This isn’t good. From our faithful reader Ben, it looks like at least some Amazon pre-orders of Super Mario Galaxy are going to see a delay of one whole week.
I pre-ordered Super Mario Galaxy 2 weeks ago from Amazon.com. Today I received this in my inbox:
“We wanted to let you know that there is an unexpected delay with your video game order (Order# ###-#######-#######) you placed on October 25 2007 09:26 PDT. Unfortunately, we are unable to ship the product(s) as soon as we expected and need to provide you with a new estimate of
when they may be delivered:“Super Mario Galaxy” [Video Game]
Estimated arrival date: 11/20/2007We apologise for the inconvenience caused by this delay.”
I canceled my order so I can buy it tonight at a brick&mortar store tonight after work. No pre-order coin for me, I guess.
Ouch. Did anyone else get screwed by an Amazon pre-order of SMG?
