She is so lucky, I wish I got the game early I hate waiting.
I don't even care anymore, they should just screw over the video game market and release games digitally. I'd gladly have DRM like how the Xbox One was going to be for SMASSSHHHH
I don't think the DRM will be the same as the Xbox one DRM, if the game are digital it makes sense to have DRM so you wouldn't share it over the internet. Microsoft DRM was for physical games so if you get it used you have to pay them to play it. You can't get used digital games so it won't effect you.

Part of me is REALLY excited for the people who got it--they get to enjoy it early and from the sounds of what Pidgezero and others have said, won't leak anything (not that there's anything particularly noteworthy to leak that we know of, but yeah).
On the other hand...I still have to wait two weeks...:dazwa:
2 weeks isnt even that long anyway

But can you wait TWO weeks?
oh yeah I can wait two weeks. thats nothing for me. I have waited much longer for things. I can wait a simple two weeks. two weeks is nothing like waiting a year to get back into college because of some crap financial aid pulled

what's there to sue about it's just a little in game bonus its not like its hinting at an unannounced character or anything, right?
Do you even know what NDAs are and how legal stuff works?

And stop thinking that characters are the only thing that matters to Nintendo for this game. Smash Bros is a heavily content filled game, there's plenty and plenty of things we have not seen yet. This ranges from stages, music, event match challenges, etc. Just because we've seen every character does not mean there's nothing to hide.

So much this. It's only some players that think only the characters matter.

Definitely this my friend. But the sad part in modern reality is people believe every crossover games = characters, other than that nobody cares as they say its meaningless.

To be fair, Smash is one of the few crossover games where more than the characters actually matter. Ironically so. All those Capcom crossovers? Rarely are the courses more than essentially the same thing, sometimes with breakable backgrounds. There's no items. The music is rarely noted. There's... endings, and that's about it, but those are tied to characters. There's so many character clones that the gameplay is only somewhat looked at. Smash has far less clones, so the gameplay is more unique by default.

I love the music and love battling to the tracks, but its hard to appreciate some tracks like Star Wolf's theme/ sector Z for obvious reasons, (especially now that Fox and Falco are nerfed and almost anyone can beat them) the music is really good if you get into it, for me I always get into the battle when certain tracks play and when I'm playing as a certain character, For example It feels really satisfying to play as Ganondorf with Gerudo Valley blasting in the background.

NDAs are also an important tool for maintaining positive relationships with the gaming media.

It is better for everyone if reviews (and ALL press content, from all outlets) must all be held back to be released the same day. Otherwise it turns into a game of "Who can write the crappiest review the fastest, and get the most clicks."

They aren't trying to hide Lucas and Ice Climbers from you; they are giving IGN and pals time to produce halfway decent pieces of journalism, with comprehensive sets of screenshots and well-edited videos.

People getting games early happens all the time.
Yep. Happens lots. And everyone hates it. But that's life. Competition winner copies. Press review copies. Etc etc. They all exist. Nothing we can do about it. This person did brag about it though. That's not really nice.

WHAT THE FLYING RIDLEY
Is that some sort of insult now because Ridley is not in the game as a humanly playable character?

Like I said, her bragging about it sounds like she wants peeps to be jealous and likes the attention she is getting but thats just me thinking outloud
I have experience with people like that. Its best to just go ok and dont say much of anything else
Not sure is 25 y/os go on twitter to brag about think in peoples faces though

I'm jealous that she gets these free GC controllers and amiibos as well.

I would never even get the CHANCE to enter a tournament where I can win the game or any prize, because they never do events in Australia, let alone close enough to me, despite charging Aus more expensive prices on everything than the US and Aus still having lots of Nintendo customers.

oh no its not a crime to be happy and more power to her for getting it early. I may sound mean because In all honesty, I don't care if she got it early. If I did sound super rude this entire time, I'm very very sorry. Maybe I should be more mad at the person who made this thread pfff idk.

Judging from all your posts on this thread; you sound like an extremely bitter person...

I live in Australia also. And yes we get the short end of the stick for competitions and game releases/prices. But after this happening for decades I thought you'd have gotten used to it by now. I have.

Yeah I'm used to it, but that doesn't make it any less unfair. I know I can't change it, but I just don't like how this country gets this garbage for no reason.

I feel bad for you guys in AUS. I wish they would make getting games a bit easier for you guys instead of rating
Atelier Totori R-18 When it was rated T everywhere else for what they call " High impact sexual violence" like...WHAT is HIGH IMPACT sexual violence

How long does it take normaly for a game to be imported from Japan to the US? My friend imports Atelier games for his vita and PSs all the time and he gets it in about a week or a few days.

Let's see...

First I order the game at some Japanese retail site but it'll take a day to send it to tenso.com, once they arrive next day I must put an order to send it here but it'll take another day to send it to the post office, and once the plane departures it'll take around 2-3 days to ship so...

Yup, around 5-7 days I can get it.
