[PS3] Ni no Kuni: Wrath of All Y'All Niggas That Got Swindled

Cancelling POs even AFTER charging you beforehand for the product?

God damn, Namco. What a fucking joke.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

lmao

Why did they close that preorder thermometer = new shit thing then?

oh yeah because they didn't want to actually include any extra shit.

fuckin' namco. After cancelling people's shit too. God.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Considering they took the money up front, there really shouldn't have been any transaction failures leading to freed up stock, though.

So who knows.

Maybe they overproduced for demand again and are expecting ridiculous sales for it. ANd then will complain about bad sales are later when it's not a 4M plus mover.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

For what it's worth, Namco has a history of NOT offering pre-order DLC for sale later, so if you're big on those DLC monsters, that's a thing.

There are a few retailer specific DLC monsters, though, and that's all stupid. Imma just gonna go with whatever the Wizard's Edition contains and call it there.

Ahahaha. Nope. That's pretty damn unlikely. They are ignoring, shutting down, and otherwise not paying attention to anything for this release.

Namco doesn't give a fuck. They couldn't give LESS of a fuck if they tried. It's embarrassing.

But no, I doubt there will be additional copies. At this point my primary concern is that the people who paid via paypal but didn't get anything out of it are actually going to get their money back. I'm betting no.

I'm so mad I might just not buy the game period until I get what I want.

A common sentiment, I'm finding. This will hurt this game a lot. What a fucking joke.

And to think that some people used the coupon to reorder the wizard edition last night when it went up for mystery sale again and they HAVE gotten their fucking shipment confirmations.

Blows my MIND. I haven't seen a fuck up of this caliber in years. They deserve to mauled to death by bears.

I was speaking idiomatically.

People also got to use the coupon they were given for their refund to get that CS Order in, so they not only nabbed a copy despite losing earlier, it was also cheaper.

Which is so hilariously shitbrained it's painful.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Yeah, no more WEs sounds about as expected. Load of shit though.

Glad PlayCanada is going to have to refund a chunk of those orders. Mmm. Delicious.

Also this:

[01/25/13 - 19:01:14] <+Diss> lol giving everyone a free guide
[01/25/13 - 19:01:18] <+Diss> Thanks a lot assholes
[01/25/13 - 19:01:22] <+Diss> I'll use it when I play WAIT LOL

And to think they fucked up and shipped me multiples. Good lord.

FELIPE NO

That's exactly why they pushed the guide, so you'd pick up the game anyway, despite the immense fuckup.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

The guide is an IMMENSE fuck you of the highest order.

"Here, have this book who's only use is supplementing the thing you can't play because we fucked you out of it".

And a 20 dollar coupon for a store where you can't buy the game, because the regular edition is also sold out. Also it expires in March. Preorder Naruto!

Correct response would have been a voucher for money off the PSN download edition.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Are you retarded or just on jungle juice?

Of course they still want you to buy shit. And of course they're going to the minimum effort possible to appease you.

The thing is what they're appeasing you with is actually a bit insulting. The fact that it's working is ridiculous.

Do you know how to read? Honest question. Do they teach that in Barista 101?

I'm not inconvenienced at all. They accidentally sent me EXTRA COPIES because they are fucking incompetent.

They are giving you a book that is useless unless you have a copy of NNK.

They are giving you a coupon that expires shortly, so you spend money on their shop.
A shop that doesn't have the regular edition either. A shop that's already proven they can't be trusted with your money, since they take paypal dollars and hold them for a week instead of issuing refunds.

So now you've got a coupon that's no good for what you wanted and a book that's useless.

The only thing they have to replace what you wanted is the digital edition. That's why it's the best bet.

I don't know why you have trouble with this, but hey. Bending over for corporate gain is sort of your thing, isn't it?

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

The book is out of stock on amazon.

Have you considered selling it and then buying it again for a net loss at some point?

How ya doing, buddy?

I'll cast my foot so far up your ass your children will be born with Down's and your girlfriend will get Hepatitis.

Tonnes of people who already bought the guide are getting duplicates now, so ask around. There are a few in chat.

And Tande's already called dibs on it. So eat my shit.

I was speaking idiomatically.

It is made of 100% solid Hepatitis. As dense as lead and as solid as steel.

It'll give you A through E if you're not careful.

Or it would, but PlayCanada already sniped the last four so all I can deliver is the first one.

I'm selling it to Tande at cost + shipping, since she asked first. I feel bad not being able to help out Acer, Term, and everyone else, but there's no real democratic way of doing that after the fact.

How ya doing, buddy?

It is the same thing, yes.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

All of the guides (at least of this initial first batch) are hardcovers.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Yes. The guide they're giving you is this: Amazon.com: Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch: Prima Official Game Guide (9780307895981): Howard Grossman: Books

The Wizard's Compendium is the entire point of the Wizard's Edition, as it's a physical edition of the in-game service of the same name. (Think like a bestiary.)

How much of the compendium is duplicated in the Prima Guide is beyond me. I imagine there's the same core information, just in a less arty and pretty package. It might be reduced to tables. I don't know, but I imagine it's like that.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

UPS is trying to charge me 100 bucks in brokerage fees for delivering this shit.

Luckily Canada Border Services says I can tell them to fuck off and still get my package. Shame I have to wait until Monday to do it.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
