Did everyone who preordered in person get their TEs from Gamestop?

Yeah, I’ve already posted in the “SF IV stick thread”… But I guess I’ll post here too.

I got my 360 TE from GS today. pre-ordered on Dec. 12 2008 at a San Antonio location on IH 410 @ San Pedro. I was the only person at that store with a pre-order, and they did not get any extra.

The Stick is in flawless shape and works as it should. I am Happy :smile:

got mine in the 13th of feb.

finally got mine in today. fantastic stick. definitely worth the wait.

My PS3 came in yesterday, my 360 today, of course I moved the first of this month to a new town 60+ miles away and now have to wait for the sticks to be cross shipped via Gamestop store transfer via UPS, now they are talking like Tuesday next week b4 they show up at store by my new crib FAWK!!!

Atleast you know you have them for sure… I’m still waiting here in Canada… still nothing for any of us!

finally got mine today.

well got a called from my GS and said they overnight it today so hopefully it here tomarrow on payday.

Yah living in canada doesn’t pay off when the wait is THIS long! I’m hearing mid march for us…but the EB ppl keep saying theres no guarantee. It hurts so much.

Got mine yesterday in California. Ordered in mid Jan. It’s nice…

Got the call last night, picking up later today.

If anyone hears about the TE sticks showing up in Gamestops/EB’s or any other stores in the Chicago or Chicagoland area please hit a brother a PM and or post in thread.

there suppose to get it this week but still not yet… anyone in the LA area suffering from this or am i just unlucky

got mines today for the 360! it is so OMFG lol as a hori ex2 stick as my first stick and jumping up to the TE stick i was WOW! while i was picking up my TE stick also picked up the 360 fightpad with ryu on it. it was the last one. the ryu one goes for $100 on ebay easy :slight_smile:

the employees at my gs was really cool they would send an email out everytime i call lol

It sounds like Madcatz is sending shipments out this week, do you think sombody like me who hasn’t pre-ordered will have a chance in hell of picking one of these up?

It looks like just pre-orders at this time. My gs only got one in, and it was for my pre-order. But I would call around to see what stores actually took pre-orders. The initial shipment that went out the week before the sf4 launch had extras at some stores according to reports on here. But the problem with this might be that if your area isn’t a large enough market chances are you will be waiting. I read somewhere that mc stated anyone that wants one will get one, but will have a wait.

my gamestop sucks… i’ve been hearing different excuses from different employees telling me that it sold out (360 that is), that it hasn’t arrived yet… they called me and i didnt pick it up…

2 employees told me just to keep on calling them everyday and i’ve been calling since the game was released.

should i just get my refund now or wait a couple weeks more? cause they have told me that the ps3 sticks have not arrived yet…

The same thing has happened to me except I ordered a SE stick and it’s still nowhere to be found. (360)

you guys have to be patient i barely got my t.e. stick yesterday and the manufacturing number was like 4,738 so obviously they built more than 3000 sticks

I actually got really lucky today. Walked into a GameStop, and feeling a bit cocky, I asked if they had the TE stick. They didn’t, but the guy was cool enough to check the district for me on the PC. Turned out 7 other GameStops had sticks, which was shocking to us both.

All 7 gave us the same response, though: “Oh… Haha… That’s on hold for ME! I just haven’t paid for it yet, so it’s still in the computer…”

Kind of lame.

Well, the 7th GS threw us a surprise: “I was holding it for myself… But screw it, do you want it?” Of course, I did. So they held it for me until I got there. About 30 minutes later I brought home a TE stick for 360. :rofl:

I should note, I never pre-ordered it. :looney:
