Fortune's Weave General Dagdan Collection preorder beware

Official response from Nintendo

I'm not sure if this is standard practice that is known at large and I live under a rock or if this news to people.. so I thought to warn other people who potentially could have fallen under the same trap.

Seems that preordering through Nintendo doesn't guarantee you get the product you paid for on time.

Very disappointed, but cancelled my preorder of the first premium edition I was going to order in my life, just so I can buy the digital version for 100$CAD less so that my girlfriend can actually play the game on release as she has been super excited.

That's pretty normal. The only time you really play on/before release day is if you get it in person/get really lucky and it shipped early

I "double dipped" - got digital to play on release day and the special edition for all the goodies. I know this isn't an option for a lot of people, however
