eclipse Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 (edited) Yeah, it's National Fire Emblem Day. School's out for everyone! I wish I don't plan on taking the day off, BUT I happen to be within bus distance to my Gamestop. . .so come lunchtime, I'm headed on over to pick it up! May not be able to play until I get home, but I think I can wait~! EDIT: Too bad PxZ2 comes out, like, three days before this. Might hold off on the PxZ until I'm well and truly done with Fates.

wallhadrian Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Already pre-ordered the game digitally, does anyone know if I'll get the code immediately at 12:00 AM? And if I don't take the day off I'll be playing it all through class. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grapemaster Raisin Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 I work full-time and am an undergrad student. I literally planned my whole class schedule so that it doesn't interfere with Friday and weekends. I might take off, but I get my paycheck cut into whenever I call out so I don't think it's the grandest of ideas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Respite&Nepenthe Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Who needs a college education and preparation for my career when I can play FE all day? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrostyFireMage Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Probably just another day for me since Australia doesn't even have a release date :C Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chibster Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 I'm off on Fridays so I'm definitely getting to Gamestop as early as possible! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimalkenkid Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Requested the 19th off, and I sincerely hope I get it off just so I can pick up the game plus the new 3DS as soon as Best Buy opens. I've gone full-nerd over this game in a way I've never done before. @.@ I just hope that I still have an SE preordered because my online receipt says "Pre-order release date is now Dec 31". I really hope that's just a placeholder or a goof in the system; I don't think I could wait any longer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PunkRoseBlitz Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 I preordered the Special Edition at Best Buy and am somehow glad I didn't do it for Amazon. I preordered the Rock Band 4 Band Bundle and it didn't arrive until 1 p.m., an hour and a half before I had to leave for work. As much as I would love to take the 19th off, I have to work since there's an anime convention in March and I'd rather have all work days signed in before the payroll is due. At my work, February gives me my highest paycheck. I also don't have classes until Tuesday so the reward pays off! I still check my order status to make sure the placeholder changed, because New Year's Eve is way too far. XD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inquisitor Lavellan Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 (edited) Luckily I don't have school. So I will be playing Fates and hiding from the rest of my responsibilities. Or doing the same just with Digimon Cyber Sleuth depending on how this whole skinshipping ordeal pans out.

rinshiiya Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 I only have three classes this semester thank god & I ended up having every Friday off. so I'm in luck; will be playing Fates all day if I manage to wake up early enough to snag a copy at the store I don't do that preorder thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSbardock84 Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 I go to high school so I can't really do that and unfortunately that whole weekend I'm busy with Speech and FFA :(. I'll just bring my 3DS to those events ig, I'll probably bring it too school too. Can't wait, preordered it today. Wish I could've gotten Special Edition but whatever.

Shina Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Bless the fact that I work graveyard shift at my job so I don't have to worry about taking off. I could finish work, relax for a few hours, and then take the bus to the Gamestop at my mall to pick up my copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luis_lara12345 Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 I would be at school almost all day but with some free hours to go to buy the game haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radiance Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Wish I had a warp staff to do my pickup, then return to school Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xaos Steel Wing Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 I have the day off anyway. Although, if the localization is done as terribly as some news sources and early info suggest, I might not even want to get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dai Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 My only worry now is that my manager intends to put me on the graveyard shift. Just so long as I DONT have to work Friday, I'll be fine. It'll suck having to sleep before I can play the game, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nishiki Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Update on my case, actually! I have the Friday before the 19th off, as well as the following Monday. It's a bit of a bummer considering that I'd be so close to getting that Friday off, but hey, shorter school week means shorter time to Fates. Although, my problem is that I'm wishing for a snow day on the 19th, but that might hinder my ride to Gamestop. Speaking of Gamestop, since I didn't preorder both Birthright and Conquest, is it possible to buy the keychains when you walk in, or are those off-limits to me now?

Irony Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Oh Naga, this is like Fallout 4 all over again... In all seriousness, Fates doesn't have a release data in Europe, so I guess I'll just be envious of you lucky people who get a chance to play it so early...

Eleanore Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 I'm in Europe so while I work on friday I doubt the eshop will have updated before I get out from work anyway. I have made sure to ask for time off for the weekend though. Right now I'm just really happy for buying a Canadian 3DS back in 2012. I have a new big SD card ready and everything.

Lann La Mirah Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Sadly, Fates' release date lands on my busiest day of the week. It's off to volunteer at 6 in the morning, and I won't be back to pick it up until 3. The wait's going to kill me! D: But I'll have most of the weekend to play it though. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gayserbeam Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 I've got to haul ass out of town on the 19th. I'm going to have to pass by EB Games right when it opens and grab it before my trip leaves. I've already played the game, but I preordered the English version and I don't want to miss out on those keychains... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaze Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 I lucked out this time. I don't have classes on Fridays until the week after Fates comes out. Unlike back in 2013 where I had to leave my Drawing II class early in order to get Awakening. >_> (Panicked since I was told that very morning that they were only getting a few copies in and when I called later they said they only had one copy left and I had pre-ordered it, but wasn't guaranteed my copy...)

Infinite Dreams Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 (edited) I won't be home from work until 8pm-ish and unfortunately can't get the day off. I'm hoping that my boyfriend will be off so he can be here when it gets delivered. If he isn't, then I'm gonna ask a friend or family member to come over to my place and wait for it so it doesn't get sent to the post office for pick up the next day, haha... can't have that. ; ] Edited January 31, 2016 by Infinite Dreams Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
