Fates). I think it's wise to cancel this preorder only after you manage to get one from your country ;)

    I'm wondering if people are mostly waiting for the 'English' one if they were unsure like me. But I'll remain hopeful. If not, yay, I have a copy :D I've never ordered from .de before. I'm a bit nervous about shipping, etc, but it would have said if there were issues, right?

    Yes, it would. When I ordered my copy it specified that the item could be delivered to Italy and I think it's the same for all Europe mainland. I don't think the preorder can even be completed if the item cannot be delivered at your specified address.

    I'm the same. I've ordered and am grateful for it in case I can't get my preorder, but I'm dubious that it won't be in German. I bought a game recently from Italy, since it was the only place I could find it in pal - Shin Megami Tensei: Apocalypse. The game is fully English, but the front cover is all in Italian...

    In the case of the Limited Edition there is one package and cover for all Europe though, so it is the exact same product. But yeah, it's always better to get a preorder from your own country for various reasons (shipping costs, delivery, etc).

    Anyway, I'm pleasantly surprised to see that preorders are still up on Amazon.de even after several hours. Maybe it won't be that hard to get a copy from our own countries.

    Ordered. I was in Spanish class when they went live, so I don't know if they came and went on Amazon UK, but nothing on it on GAME's site, so fingers crossed. I know the game should be the same, but still, I'd rather order it via U.K. if possible to avoid delivery costs etc. Slightly bummed to see an £80 price tag, though. Lifeguarding wages will cover it, but looks like I've got to get back to commissions come April to keep my card topped off.

    I can assure you nothing was on Amazon UK or GAME. As far as I know, Germany is the only country with open preorders for now, so you still have a chance! I'm also waiting for Amazon IT, but in the meantime we managed to get our preorder at least.

    Somebody please @ me the moment this hits a U.K. storefront. College makes it hard to check every half-hour, but I almost missed out on Fates' LE, and I don't want to be relying on luck here.

    If I can make it in time, sure! I'm not from the U.K., but I think it will appear on GAME rather than Amazon.

    Wait, how did this person even get the screenshots? I doubt anyone has gotten the game this early and they don;t seem to be any kind of official person at a business (Unless I am wrong of coarse).

    Exactly what I thought. The screenshots are obviously authentic, but the source doesn't seem to be official.

    I know the original post mentions this "with reversible cover that seems to resemble the original Gaiden one." Behind the image of the 3DS case, you can barely make out the reverse side of the game's artwork, which does indeed resemble the Gaiden boxart. It's just hard to tell if it's EXACTLY the Gaiden artwork or if it's Hidari's recreation of it.

    Our questions were answered! It is indeed the original Gaiden cover.

    Yeah, I was signed up for Amazon notifications and never got one either.

    Amazon can't be trusted for these kind of things, I'm afraid... last year I never received my notification after Fates SE went up.

    Which means I have to constantly refresh pages only to get a very small chance to grab one and this is ridiculous (I'm in Europe and there are no preorders yet).

  9. Preorders for Europe (in case it says out of stock, it might reappear if someone cancels their preorder, so keep checking once in a while):

    I thought it could be wise to have a separate thread from the NA one. I might as well do a quick recap about what we're getting in Europe.

    European bundle includes:

    • A copy of the game (with reversible cover that features the original Gaiden one);
    • Valentia Artbook;
    • Sounds of Echoes CD (contains 30 tracks from Echoes and Gaiden, assuming it's the same as the Japanese version);
    • Exclusive pixel pin badges (featuring Alm, Celica and Marth);
    • Alm and Celica amiibo.

    It's basically the same as the NA version. The only difference is that this one also includes the Alm and Celica amiibo (the NA boundle doesn't). Price is still unknown, but it probably be higher than the NA one because of the inclusion of the two amiibo.

    Now, we can use this thread to share news about preorders to help each other get one and let's hope it won't be a pain like it had been for Fates Limited Edition. Last year it took a while for them to put preorders up (unlike in NA) so it's not actually surprising they're not there yet. Hopefully they'll have better stock this time around (even if Gamestop copies already being out of stock in NA isn't exactly encouraging...).

    I love the fact that there are no pair ups! Dont get me wrong pair up was a cool mechanic but IMO most of the times it felt like u have to pair up, thus turning lots of characters to Pair up bots...

    That was true for Awakening. In Fates it was a lot more balanced IMO, also because enemies could benefit from the pair up system too. I don't know how supports will be like in Echoes, but i think it will be something similar to the GBA titles.

    I regret getting the Fates SE but I know I wont regret this.

    I also got the Fates SE and... well, I don't exactly "regret" getting it because of the game cartridge having all 3 paths, but the rest of its content wasn't that special (both in Europe and NA). Echoes SE appears to be richer in its content, however I'm afraid trying to get my preorder will seriously challenge my mental sanity.
