stillfastasleep Posted January 12, 2006 Report Share Posted January 12, 2006 Like many others I thought that Elektroplankton would be an online sale only game, so I was more than a little suprised to see copies gracing the display case at my local EB. I was told they had an in-store sales exclusive for the game. So, if you don't want to bother with ordering online head down to EB. Canadian price is $39.99. No price matching with future shop on this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
secretvampire Posted January 12, 2006 Report Share Posted January 12, 2006 So how is it? I've got one on order, but I'm quite curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan FB Posted January 12, 2006 Report Share Posted January 12, 2006 As far as I know, EB Canada has them in-store due to a special agreement, the US stores do not unless you preordered. A good thing for Canadians, as apparently it was quite hard to find an online store which carried it and shipped to Canada. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stillfastasleep Posted January 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 So how is it? I've got one on order, but I'm quite curious. I didn't pick it up. I'm total crap when it comes to music games or anything rhythmic. I did try it out brieflyl while I was there. There are ten electroplankton to fool with, I really had no idea what I was doing or what the actual point of this product is. I can only guess its designed to be an experiential product. Nice box art, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Covak Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 I actually had this game preordered with BestBuy.ca. Then yesterday morning I checked and it was still in a "Not Yet Shippable" state, despite them having many copies in stock, ready to ship. So I cancelled the preorder and put in a regular order. It's status has been "Shippable" since yesterday morning... Maybe I'll try my luck at EB tonight. I know someone who bought it from EB. He said they only got 2 copies :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angry the Clown Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 A good thing for Canadians, as apparently it was quite hard to find an online store which carried it and shipped to Canada. The Canadian based dealer I use often for imports, Videogames Plus, doesn't seem to be getting any. They did list it last year but now there are no results when searching for it on their website. I'm rather miffed. Will have to go elsewhere and import it as it's a title I have wanted for a very long time. Did Nintendo package the headphones with the US/Canadian release like they did in Japan?

Angry the Clown Posted January 26, 2006 Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 Turns out the game is UK bound with a date set for the 21st fo April. Fair while away, but I think I can hold out until then (as there are a few DS games to import between now and its release). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
