    Default Two more days

    Until us greedy Americans can finally get our hands on Bravely Default. Well, won't be a day one purchase for me as I have some money to raise. Would anyone like to donate to the ToriJ, "For the love of God get a 3DS now!" charity drive? No? Worth a shot.

    Any of my fellow Americans plan on getting this game on the 7th?

    Any European and Australians gamers want to rub in the fact you guys got to play this game two months in advance?

    I'll be getting it immediately. Been looking forward to it for a while, and the demo was amazing. I'm also one of the lucky few who got the Collector's Edition (which sold out on the day it was announced).
    My friend Delzethin is currently running a GoFundMe account to pay for some extended medical troubles he's had. He's had chronic issues and lifetime troubles that have really crippled his career opportunities, and he's trying to get enough funding to get back to a stable medical situation. If you like his content, please support his GoFundMe, or even just contribute to his Patreon.

    He can really use a hand with this, and any support you can offer is appreciated.

    I've had it on pre-order at Amazon for a month. It ought to get Primed here a day or two after release. I have high hopes for this game.

    I like how already there's a browser game and sequel in the works, a desire to make one every year and 300,000 copies sold before even coming to the US. Man, we're late to the party this time. I'm curious to see how sales do over here, but I can't help but have this feeling people over here will find stupid reasons to hate it >.>

    I will get it eventually but I have a lot of 3DS games to play and not a lot of time so it might be a while.

    I pre-ordered the Collector's Edition a few days ago from Best Buy

    I've been playing the demo recently and I enjoy it. I love that you can play the demo for a few hours and still not be done with it, plus the fact that some of the items you obtain carry over to the full game.

    Oh yes, I'm ready

    I can't wait. Finally something to pull me away from Eorzea.

    Best of luck actually getting the pre-order. I've heard stories of people ordering from Amazon and Newegg having the collectors editions pre-orders cancelled cause they have less stock than anticipated. Not intending to worry, but just beware about it.

    Not a big fan of pre-ordering things, myself. I'd rather just wait for the game to be released.

    Pre-ordering is for chumps. Be a man and camp outside Gamestop at midnight like the rest of us.

    God I want this game so bad. Unfortunately my friend hasn't sent me the 3DS XL that they gifted me a couple months ago yet. So, the wait will continue for me. Which sucks. But I hope to have this soon.

    Pre-ordering was the only way to get the collectors edition in the UK. Standard editions are at basically every online retailer though.

    Yeah, that's another thing I hate about pre-orders, only giving away certain stuff if you pre-order like extra content. Or a collector's edition as in this case.

    I just pimped the hell out of this game on Facebook. You're welcome, Square

    I find Pre-Orders bonuses only really relate to the retailer GAME. For example, if you pre-order Yoshi's New Island from the you get a Yoshi Egg Carry case. You end up putting £5 down, but that's taken off the cost of the game at retail. Problem is that the games are more epensive from retailers than compared to amazon where I get most my games, so the pre-order bonus is just an incentive to pick it up from the store.

    If there is no extra goody for pre-ordering though, don't do it. I just wait for the game to go down in price unless I want it Day 1, or are interested in the sucess of that series (e.g. fire emblem, bought that day one beacuse we don't see many strategy RPG games on the 3DS and it'd be cool to get more hint hint square enix.)
