To anyone who got it early, can you tell me the size of the packaging. Trying to judge whether or not I can fit it in a small travel suitcase so as I can take it home safely tomorrow morning via public transport

32cm x 37cm x 19.5cm

I know this probably goes without saying but it is quite heavy, wouldn't fancy carrying it too far.

Same here. Status also says "Exception" with no explanation, so that's fun. :mad:

mine now says "in transit: on time" with delivery estimated before close of business tomorrow, would be happy enough with that

I'm in the same boat as u mate, I'm either gonna be standing in the cold waiting for the doors to open or standing in the que at midnight when the que is moving. I like the second option best

tinodz · 22-11-2013 12:20AM

I am going to go to my local at 12:10, and ask for The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds... that'll confuse them!

For anyone interested,

HMV Limerick (work there) will have a handful of consoles to sell at 9 tomorrow morning.
They're the Forza day one edition consoles.

All the rest are pre-ordered

We're not doing midnight as we didn't get enough orders to warrant one as we only reopened in September,

My advice would be to be there when shutters open at 9

Sitting in the car outside Smyths Bray. Not a soul in sight.
