Wehkamp.nl is apparantly sending the game today if you order before 22:00 (€57 incl. shipping). And according to the Mycom.nl site the game will be delivered tomorrow if you order before 23:30 (€55 total).

 

So if you're in a gambling mood...:heh: (I'm still not sure if I crave it enough for the 5-7 euro extra)

 

Thanks, but I'll be trying to order it somewhere cheaper if I'll be able to find it and I want it to arrive on June 2nd or later.

So... Basically, we're getting it last aren't we?

 

Seems so, in France and Germany they're selling it since yesterday, and as @Tales is also playing, so does Norway I guess, lucky people ;)

 

Still nobody selling here in Holland, as far as I know.

 

I'm bad at this game they call patience, prefer to play MK ;)

Suppose it's just as well that I'm working constantly all week until Friday anyway, so it wouldn't matter if I got it early or not :p

We don't have it yet in Denmark, although my pre-order was shipped yesterday. I just fear they are going to put it in the post office and then send out a slip so I can collect it on Friday (Ascension Day tomorrow means that the post office is closed...) I really hope to get it today!

I never liked Ascension Day and now I do even less.

Yes, I went there, sold my soul to the Devil and now I'll burn in hell :(

Online gameplay. And finally an answer to my question, although not the one I wanted:

 

 

Ugh... You still have to sit through an ongoing race before you can play. :zzz:

Around 4 minutes from selecting your kart combo to the actual start of a race. icon13.gif

Not so much of an issue initially, when we'll be playing marathon online sessions. But this will definitely be annoying later on, when you just want to jump on for a quick race or two, and have to sit through that every single time you go online. :(

To be fair, it depends on what point the race it puts you in is at.

Yeah, but in previous MK games that's nearly always been at the start, or early stages of a race. So I'm assuming it's going to be the same story with 8.

 

I think you've just been unlucky mate. I've usually joined near the end of the race.

Damn. :blank:

I have managed to join games before where the ongoing race has literally just ended (bloody rare occurrence though) which is awesome, but yeah, I just wish you could click on worldwide vs, choose your character/kart, wait a few seconds and then be on the start line ready to go. ::shrug:

Same! How exciting!

I still haven't even given much thought into the free game... think I'm gonna go for W101. Although now I will have 2 copies of the game (and 2 club ninty accounts :heh: ) then I will prob have to choose another! Not a bad thing!
