AyvuirRed Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Preordered from Best Buy and mine also says expected 12/31. It has not shipped yet and I have not yet been charged for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leif Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Preordered from Best Buy and mine also says expected 12/31. It has not shipped yet and I have not yet been charged for it. I ordered from Best Buy and I called my local store. They said that I would be able to pick it up Friday morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dv_US Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 My Bestbuy order's release date changed, but still "In Progress" and still authorizing my card. They're seriously cutting it close with just 2 days, almost makes me feel that my local store's going to forget to fulfill my pre-order.

nyainou Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 My Bestbuy preorder hasn't done anything, either. I'm really nervous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladyfoster Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 As someone with a Best Buy pre-order I am nervous as well. If nothing changes by tomorrow evening I'm calling them before they close to ask about it. My mom has to drive me out to pick it up so I don't want her to get mad at me for them not even having it there or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonlordsd Posted February 18, 2016 Author Share Posted February 18, 2016 (edited) With all the hype, my biggest worry now is actually getting it on Friday, since by that point my hype's gonna be through the roof. Side note: it seems that for best buy, people who are picking it up in store haven't had their release dates changed from 12/31, but people who are getting it shipped to them have. Can anyone confirm if this is true? (or, not true. you know. logic.) Edited February 18, 2016 by dragonlordsd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pitchkart Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 I got an email from Best Buy today saying my order's been shipped! :D Hype! Probably will get it Friday afternoon but I can always cross my fingers for tomorrow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaxonH Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 My orders are with BestBuy, all separate orders too. Conquest- shipped Conquest- shipped Birthright- shipped Birthright- shipped Fates New 3DS XL- preparing shipment Special Edition (shipping)- "in progress" Special Edition (store pickup)- "in progress" Special Edition (store pickup)- "in progress" As of 8:30pm Wednesday night. This is a little nerve racking. Only the special editions haven't been updated. All 3 say they release 2/19/16, and "awaiting confirmation" with regard to payment, which was all done with the BestBuy Credit Card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My release date got changed maybe last Friday or Saturday? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaia Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 This best buy situation is fucking awful. It's 2 days before release and copies haven't even been sent out yet holy shit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pitchkart Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 For users using Best Buy to preorder, make sure it's set to expedited shipping -- for some reason by default it gives you the free shipping option, which is all well and good until you realize your game won't ship until the 24th, and fuck that noise. I ended up having to change it a couple days ago (for 11 dollars of course). Hopefully it's not too late for changes at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UndeadPaladin Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 Got mine from best buy. The date updated a while ago but now it is stuck at "awaiting authorization" for the past day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, anyone freaking out over their preorder is probably checking this thread, but alas, some might miss it. I bet mine won't even get to my house til maybe the 20th because of how last minute I changed the shipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonlordsd Posted February 18, 2016 Author Share Posted February 18, 2016 Holy Crap. Well, thanks for that. I just switched to expedited. 12 freaking dollars, but it's worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh, I'll stick with the free shipping since my copy is coming from Amazon. The BB copy was for a friend and I'm not making him pay $12 more haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radiance Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 (edited) I preordered the special at gamestop in door the first day. How do gamestop preorders work in store? Do they call me or what?

AyvuirRed Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 (edited) When I had called BB CS about the 12/31 release date earlier this week I had also asked if my copy would arrive in the 19th with the free shipping and the lady said yes it would Edited February 18, 2016 by AyvuirRed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First time pre ordering a special edition and I paid that shit 100% They either just send you an e-mail or text confirming it a day or two days before, but not always in my experience. Walk in on release day and tell them you have a pre-order for it. They should have asked for a phone number or PowerUp rewards account from you when you pre-ordered and if not, just make sure you have the receipt from the pre-order. If you did give them a phone number or PowerUp rewards account to put it under they'll just ask for it.
