Sweetness! On times for scheduled delivery tomorrow. What sucks is I got stuff from UPS yesterday and today as well, but neither were my component cables, although yesterday was my $15 2GB SD card from buy.com.

try calling Nintendo up, maybe they made a mistake. Who knows maybe they'll give u a gift for the mistake.

Ah, the clarity (and the more apparent jaggies) of Zelda...it's...beautiful. 480p FTW.

Mine finally "shipped" earlier "today", but the tracking option still doesn't appear in UPS's system.

GROWL! H8chu, Ninty.

Keep in mind Nintendo's on the West Coast, so their stuff leaves the warehouse a little after 7:00pm Pacific.

Mine shipped on the 28th, and I got them the next day. Still no freaking Wii though...

Yeah, mine says shipped, but UPS still doesn't seem to be tracking the order yet. What gives?

Chode2234 · « **Reply #37 on:** December 02, 2006, 07:23:19 AM »

Ordered mine on 11/27. They shipped and should be here on the 4th.

NeoThunder · « **Reply #38 on:** December 02, 2006, 12:28:31 PM »

OK....I ordered mine on the 30th, and today on the 2nd, Nintendo's site says they have shipped but UPS doesn't reconize the number. so maybe come monday they will be first out the door, if i'm lucky i'll get them tuesday, but probley wednesday.

Update: Okay so I ordered on the 19th. Checked today the 2nd. (But probably was updated on the 1st) Doesn't say processing, it says "Shipped"... it says it WAS shipped on the 4th

. Express shipping 3-5 days, hopefully before next weekend!

Yah I wish I could go pick it up. It'd probably be like a 30 minute drive for me!

Hahahah ShyGuy alt

NeoThunder · « **Reply #42 on:** December 03, 2006, 08:31:32 AM »

my cables are "in transit" at this moment.....question, does UPS move packages on a sunday, I got 2nd day air and it was shiped saturday......does that mean i'll have my cables monday?

ryancoke · « **Reply #43 on:** December 04, 2006, 03:11:22 AM »

yay! Mine finally says "prepping order". Although I've seen some orders take a week to prep

I hope it comes soon. Every time I play Zelda with the composite cable I die just a little bit...

ryancoke · « **Reply #44 on:** December 05, 2006, 05:41:00 AM »

Wow, my cables shipped and are at Vancouver right now! That's pretty close to me (one province over). Hopefully i'll have them before friday! I'm 10 hours into Zelda now and I'm tempted to restart when I get the componant cables.

Yah Monday it said in Richmond, BC sorting plant. At 7:56pm. At 7:07am this morning "out for delivery"... but didn't get! Maybe Wednesday I guess!

Update: Finally got them, And I will say they are worth the money and wait. Yes, you do notice more jaggies, but it also depends how close you sit they will be noticeable (or TV size), and the amount of clarity and detail that is improved is worth the jaggies. I'd rather have crisp moving gameplay that fuzzy ghost-like gameplay!

BranDonk Kong · « **Reply #47 on:** December 06, 2006, 04:46:58 PM »

New games will probably lack the jaggies that launch games tend to have. Anti-aliasing is your friend.

Ceric · « **Reply #48 on:** December 06, 2006, 06:26:42 PM »

Yeah. For me it was the difference of seeing that yes indeed Link actually had a face.
