    I preordered special edition from smyths at 12 today and they sent an email that is is dispatched.

    How long does delivery from smyths take


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 241 ✭✭conormario


    Dunno. My tracking id (dpd) is coming up empty.

    In the meantime, digital foundry do great technical reviews of games.

    I'm really trying to avoid these 'cause they contain too many spoilers.
    But really, the game looks beautiful. I guess this is the first handheld top down HD Zelda game. Still gonna play it on the big screen. :-)

    Been trying since i asked the question here, no answer.

    The text I received last night said to call 0768 886 224 from ROI if I didn't get the email with link to update payment details. Maybe that number would be useful ?

    Has anyone gotten a text or email from Smyths? I pre ordered the special edition on the first day it was available but haven't heard from them and they haven't attempted to take money yet.

    Was it for home delivery or collection?

    If its collection, they won't text you until the store is closed and they don't take money off your card

    Ahh, that's hopefully the issue. I have it for collection.

    You'll probably get the text at 9pm tonight then. And they don't touch your card, they'll just ask you to pay at the desk when you pick it up (within two/three days).

    Scratch that. Just had €75 deducted from Smyths 5 mins ago.

    Go hardcore and finish it in one sitting, it can easily be done if you have played it before.

    Nah I need an S rank with all the ladies and to catch them rare fish

    I'll probably try do Links Awakening in one sitting but Fire Emblem that's forever.

    88 on Metacritic?! That's it, preorder cancelled!

    Would you/anyone else know if cash can be paid at the desk instead of card? Would be handy to have a friend pick it up for me and save me the drive after work tomorrow.

    Ha!

    Delivery tomorrow for me. Never played this. Planning to give it a spin but complete some older Zelda games first that I haven't quite finished. Good problems :)

    Some limited editions just became available in Smyths for click and collect...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,029 ✭✭✭um7y1h83ge06nx


    Anyone order from TheGameCollection?

    They took the money on Wednesday and when I looked at my account yesterday it showed as shipped. I'm hoping it ends up in my Parcel Motel tomorrow morning.

    Yep, got a shipped notification yesterday morning. I'm considering buying from the estore (using 2 for 99 deal) and returning the physical to game collection if it's not going to be here this weekend.

    Are you sending it to Parcel Motel or home? It might make it to Northern Ireland today and hopefully to a Parcel Motel tomorrow.

    60 quid is pure madness for this. Switch prices suck.
