So, it seems pretty much impossible to get this in NZ.
There are a few ppl who are interested in getting it, but are put off by the easy unavailability.
I'm considering doing an order through EB games AU, getting it shipped to someone over there (they don't ship internationally), and then getting it re-shipped over here. And then out to you all.
So what I'm after here is interest.
I know Karizzma is keen, I want to know how many others would be willing to do this. I'd probably want money up front, but it'll be a very reasonable price. Probably so reasonably I'll lose money through all the shipping, but so be it.
Lenny? Mason? Graeme (once you have an xbox you'll be wanting this riiiight)? others?
This is a really good game, and is going to be supported pretty well in the future (BBCS2 has just come out in the JP arcades, but a patch for console is anticipated in our Autumn and should be free!). Plus the more of us with it, the more online opponents there are - and I'm sure we'll all want to play in ranbats/tourneys that get put on :)
Very keen for this.
I'll get back to you Alan. I might be picking a copy up tomorrow.

True? Where from?
On Trademe. Picking it up today, so I'll be on tomorrow night as I am out with friends tonight. $89 for the collectors edition.
I'm not keen on getting stuff couriered to my new address, as everything I have so far has involved a ton of bullshit to actually get it into my hands.
Fark, I want the CE now :(
why impossible?

in stock now?
I'd be keen depending on the price. Or else I don't really mind ordering the mightyape one and waiting a couple weeks. Cause yeah still no platina :(
Also kinda poor atm, may even wait til after christmas.
lol, that hasn't even been on their website before. Good looking out though!

I pick it up tonight. If you want I won't open it and you can swap me for a regular version and 20 bucks. I don't really care about the extra crap.
sounds like a deal, I have no probs you opening it though.
The Fan edition is cool. Well, for me anyway.
just had a look at EB games au, it's like $64 a copy. Add proper international shopping it shouldn't be any more than $75 bucks NZ a piece. Probably more like 70 depending on the numbers. Bit low on cash atm but should be good for it :o
Well thats 2

67 dollars NZ with free shipping. Will take a week to get here, but I'm away till the 5th once xmas hits anyway and probably cheaper after flux orders it from AU then sends it to AKL.
But apparently CDwow is pretty shit?
I've heard lots of bad things about CDwow. People order stuff and they don't get it til 1-2 months later, in which time they already cancel and it still arrives for free. I guess that can kinda be a plus.
Ya I have just heard too many bad stories about that place to give them a go.
Ah true, flag it then. F mightyape for only having the collectors edition.
OK so that's 3 I guess... I'll try to get something sorted out.
i'm keen for 1 if not to late
Sent you a PM Alan 8)
Bro mighty ape is shit. First games is shit. They gave me the fucken USA SSF4 no warning. CDwow is shit they fucked up my T6 case. Dont care that it's broken but i know you's would get fucked off.
All them shit. But BB:CS is fucking cool. That shit is bangin. You niggas need to cop that ish.
I'm keen also flux if it ain't too late. Thats if my course-related costs goes in tomorrow hohoho.
When will you need a confirmation by?

Have I ever told you, that I 'lol' irl, at almost everything you write?
Anything happening here?
buy it on ps3 kung
From where?
from EB.
it was $70 last i saw.
Mightyape have 1 bbcs limited ed available at $90 if anyone is interested. Not a bad deal.

Ignore the haters, it's a good game.
Oh, also I just was told about zavvi:
BB:CS ltd ed for 18gbp = $36NZD (+ some shipping).
Normal ed for 16gbp = $33
Sounds like a pretty good option if people are still interested, I think shipping might take a couple of weeks though.
Do they do international shipping?
Doesn't matter if they do or not, I got lots of friends/family in the UK so I'll get them to post it over.
hard to say no to $36NZD.
Assume nothing went ahead with that Australian order?
Gimme a rough idea of how much shipping will be. If it all works out less than or around $60 put me down for it straight away please.
looks like they do international shipping, looks like its less than 3 pounds, so probably maximum 6 bucks. total = $42 bucks? My CC is maxed at the moment so I can't do a bulk order until my pay comes through (on monthly pay cycle now, arrrrrr).
[edit] if people are happy to wait till next week, I'll order up to 5 copies. karizzma/mason/redtie/flash get first dibs since they posted here already, pick it up from ranbats when I get it or add $5 bucks postage in NZ. Confirm your order by PM[/edit].
haven't heard any confirmation from anyone except mason. Mason, probably best if you order it yourself. I don't have time for the game with marvel so close!
Yeah you're right about that actually. I'm hard out waiting for marvel now so don't think I will have much time to play this.
Also realised my laptop runs the arcade BBCS perfectly fine so I can somewhat practice on that. And especially since Platinum isn't out yet.
