I was gonna ask my Daddy to buy it for me since it's his day off and he could've nabbed it on his way to my house, but i slept in and i would've felt guilty to ask him to make a trip just for the sake of my own entertainment… Sooo…
Here i am, one day later, and hoping that it won't end with me wondering if everybody is conspiring against me.
I've actually already checked EB Games' website! it seems that within the area near my home, all of the stores have it in stock! Honestly, i would reserve one if i knew how. Maybe i'll get lucky this time! who knows?
'Cuz what i distinctly remember is that the last time i was truly aching with every part of my soul for a new game, was Fire Emblem Awakening. And wouldn't you know it? We had to run to like, six different locations, they were ALL sold out, until FINALLY i came across one in Future Shop!
I was like, 'oh, em, GEE.'
i don't want that happening again.
Frankly, although it'll make me sound like a spoiled, impatient, selfish little brat, i don't think i'd be able to stand it if i don't get it TODAY.
and yes, i'll do that again, this time stomping my foot, pouting, crossing my arms, and yelling, "TODAY!"
honestly, though, my parents (my mom actually) has been nothing but kind to me in this matter. (it's usually Daddy who's against me buying anything new, especially new electronics. he doesn't mind shoes or clothes or stuff… and i'd be grateful for that! but who needs more than 2 pairs of pants…? Especially since i wear uniform at school…anyway, i say go frugal on the clothes, and splurge on the electronics. that makes more sense, right? oh! and food! you can always splurge on food. and gymnastics.)
Anyway, my mom even offered to take me searchin' for my own copy once she gets off from work, even though she's apprehensive about letting me get one, because let's face it - i give into temptation pretty easily.
meaning, my eyes'll probably be poppin' outta my head the second i get it and i won't be putting it down for hours on end for weeks after.
(but i promise, i swear! i won't do that this time!)
well, anyway, this is just a quick update, and it probably makes me sound like a whiny, snot-nosed kid, but hey, i've been waiting forever for this game to be translated and brought to the Americas!
Also, i'm sorry for not posting a gymnastics post on Tuesday, i was sick, so i didn't go (not even to school!)
So… yeah.
If i get it, i'll try to post an entry tonight, giving my initial impressions of the game.
Honestly, though, i hope it doesn't end up like "4 Heroes of Light," in which the enemies level up WITH you.
THAT really threw me for a loop.
See, i LOVE overlevelling, and sometimes to massive degrees, so… yeah. that game didn't end too well for me. (and come on, one save slot? REALLY??)
okay.
i think i've spoken enough for today.
i'm honestly thinking that i sound like i am ranting to a diary - and that's not how blog entries are supposed to go, are they? Or maybe they are…
Anyway, i know that you all probably will never leave comments for me anyway (rolls eyes)
But i'll ask again in case some kind soul stumbles upon my humble little blog…
Leave comments! Tell me what games you want me to try! <3
…Although for the matter, i don't own any big consoles. So i can't play those games, although i do sorely want to. I watch playthroughs for those instead, since that's the next best thing. (pout)
anyway i'm off.
i just heard that a relative is visiting and stuff, so…
I'd better post this and eat my breakfast and be on my way.
Toodles! XD
~Ren~
EDIT: okay, so i didn't get it, it was sold out anywhere i tried to look (strangely, although the website said they were all in stock…)
needless to say, it was a huge disappointment for me, and i'm ashamed to say that yes, i did pout, and sulk, and maybe even cried a little, all while my dad stared at me with an "are you insane?" look on his face, cuz "it's just a game!"
And yeah, i know. it is. can't help the disappointment though. been waiting forever. (deep sigh) honestly, of all the locations… couldn't they just like… leave one copy? :((((
you'll get your review soon, readers. i promise that. if i can't get it by tomorrow i'll see if it's available on the eshop. i hate downloading stuff but i'll do it.
EDIT: still can't get it. it's like, sold out everywhere.
It's illogical and stupid of me, but i can't help sulking about it. of course, which makes me feel bad, since daddy did everything he could for me, but sometimes maybe it's like, "the law of the universe" or something like that.
and yeah, i know, i'm probably gonna get a lot of disbelieving stares, like, 'what's the big deal about? it's a game, for goodness sake.' and yeah i guess it is. but i've been wanting it since it came out in JAPAN. that's a LONG time ago.
i'm probably not the only one anyway. so kudos to those that can rush on in and nab it the second it comes out. i respect that. but it doesn't make it any easier for me. (and yes, this probably makes me sound self centered, and no, i don't care)
EDIT: had a mini meltdown last night and finally decided that i'd order it online. (I actually wanted to drive to a remote location about 2 hours away since it'd actually be faster that way, but my parents wouldn't let me)
As idiotic as it makes me sound, my mom was ready to pay for express shipping to stop the crocodile tears, but i went with standard anyway, since it's free and the last time i chose it i actually got very, very lucky (three days, believe it or not! I was shocked and ecstatic)
Anyway, i think this'll be the last edit on this post, and i'm sorry if everything i say juxtaposes what i've done before, i don't want to appear bratty since i'm usually not, it's just that this was a super important issue to me (although logically everyone is thinking that i'm insane for regarding this as one of my higher priorities…)
That's about it, then! ciao~!
EDIT: okay, last edit, this time, i PROMISE. firstly, accidently read a spoiler… (bleach! i need bleach for my brain!! i want to forget this!!!) and secondly, i'll be prepared for when (if?) Bravely Second comes to North America. So yes, i'll be keeping an eye on the news and pre-order the second i can. no more tears, no more tantrums. i swear.
but for just a moment, i had to laugh at myself. I haven't even gotten Bravely Default yet, and i'm already waiting for its sequel? not to mention, when i tracked my order this morning and it said "closed" (meaning it is shipped) i sprang to my feet and did a little victory jig.
now, i only hope for it to get here in ten days or less. preferably less. preferably by thursday. then i can play on friday. and saturday. and half of sunday. >:3
EDIT: order was placed on Sunday night (not a business day). order was processed Monday afternoon. arrived Tuesday morning. It was standard shipping. I'M SO EXCITED!! <3<3<3<3<3<3
