Has ShopTo taken payment for anyone's GameCube controller?
Looks like they haven't got them in stock yet. Same situation with the adapter and the game+Mario amiibo bundle.

That's why only the game or game+adapter bundles have been getting processed/shipped.

 

Perhaps bringing the release date forward created some complications. ::shrug:

Payment was taken for my copy that comes with the adapter but not for the game plus GC controller bundle which I managed to pre-order ages ago for £50 meaning that hopefully they will honour it meaning that I saved something on the controller at least, the other copy is for my brother so I hope that it gets shipped.

 

The only ticket notice I had on the item was ShopTo letting me know that I would need a GC controller adapter in order to the controller to work with the Wii U... :blank:

 

I know this ShopTo, which is why my other order is for a copy of the game with the adapter :indeed: saving me money... they then go on to say that you can purchase the adapter separately for 'insert ludicrous amounts of pounds here' which I'm obviously not going to do.

 

They are probably just making those of us who pre-ordered their unofficial bundle early at such a fantastic 'placeholder' price - at the time - wait until last. ::shrug:

 

*sings to the tune of Conga*

 

'Come on ShopTo, ship it! Come on ShopTo, ship it! Come on ShopTo, ship it!' :D

Good stuff. But where did you get your copy from? :blank:

Considering how strict Nintendo are being with Pokemon games and street dates, I wouldn't be surprised if Shopto's hands were tied here...

 

They're advertising it as "in stock" with dispatch today (normal and adaptor bundle). I think they were waiting for news on the controller, as they just sent me this:

Have you seen how many places have broken street dates?

 

Anyway

Dear Joe,

I got the same e-mail from ShopTo. I was looking for my old purple GC controller but I can't seem to find it anywhere right now. I refuse to play this game with anything but the old GC controler >_<

 

EDIT: I found it!!! ^_^

Not my local independent game store. That's for sure.

Yeah, I tried. They knew that I knew they had it in the back, but they weren't going to break the street date, not even for a lifelong customer.

(Can't be mad at them though, they're selling download cards for Earthbound and Dillon's Rolling Western. That's too awesome. Plus, they did sell me the Bayonetta double pack recently for 30 quid)

 

I can wait though. I've got Lufia GBC to play through still and Golden Sun Dark Dawn.
