    I wonder if the ball is worth $44 more, from the APP15 discount of the cartridge only version? Hm, decisions, decisions!

    • Owgasm on 12/11/2018 - 10:52

      Reviews from pax say decent addition

    • ozchobie on 12/11/2018 - 10:53

      The only advantage I see is to get the free mew. Otherwise, it'll be tiring to use the ball everytime you're catching a Pokémon.

      • Scootex on 12/11/2018 - 11:28

        So in order to catch em all, i need the ball?

        • mr_me450 on 12/11/2018 - 12:08

          No, there will likely be an event to get Mew later, or you can just trade with someone else.

      The ball can work with the mobile game like a Pokemon Go plus.

      Apparently you can also transfer a Kanto region Pokemon in it as well and walk around with it, presumably for candy?

      That said, neither of those features are very enticing.

    • Wool on 12/11/2018 - 13:00

      What's the APP15 discount? Is it still valid?

  • kerodean on 12/11/2018 - 10:56

    Damn I just cancelled my Amazon preorder and ordered from Gamesmen. Because they're located in NSW and I assume will have quicker shipping to me on the Central Coast.

    Hows Amazons pre-order shipping speed? I assumed the warehouse was in Melbourne thus may not be as quick.

    • mobbahobba on 12/11/2018 - 10:58

      It's really luck whether or not you get it on release day or not. I live in sydney and one time I got my pre-order a day early, the other time a day late. If you really want to play it on the release date then buy from a local store. If you can wait until the following Monday then order from Amazon.

      • wamo on 12/11/2018 - 11:40

        I order all my games on Amazon and if it says expedited delivery on the description you will get it before or on release day. I have ordered about 6 games now and have always received the games on release date or before.

        I pre-ordered a game on Amazon AU once. And had to cancel the order 2 weeks after the release.

    • trustnoone on 12/11/2018 - 11:10

      I think it depends, I preordered a switch game and it came 1.7 weeks later (took about 1.5 weeks for Amazon to ship it out and only 32 hours to arrive to me). I wonder if this is because I chose slow shipping and don't have prime? Or maybe they ran out? As usually they're much faster then that for normal shipping? Gamesmen has arrived to me on release day, so definitely much faster, if you're hoping to get it before a weekend I personally would pay a little extra for Gamesmen and not have to deal with the sadness of being hyped for a video game to play for the weekend and not get it.

      • kerodean on 12/11/2018 - 11:25

        Yeh, I think I'll stick with Gamesmen for now. Would be nice to save some money but will be nicer to get the game on release day (without having to go to a store).

    • Lions44 on 12/11/2018 - 13:11

      Very good I preordered RDR2 2 days before launch and it still got shipped in time to WA on launch so you should be safe.

  • Jakjakjak on 12/11/2018 - 11:16

    I wonder if it will drop any lower with click frenzy or black friday!

    I'm completely torn with this game. I love Pokemon but do I need to play yellow again Pokemon Go style? I wish some early reviews would come out.

    • ThePriceMatchGuy on 12/11/2018 - 11:26

      Press Start Australia's review will be out mid week! :)

    • cyrax83 on 12/11/2018 - 11:36

      It'll be a game for casuals and flick to catch. If you love Pokemon Go - you'll love this game, if not don't bother wasting your money.

      • ThePriceMatchGuy on 12/11/2018 - 11:50

        I wasn't much of a fan of Pokemon Go. Played at launch due to the hype around me but died pretty quickly.

        This game on the other hand should be a great warm-up for the full release next year.

        • swanny246 on 12/11/2018 - 12:12
          +4

          The game has improved a lot since launch, if you were inclined to take another look at it. There are a lot of active communities as well (as long as you're not in a rural area anyway).

          • ThePriceMatchGuy on 12/11/2018 - 12:31

            @swanny246: I unfortunately live in Darwin, the biggest city in the Northern Territory which is still considered rural to the rest of Australia! haha

      • ldt on 12/11/2018 - 12:35

        I love Pokemon Go and play it daily. Not sure I want to then sit and play it again all evening though?

        • ThePriceMatchGuy on 12/11/2018 - 12:37

          Absolutely agree! I'm a fan of the series so being able to play it on my Switch during commutes and monthly business travel will be nice :)

  • idonotknowwhy on 12/11/2018 - 11:30

    It's this going to be a full Pokemon game, like gold/silver or red/blue were?

    • RichardL on 12/11/2018 - 11:31

      It basically a remake of Pokemon Red/Blue.

      • idonotknowwhy on 12/11/2018 - 11:41

        That's the second best possible answer, I'm buying it now!

              +2

              @idonotknowwhy: Wild battles are replaced by Pokemon being shown in the overworld and you catch them like Pokemon Go, with no battle. Trainer battles are still the same, as are battles with legendary Pokemon. Honestly I think it's going to be a great change. Wild battles were never very compelling.

              • ThePriceMatchGuy on 13/11/2018 - 09:34

                @andehh: Amen. Considering I'll be able to see the Pokemon I'm about to catch before I catch it will be refreshing! No more spending hours looking for my beloved Scyther!

              • idonotknowwhy on 13/11/2018 - 10:45

                @andehh: So only able to level up from trainers? If I've beaten every trainer and want to go back and level up a pidgey from 3 to 60, I'd have to keep fighting the elite four with bait-and-switch?

                I'd mostly me playing on flights with no internet. Does that work for this game?

                • ThePriceMatchGuy on 13/11/2018 - 17:53

                  @idonotknowwhy: Seems like you get LVL up candies from Prof Oak for catching surplus Pokemon. Your entire party also gains exp without the use of exp share.

                • andehh on 14/11/2018 - 14:48

                  @idonotknowwhy: You get EXP for catching Pokemon just like Sun/Moon.

                  Online features are pretty barebones so you're 100% fine to play it without internet.

    Amazon Pre-order Price Guarantee, means I'll only be paying $79 from this deal

    • mattman on 12/11/2018 - 11:45

      Likewise :) Order has been updated with $99 price already and still showing $20 coupon applied. I think they are shipping after launch but can't complain at all for that price.

      • RichardL on 12/11/2018 - 11:47

        If you have Amazon Prime, it should have expedited delivery, which should ship out Nov 14.

  • HolyFosh on 12/11/2018 - 11:48

    Hmm. I ordered the regular edition for 59 w/ 10 of Credit from the Prime Day deals + my Cash Rewards Sign up.

    40 for the controller is pretty good, but I'm not sure if the hassle is worth it.

    Since I think I'd need to contact Amazon Support to cancel the order, get my credit back and then repurchase with CR…

  • thord on 12/11/2018 - 12:15

    I'd wait for this game to be out a couple weeks and for real impressions to come through. From what I've seen it does not look very good. The pokemon go influence is pretty terrible

    • Zythyx on 12/11/2018 - 12:48

      Yeah, the recent leaks have been a little bit disheartening.

      • idonotknowwhy on 14/11/2018 - 20:10

        Just gave it a try, I'll be giving it a miss.

        I'm up to Viridian City and already have 3 bellsprouts and 2 pidgeys I don't want.
        The anime sequences take way too long as well.

        i like how I can play as a black guy in this one though. Try before you buy imo.

    • HotPotRod on 12/11/2018 - 19:34

      Just make a new account for free prime trial and also it’ll be $71.1 as cashback doesn’t include 10% gst so 99-20=79, (79/1.1) x0.11 = 7.9(cashback amount) and therefore 79-7.9= 71.1 (or shortcut 79x0.9=71.1)

          Mine was posted yesterday at 4.30PM (Scheduled for delivery Monday). I had a different order sent from Amazon yesterday at 8.30am (scheduled for delivery today). Pre-order was placed on the 7 Nov. However, I did edit the order several days ago and change the payment method to gift card, and modify order to request gift wrap. After this change the order delivery schedule changed to Tuesday. Once this happened I removed the gift wrap from the order (several days ago) but it still seems to have effected the order within the queue. You live and learn!

    Preordered in October without Amazon Prime. My game was posted on Friday afternoon and received today in Perth.

    Fairly happy with that given Australia Post was involved. They must have an agreement with Amazon because no packages from the eastern states ever arrive so quickly!
