Feel Sorry For Us

[GirlPolarBear]

I have to wait a week after you guys in NA because I'm from UK!

People on Friday will be driving me nuts because I have to wait a whole week more...

Feel Sorry For Aussies and Europeans...

QQ.. We all had to wait months behind Japan, at least you only have to wait a week more. Just watch some videos, look at pictures, play acnl. It will be over before you know it. UK gets the cool card album and a different poster or the handbag, I could be sad about that, or I can just be thankful Nintendo makes such great games for everyone to play and just be happy with what is available to me.

For release dates I totally get Europe often gets the short end of the stick. However you guys get ALOT of limited edition and special edition items and consoles we don't ever see in NA. Your club nintendo also had way better rewards so honestly I think you guys have it made, I would rather wait a little longer for a release and get better items in return.

So true, the things I would do for that limited edition tacky pink 2DS ಥ‿ಥ
You're almost there, though! Hopefully you'll have some cool videos to look at beforehand as well.

I would trade places with the UK/EU and AU in a millisecond if waiting one more week meant I could get the LE HHD N3DSXL and a card album. Yeah, NA gets the game a week earlier, but you guys get better options and swag overall, in my opinion.

I'm also waiting a week, just to save a few bucks on the bundle with the NFC reader.

I am sorry you guys have to wait longer, the wait just for the US is already killing me. I am also a little jealous of that awesome collectors album you guys are getting though!

 

[watercolorwish]

Sorry you have to wait a bit longer ><' Its just a week though, you can do it! Just think of how much the wait was worth it after

 

[Jake]

I'm in australia which means we get it last but it's literally only a week and it's a spin off title, not a main series, so the wait really isn't that bad at all, all things considered. especially when you realize that a few years ago the wait between PAL and NA releases was a few months, yeah, I can wait no problem.

 

[Megan.]

I also have to wait a week but as said above we get better items + the beautiful N3DS XL. It's worth the wait.

If anything I feel bad for those in NA. I'm more than happy to wait for my bundle (I'm in the UK ) but it seems the release in NA was handled the worst in my opinion. All you get is one limited ds and it's not even an xl, while Nintendo UK has tons of different bundles and faceplate options, and it doesn't even seem like they really had pre orders for the cards in NA

At first I thought waiting was bad, but then I personally expected the UK to get the least amount of bundle options for some reason

Idk if I'd go that far - the New 3DS XL bundle costs around ?210 on Nintendo UK store - $320.
On Amazon is costs ?200 - $305.
The regular New 3DS bundle costs ?175 on amazon - $266.

As far as I'm aware, the regular New 3DS bundle costs much less in America and limited edition XLs including a game cost $230-$250.

Not to mention, US is getting an exclusive Zelda limited edition New 3DS XL that I haven't seen confirmed for anywhere else. I know people on this site will obviously care more for the Animal Crossing XL but the Zelda 3DSXL is as big of a deal as the Animal Crossing one.

Also the collector's album is only available if you're buying a new console? I'm not getting it but that seems unfair to everyone who can't afford a new console/ don't want to buy a new console just for an album.

8 more days for the UK and 1 more day for Americans.

I don't think you can really compare price though, it's a fact most electronics/games cost more to buy in the UK, and that's due to the taxes and currency conversion. So it has nothing to do with just Nintendo, it's pretty much every electronic.

The zelda ds is irreverent really unless you want to compare every single difference between what NA gets and the UK, this thread is just about animal crossing HHD. My main point which I think most people can agree with, the NA release was handled poorly. You have retailers who still don't know what they will and won't have. And a majority who aren't taking pre orders.

And that would be incorrect. The collectors album was announced for Europe and was going to be released on October 2nd to buy, however due to recent stock issues now it's uncertain if it will even be sold separate. But there seems to be stock issues with most things related to this game everywhere, not just in the uk

I do think NA should have gotten more than just a poster and one bundle, but that's also just my opinion. And being someone who was planning to get it in NA since I am American, I'd be rather to ticked off to see that the UK can pre order theirs cards, yet gamestop, best buy etc. Still aren't offering it a week before release

I'm in the UK but I already have the Japanese version and I'm getting the US one so I don't have to wait a week

 

[milkday]

I'm already feeling sorry for myself ;~;
I preordered the bundle with the reader and it comes out the day after my birthday :/

[ElysiaCrossing]

I officially ordered mine today and i'll have to wait about a week for it to come in. I'm super excited and wish it could come tomorrow but I know that's super unrealistic. I also bought a few things off of ebay so i'll be waiting for stuff for a while

 

[Jo555]

Like what everyone else said here, at least UK gets more bundle options. I would definitely rather wait a week than not get the XL bundle at all

And as for Zelda Hyrule limited edition XL to be honest it looks exactly like the Majora's mask one to me.
