Amazon are bad at getting pre-orders to you on time.
Expect it Monday.
Expect the email saying it's dispatched thursday or friday.

Yeah the black pro controller I pre-ordered from them still hasn't shipped. When I got the email from them saying it would be after Christmas before it shipped, I went to Gamestop and bought a white one. Didn't cancel the black pre-order though.. figure I'll just wait it out.

The plus side is amazon are usually a lot cheaper than retailers, especially here.
I'd have saved 40 euro if I wanted to wait. But I had some intricate plan which saved me just as much or more in my local gamestop.

I have said this a few times (i work for amazon lol) up until monday we only had zombiu packs in stock at my The center i work. Anyways yesterday we had lots of deluxe and basic, Amazon have so many basic sets that its unreal. Moving on I can tell you that yesterday they were shipping Wii U's out, lots of them too. Now most of these were probably standard delivery, Today first class and then tomorrow will be prime, next day. Appears that Amazon have this worked out pretty well. Even though i work there, I ordered from Shopto.

I have only ordered a game from Amazon UK for the Wii U, which was COD: Black Ops 2
It was dispatched yesterday with an estimated arrival date of Thursday 29th November 2012

I can never fault Amazon, there service is top notch

I pre ordered from GAME as I was devistated to see them go into administration a few months ago, I have sworn myself to support my local store, after thinking about it A LOT I really can't see them go.

Very good move UnchainedGoku

One_jay, also a great move, not just because i work for them and it pays my bills but i think that the service and prices is really, i usually always use them but shopto for other things sometimes such as the wii U, i just found a deal on shopto that amazon couldn't compete with.
