They're even more concret now!

Ships in August 2014.

We will see..... I believe it when I get it.

Why will this take another 6 months to ship? The game is done, make the boards, print the insert and get it out the door.

 

[mahesak]

Have pre-order for both AES version already

No doubt
No worried
No think a lot

 

[Fox1]

And yet I still can't justify almost $800 after shipping for a cart.

Am also trying to justify this purchase at the moment, I thought they use to have preorder discounts.

 

[suicidekiller]

Anyone else thinking the price of 499€ isn't justified for an almost 8 year old game?
On top of that the game will ship in 5 months? Ridiculous.

+1

This is milking it a little too much......then again....it is the AES after all.

 

[whisper2053]

By now, I'd think they know *exactly* how many are going to sell. And will sell. Regardless.

Price accordingly for suckers.

 

[SNKorSWM]

There's the option to wait for the LE and save yourself 50 euros.

 

[Jerebko85]

I just make preorder for both versions

 

[Lee Gray]

i dont know really if the few extras are worth the extra 50 euros but decided to preorder one anyway.

That is the issue If it were up to me I'd wait for the EU to collapse monetarily then all those carts will be ours!!

 

[vincewy]

Just a reminder that less than 10 copies left for each version, that's how quickly this thing sells.

Somehow I think 150 copies are just too few for each new release at this point, NG DEV TEAM should allocate 200 - 300 copies for each release in the future. Of course, this will depend on availabilities of additional snap-lock cases and cart shells as they will be running out of current stock after LHPB release (look at how long it took to get them).
