    It's out of stock in most of the websites I've checked, don't really want to download it

    Don't know your location, but gamestop in the square had loads yesterday at 17:30 when I bought mine.
    €59.99.

    I looked on the gamestop website and it said there were none in stock in my local store, but maybe I will check anyway just in case.

    Gamestop will be getting delivery of it back in on Wednesday, according to all the ones I asked. I got mine in blanchardstown yesterday afternoon, but I wouldn't say there was anymore in stock there.

    This is when the lack of GAME and HMV is really noticeable :(

    I hardly ever bought games in Gamestop before tbh, they were always more expensive. Now it's between them, Tesco, Argos, Smyths and Xtravision I suppose, if I can't wait til the online shops restock. Will check my Xtravision tomo but don't have much hope of it being in stock there

    Amazons third party sellers have it in stock. But they are charging 50-55 sterling for it plus postage, crazy. Cheaper to download it on PSN or just wait it out. It's out of stock in UK shops too.

    You can also still order from amazon if you hit "new." Works out at about €45 delivered but they aren't getting stock back in until the 19th.

    You can also buy it from gamesnash.ie for €51.99 delivered. Irish company too but also no stock until mid Feb.

    There's also someone selling a copy on adverts.ie for €50, collected in Dublin only though.

    I'm going to wait it out. Not giving gamestop €59.99 for it anyway.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,835 ✭✭✭✭cloud493


    Sure if you follow the trade in tip someone gave in the ni no kuni thread, you get it way cheaper than that. I only paid 32.

    Is it tomorrow for GameStop in Dublin or is there any point checking out the ones in the city centre today?

    I just rang Liffey Street and they said tomorrow or Thursday for all their stores. Might be some stores still have stock though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 779 ✭✭✭jaxdasher


    I was in Stephens green today. I think there are stock there. I didn't ask but the boxes didn't have the "out of stock" sticker just the price sticker.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,835 ✭✭✭✭cloud493


    Stephens green was out of stock on Sunday. Might be in tomorrow mind.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 74 ✭✭lukasbolander


    Went to Gamestop today and they were out of stock. Might try again tomorrow.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 72 ✭✭Stevie_D_D


    I'm gonna try Gamestop tomorrow morning, really looking forward to the game :)

    Any luck?

    I rang again yesterday and the guy said he was unpacking the delivery and there was no Ni No. Said next delivery was Saturday. Maybe it's not the same for all stores though.

    Just back from town, checked Stephen's Green and then the shops around Henry Street. Out of stock in all the Gamestops and no sign of it in Smyths or Argos. The lad in Gamestop Henry St said if I waited around for an hour or so they might get it delivered today, so maybe somebody will get lucky this afternoon


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 698 ✭✭✭sin0city


    In stock in Charlestown SC. They got it in this morning so the other shops probably got delivery too.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 52,407 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    Seems back in stock in many online places as well.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,024 ✭✭✭✭ShaneU

    Same, got dead space 3 on the same deal, 35 quid total :)


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 10,681 Mod ✭✭✭✭F1ngers


    How?

    There is a trade in deal, see post 11.

    He didn't get it for €10 then, it cost €10 and 2 games;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,835 ✭✭✭✭cloud493


    Still cheaper than gamestops price.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 698 ✭✭✭sin0city


    Got it on the trade in deal too and played a fair bit over the weekend.

    Cannot recommend it highly enough. It looks incredible and the fact that the soundtrack is performed by the Tokyo philharmonic orchestra is just epic. Gameplay, quests, characters and voice acting are all of the highest quality.

    Just get it wherever you can :-)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,835 ✭✭✭✭cloud493


    A few of the gamestops have taken the sold out price stickers off as well :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 698 ✭✭✭sin0city


    I'm avoiding the main thread in case of spoilers and I usually stay away from guides but I was confused about how some things about familiars worked. Came across this, handy if you're just starting out. No spoilers unless you consider the name of a character you'll meet a spoiler. Full guide can also be got online and looks like it'll be handy when choosing between familiars.

    Cool will check that if I get confused too, my copy arrived from amazon this morning :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,835 ✭✭✭✭cloud493


    I bought the wizards edition online, so I have a spare copy of the standard edition up for swap In the swapping thread :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,283 ✭✭✭✭RobbingBandit


    Thinking of selling my sealed Wizards Edition,not sure if I should flea bay it or what, I am happy with my standard edition for the time being,seems a shame to leave it gathering dust on my shelf.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 115 ✭✭brendor


    Smyths have it in stock in some stores today.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 508 ✭✭✭Issac


    Tried Gamestop in DunLaoghaire yesterday, nothing then but they said there's a delivery coming in tomorrow and there may be some NNK in the box. Possibly.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,174 ✭✭✭✭Captain Chaos


    Amazons Feb 19th delivery sold out in hours and will have some stock in again on the 25th. This is madness, just print off more copies. What is wrong with the supply and demand chain here. Forcing higher prices of the game due to low supply? Looks that way. Most games would have dropped to €45 by now but this one has gone up in price since release.

    Always go to Dun Loaghaire myself. Staff are alot friendlier and more chances of finding a game you want.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9 FistKing


    Is there any website that sells the limited edition for a reasonable price or is ebay and alike my best bet? Zavvi managed to screw up my order, how I don't know. All places I've seen have absurd prices on it which I expected anyway due to the limited prints.
