EU3 - who's carrying it in Canada?

[unmerged(6777)]

Flori (actually, Susana I think) is looking into it. It was certainly not their intention that Canada (or any country) not have the opportunity to get the game in stores -- after all, I would imagine that retailers are the greatest source of new customers to expand their sales base.

I had a similar EB experience, I went in to ask if they would be carrying it and the kid behind the counter couldn't find it in his computer. Not a big deal for me since I preordered from Paradox, but I have been talking it up to some friends and they were wondering how much it would cost at the store.

I have been doing some resarch and....

I have found copies of EU3 (not CE) in Buffalo NY and in Plattsburg, NY at BESTBUY

I know it is a bit of a drive for those in Toronto for Buffalo but was just wondering

And for those of you in the Montreal Area Plattsburg is not that bad either.

Just wanted to help if i can

Looked around a few stores in downtown Toronto today, nothing.
I think I'll have to go find the nearest Target store across the border, Gamersgate is fine and all but I want that gold hat

 

[crazy canuck]

another day without my copy.

In future I will likely just get it from Gamersgate. I really wanted to see the hardcopy manual and all the bells and whistles that came with the CE though.

Maybe in future a CE equivalent can be ordered where you download the game immediately and all the physical stuff gets sent out.

Sorry if that has already been suggested.

Similar case with me...EB has no clue what's going on with it, also tried future shop, and staples (heh why not)...just went and bought the game from gamersgate and the bloody download doesn't work...only plus side is that i have the manual to read through

Got my pre-ordered CE today in Edmonton, for any of you who are still waiting in Canada, it should be hitting your mailbox soon.

Mine came today too, in Toronto.

Of course with an FX 5200 there isn't the slightest point in me trying to load it until I upgrade my computer sometime in the next year or so.

At least I have a gold hat though.

Called around to the EB Games stores in Toronto... and not one of them had it even listed in their system... same with Best Buy and Futute Shop...

Almost tempted to order if from overseas, but knowing Canada Post, would arrive about the same time that Crusader Kings 2 is due to ship...

Is there anyone at Paradox marketing looking into getting the game on Canadian shelves? Or did their previous titles do so poorly in Canada that they just decided to forgo the Canuck market?

It's being looked into. Paradox definitely intended that their North American distributor would be marketing the game in Canada.

I Need to know!!!

When can I buy Europa Universalis III in canadian stores without using the internet. I live in Calgary and everywhere I've called they dont have it yet, and they dont know when its coming in, or if it is even coming at all.

if anyone konws please let me know.

 

[Belissarius]

So far there has not been a sighting confirmed or otherwise of the game beeing in any store in Canada. In fact there isnt even a canadian based internet store that has the game.All of the web based stores that are selling it are US and if you want the collector's edition so far only paradox is selling that via the web(This will change once other nation have their release dates).

none of the retailers in calgary have a clue about the game or when its coming, if at all. (EB, futureshop, the source by circuit city, bestbuy, walmart...........) walmart had a guy who did'nt even speak english, in the electronics department!!! what the f@*# can he do if he does'nt understand me?

If you live in Vancouver, the Burlington, WA store has it - only 80 miles...

If I was in Vancouver right now, and not in the middle of this self-imposed asinine exile to Toronto, I would be there already...
