Nintendo Store Uk early delivery?

I have just recieved my complete order from Nintendo UK Official Store via Yodel.

x1 Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer + amiibo card + NFC Reader/Writer
x15 Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer amiibo cards Packs

So not even my cards are here and I'm slightly infuriated :D

There's this place to trade:

But I was thinking we should make a UK/europe one? As it costs more to send outside of it?
 
My XL bundle is now showing as despatched - and via Hermes, which means I should get it around 10am tomorrow. My Hermes guy only has a smallish round so, as long as the depot actually gives it to him in the morning, I will get it in the morning.
 
EpicMeli, I'd be interested in a UK one, some countries in Europe have a pretty ropey postal system and the postage might be high.
My Nintendo UK order is out with Yodel, no sign of it yet, but as I live nearish to a depot (someones front garden!) I guess I might be the last one of the day. ie this evening.
Guess you haven't got the game either?

I've got it but can't play, too much going on here, will try tonight, hopefully.
I opened up & had Redd as the card within the game box.

I'm more bothered about Game & their double charge, can't do much until it hits my card, (I can check it on line so that's something).
 
uhhhh apparently my cards have gone 'in transit' with yodel (the second step) and are expected delivery on saturday...

I thought, nintendo, you would at least get them delivered by release day...

Yodel are more often than not normally next day. At least for me. But I sincerely hope you get them tomorrow though.

I got an email saying my bundle has dispatched via Hermes. The delivery estimate is on or before 6th October, will be annoyed if it doesn't come tomorrow as I was told it would. :/
 
According to Yodel six packs of cards being delivered to my parents house today... God knows when I'll see them. I've asked my mother if she'll mail them to me but who knows if/when that'll happen!

The three pack I ordered to my address are due by the 5th. N3DS XL (that finally shipped an hour or so ago) is due by the 6th. :(
 
My new 3DS arrived today! I was surprised, I've honestly never gotten a game early so I'm so happy, especially since I had a day off today and tomorrow I'm going back to school. So I can now spend the whole day playing HHD, and procrastinate doing work and university applications. ^^ Haha, woops...

I'm pretty sure the "estimated delivery date" is a way of covering their backs in case the courier delays it. You should get it tomorrow, if the courier does what they are supposed to do (and what they have been paid to do). And if your local Hermes delivery person is anything like mine, you will get it tomorrow.
 
Hearing about all these late delivery estimates for consoles isn't good!
I'm assuming it's because we had to pick 'standard delivery' and maybe it's assuming that, when actually it's next day delivery.
 
Aaahhh, didn't think my first post would be here but am in the exact same position as everyone else right now. Mine changed to Awaiting Dispatch a couple hours ago but nothing yet, money has been taken from account tho'. I don't get why they said they'd be sent out today via Next Day Delivery if it's showing up for those who have had their's dispatched as October 5th?

Sobb my first time ordering something from Nintendo and it's been a pretty bad experience for me;;
 
Just got an email from Yodel saying they have delivered my Amiibo cards, though I was/am out so I can't say if it is actually there or if it is a "sorry we missed you" card...

Just waiting on the Royal Mail for the game now...

I would guess that yours will arrive tomorrow as well, as long as the courier does their bit. Nintendo will have sent them all out on a 24 hour delivery - but if the courier doesn't do what they are supposed to that's not Nintendo's fault.
 
I wonder why some cards arriving and others aren't? Mine don't even say estimated delivery until the 3rd.
 
Everyone's complaining about the fact their games *might* not be delivered by tomorrow, and mine is still 'awaiting stock pickup'.... I'm really temped to just cancel it and try my luck in store tomorrow.
And I think they should provide compensation for those who's games are late, considering companies like Game etc. aren't having problems.

Depends on dispatch and courier.

I had some dispatch on Tuesday evening and they're out for delivery today via Yodel (estimated delivery was Oct 2nd though). More dispatched on Wednesday afternoon (I think coming Royal Mail) and their estimated delivery date is October 5th.

I've already cancelled mine and picking up an XL at Game tomorrow :D
 
I was a bit nervous at first about canceling my order from Nintendo, but game has it all ready to go, and they said they have a lot of cards as well. Then I pre ordered my album from amazon instead, and my mom just got the kit from gamestop and they even gave her the poster with it

Deffinately worked out for the better. But if other people have said the xl is departing and yours isn't I'd go to game if you can, Nintendo phone line is incredibly busy (I wonder why >▪>)

Dispatching *
 
game said yesterday morning that my items were dipatched and being delivered soon but right under that it said 'Please note that Pre-orders will be processed ready for delivery on the release date.' so i'm just gonna assume i won't get it until tomorrow which is fine, although it won't let me track my order which is annoying.

this is just for the cards though, i'm chancing it with the game since i'm in the city at 9am, there's quite a few game shops around as well so hopefully i'll be fine
