I'd still recommend pre-ordering ASAP. DR2 went super fast, but since it IS a big title for NISA, I'm sure they will be stocking more for this one.
I'm in the same boat.
Our only hope is that by the time they charge us for it, the CDN dollar might have bounced back a bit.
What shipping option did you choose? Even with paid shipping mine was $81.
I'll have to wait until next month in any case, this should last at least that long.
He's talking about Canadian dollar. $1 USD roughly equals $0.80 CDN.
1 was $50 for a 16 page art book and a soundtrack in a box
2 was $60 for a 32 page art book, soundtrack, monokuma coin, sunglasses, and a sticker in a box
another episode is $65 for a 32 page art book, soundtrack, tie, tie clip, pin, and eyepatch inside a box.
Don't forget the game.
So was I. I incorrectly assumed that they would show the Canadian price when I entered my address.
they had games?

Is NISA holding up their philosophy of charging painfully high cargo costs for EU? If so, I will pass. Otherwise, who knows.

Christfuck, why is the NISA online store checkout so terrible? It's ridiculous that I have to wait on a slow AJAX call to come back every time I do anything.
Well, I got the LEs for the previous games, guess I'll keep the tradition going with this one.
Kind of glad it's only $65 (was fearing it'd be $70, considering DR1 was $50 & then DR2 was $60). Granted, it's not as neat as DR2's LE (dem sunglasses & Monocoin), but this is still cooler than DR1's "meh" LE....though hopefully the OST goes for quality over quantity, considering it's only 15....
Sure hope I can get the funds in time for Sept.

the box for 2 was a whole lot better and bigger than 1's
I imagine AE will be similar to that

Seconding that I've been satisfied with NISA's shipping. It's been a long time since I ordered directly from them (vanilla Disgaea 4 pre-order), but the packing was nice.
I don't remember the shipping type I used though.

Pre-order status: Done
I hate that I didn't get the LE for the second game

Ah, so 2 was $60, but the point still stands that the price of their LE has gone up, and it can probably do without the little nicknacks.

Of course you don't need it; you WANT IT.
Wait, lemme check my copies!

Someone needs to put "You bought a Vita" on that and make the loop slightly smoother.

Ah, $65. So if we get it in Europe that'll be £65.
I'm so over NISA EU store anyway.

Is anyone else having issues checking out? When I go to the place order page, it's basically blank and won't let me order.

the nicknacks make the limited editions more valuable on the second hand market since a full limited edition becomes harder to find the more things get packed in and inevitably lost or sold piecemeal.

Same. It's like all white and won't let me order.
this always happens when a new limited edition goes up. everyone rushes to the store and it kind of kills their site for a while.

Huh. I feel the exact opposite. This game is exciting to me because it shows they're willing to stretch the universe beyond a somewhat tired Phoenix Wright clone. I don't know if a 3D action game is where it should go, necessarily, but I like the experimentation.
Suffice to say, if Danganronpa 3 involves another shoehorned-in killing game I'll be kind of disappointed.

I'll pay you $2 million for that I'm with Stupid patch.
Yeah, I understand why you'd feel the opposite, it's pretty much a preference thing. I don't think a Phoenix Wright clone would ever feel tired to me though, because the murder mysteries can stand up on their own to me.
Plus there's the fact that while I enjoy world-building, I'm just not a fan of Dangan Ronpa's world in particular. It's not my kind of cartoonish, if that makes sense.
I don't mind DR3 staying away from a killing game, but if it doesn't have a murder mystery related gameplay I'd probably not buy it.
As much of a collector I am, I'd prefer a LE without the the small stuff that could raise the price of the LE at the cost of having a more expensive LE in the future. And you can't count on selling the nicknacks separately to make up the difference. The market for that is extremely small.

Meh, I'll probably pass on this since I ended up regretting spending the extra $20 on the DR2 LE. If I ordered the standard game of their store, would they still ship it early so it arrives of the release date like they did with the LE or do they just do it normally for standard releases?
well for me, i like the extra stuff, especially if it's something from the game. i wish we'd gotten the link scarf from hyrule warriors. something like that is neater to me than the ganondorf/skullkid figure... although having those as $10 limited edition bonuses is a pretty good price.
Don't forget the 10-20£ for shipping if you're not living in the UK (like, hum I don't know >80% of European ?)

I imagine they will, just haven't ordered a non limited edition of a NISA game in who knows how long.
I do believe that the standard editions are shipped from a different warehouse than the limited editions so they probably will ship them early but it just depends on where you are and how far you are from their warehouses.

A few months ago I'd barely know what this anime shit was, now after playing through the first two back to back this is a must buy. Is the limited edition available in Australia?
well there's not much on the ps3 side of things anymore.

Debating if I want to splurge for this or get the regular version. It's definitely pricier than either DR1 or DR2 LEs but then again, I did get my DR1 LE in the most roundabout way after settling for the regular initially.
Ugh, need to keep an eye out on this and mull it over.
