Australia thread?
Stores should have been open for about an hour now, at least as far as the east coast is concerned.
Anyone had any luck with getting the X/Y early?

K-mart and Big W dont have their stocks coming in until the 10th, and EB are scared to break first. JB is the best option.

I have no doubt that they'll start SHIPPING the orders on 10/10, as their site says 'or before release date'. However, it's unlikely in my opinion that people will receive the game before the 12th

There's literally no chance for people to get it by the 12th if they ordered it from ozgameshop. They don't express ship as far as I know (since their shipping is free) and you can't get post on a Saturday anyway. Monday 14th at the earliest and it usually takes two to three weeks for their packages to arrive in Australia (or that's my experience, at least).

When has anyone here, trying to break the street date, stated they are not impatient?
Of course we are impatient, that is what this is all about.
You pointing that out does not give you some form of moral high ground to look down upon others from.

You imply that being impatient is intrinsically wrong and you're superior to us because you can wait. You call us cunts and nagging children when all we do is ask nicely.
You are saying that in the event we do get the game early because we asked nicely, we do not deserve it because we could not wait.

We aren't the cunts here. You are. You couldn't just ignore the thread.

Katriona I think is wrong, the catalogue in which Pokemon X/Y is advertised starts on the 10th, however it clearly states in the catalogue that pokemon will be released on the 12/10 (http://catalogues.bigw.com.au/catalogue/big-w-catalogue-entertain-this-summer-1010/4w4tb2br5.html?pid=promotedCatalogue#pageNo=0)
I work at Big W and I very much doubt Big W will break street date as when a game is emargoed, it simply wont scan into the registers so we are unable to sell them.

If anyone is curious, just called up JB Hifi, where I've preordered. They'll honour any lower price. There's no Big W around where I am, but there is a Target, so that drops it down to $49 instead of $54, at least.

Incidentally, they said that they're aware that others have broken the street date, but can't do anything until upper management gives them the go-ahead. If they do, though, they'll text everyone who's preordered it to let them know.

They should pricematch, but you may not get the EB pre order exclusive (a pokeball I believe), however it depends on the manager at each specific store. Take the Big W catalogue, its $44 opposed to Target's $49.

Abbot is great if you are a white middle-class male who uses the car as your main form of transportation. Are you not that demographic, such as being a female, not middle class, or using a train or other form of transportation? You are shit out of luck.

Sorry to get a bit /pol/ here. Anywhere else confirmed for a midnight release in Melb?

Using this article, it is possible to trick some of the staff, as you can see the sale starts on Thursday but there is a small pic saying that the games aren't released until the 12th. But since it's quite small it is easy for a staff member to overlook it.

The nice lady there looked on the computer and informed me that while they had copies stocked it didn't release until tomorrow.

I'm dubious about it being legit, but doesn't hurt to try tomorrow anyway.

Brisbane. Cannon Hill EB. Confirmed for breaking street date on THURSDAY. Call them and confirm for yourself. The rumor is they're doing it because some 16/f/cali employee at the Target down the road said they'd have X'n Y on the shelves Thursday.

Think I'll just let others embarrass themselves and break the street date for me on the off chance this is legit.

Except when you say it out loud, suddenly you look like an idiot unable to distinguish gender.
Something else, like the suggestion before, the contains an actual pokemon name would be better.

Fine, something more casual then.
The new code will be "So how 'bout them knicks?"
Almost the same as asking about the weather

Just wait the three more days for fucks sake. I could understand if we were getting it months later than the rest of the world like some games, but seriously guys, we live in a country that almost always gets fucked over in terms of game releases, and Nintendo went out of its way to make things fair for us and all the other small countries who have massive delays on games, why jeopardize that because you can't wait a few days?

Because faggots got the games early making the worldwide release pointless since we already know every single new pokemon yet we still don't know all the version exclusives.

Why is would anyone worry about Australian street breaks stopping Nintendo doing worldwide releases? Heaps of leakers have already "ruined" it for other countries, and what, has there never been any leaks from Japan in the past?

Why should anyone who doesn't work for or have shares in the retailer care about them being fined in the slightest? Suck corporate dick harder.

Anyone know about anything in Tasmania? Particularly the Launceston region? I doubt many people from that area would be on here, but worth a shot anyway.
