No Shenmue III for Real1 today. Oh well, Monday it is then!

 

[shenmue-fan]

lol will be interesting to see what they say I wonder if we should chime in to say that amazon.de, half of New York, and others have already broke it.

Well, not for me that is. My CE, ordered at amazon.de, still says it will be delivered by Tuesday. Which is a bummer...

Has anyone in mainland Europe received it today ?

No. I think we'll start to receive it from Monday. I checked, Spiral Games is based near Birmingham, in Telford.
So, to reach us, our copy has to go through these steps: Telford → Royal Mail international hub @ Heathrow → your country's customs (should be fast) @ your capital city airport → Airport's dispatching center → Regional dispatching center → House.
48 hours are too short

Received confirmation that my backer copy has been dispatched and been provided with a tracking number :) UK

Ok ! Thanks for checking !
I really wonder why Amazon De accepts to dispatch the game when other Amazon's and stores are waiting for monday :-/

Fnac Belgium prepared my order and are waiting to give it to a carrier. If they do it today, it could arrive tomorrow. We'll see...

Being conservative to cover themselves I guess.

received a dispatched email for one of my backer copies with tracking for Royal Mail. Still waiting for the second so I’m sure it’ll arrive soon (the email that is).

Such a shame that Deepsilver/Koch media are playing it this way, when loads of people already broke the street date.

Just FYI, I will not receive my review code from DeepSilver before the 19th, which is a bummer.

 

[DJMH]

I'm about twenty minutes away from Shenhua's house in my current shenmue 2 playthrough. Perfect timing!

 

[Reprise]

Why am I still waiting on my dispatch email?

 

[You Arcade]

Why am I still waiting on my dispatch email?

Same. Everyone seemed to have got it but me I thought.

Yay it's not just me haha.

 

[Goro Harasaki]

British folks will probably get it before us, non-Brexited Europeans.

I saw a Koch employee asking a Youtuber in the comments section to erase his playthrough video.
Man it's too late, it was predictable that some small independent retailers would break the street date. They should have not provided them so early...

Dispatched

See you all in a couple of weeks

That really is ridiculous. I wonder if that is the case for all outlets.

 

[Sh3ppy]

Just curious as to why folks are getting pissed about not being able to buy before the 19th? The release date was the 19th so for anyone that got it before, great, but it is what it is. Don’t see how it’s a shambles or ridiculous for outlets to stick to the official release date. Unless I’m totally missing something here. In which case I apologise.
