AUSSIE got the physical copy!!!
It seems some Aussie stores already start selling in-store(not sure if they actually have the permission to). SE release shipments to Europe and Aus early specifically for pre-orders deliveries is what I understand...

It is also a good time to go dark/low profile on social media for the next 9 days. Instead of afraid being spoiled, the next worse thing is kept seeing people constantly whining about not getting it early....:s22:

They definitely have permission because there’s a Kotaku article that mentioned the same thing. Just don’t know how come it’s so different from other regions. Aus is usually with APAC

I think Australia market is very big, and shipping to the different states and some of the more ulu places will probably take alot of time. I never realised this, but Australia is almost as big as the whole europe.

I just feel this is a bad boohoo by SE.
They wanted to please the people affected by the potential shipment delay(minority) but end up affecting the majority.
Somemore using reason of covid19 which the whole world is affected.
Seriously, USA shoudl have been under early release.

The best way for them is to push for this weekend release.

I still haven't order yet. I was planning to order digital deluxe. But if the physical copies are out before 10th. Then what is the point?
I also ordered first class edition from USA which I don't care if that is delayed as it is for collecting.

Yes they’re big in terms of land space. Just not sure what made them stagger so differently.

If you don't really feel like buying a PS4, can wait for the PC version(no official confirmation but very likely) that is at least a year away.

Wow like that 10 Apr still can collect or not :(
I highly doubt cos all businesses will close. Game business confirm not under essential businesses. I will be cancelling my preorder and order online.

Jialat man. I really don’t want digital because I don’t like the fact that it’s tied to the account.

This is from GameXtreme FB post...

[NOTICE]
By now most of us have heard from the earlier announcement by the government about the closure of non-essential businesses by next Tuesday. We will have to assess and monitor the situation and update you all further later when more exact info is known.

As of now, our shops are expected to operate as per normal till Monday. Expecting more people will be coming to get their gaming stuffs before the closure. Our staff will try their best to service and we seek your cooperation and understanding in maintaining order and social distancing measures.

We will be limiting our online shopping platforms and will fulfill as best as we can. This may result in some orders not be able to fulfill and we apologize in advance for that.

We know that the upcoming Final Fantasy 7 Remake launch will be affected by this. We will be updating later on any actions to be taken after getting more info and decision with the suppliers.

Replies will be slow to online or hotline if the shop is busy, our priority is to service customers who are in the shopfront. Everyone stay safe in the heartlands~!

The next few days all the gaming shops will be probably working with SE to see how they distribute the games

Most people want the physical version is because of the boxart and all. When it’s the same price, having the physical copy somehow always makes more sense.

Download the games directly from PS store? :s11:

Few gig only.

If they can get the stock on hand, I'm sure they can find a way to fulfill the pre-orders. Special locations, kiosks or partially open the outlets strictly for collection purposes.
I don't think that is gravely breaking the regulations, imho.
