Question about NISA online store and pre-ordered grouped shipment items.


Hey I was wondering something:

Let's say I want to Pre-Order Dragoneer's Aria (with the Bonus Artbook) and pre-order Growlanser: Heritage of War. Will the items be grouped as few shipments as possible or will they be sent as they become available?

If they will be grouped as few shipments as possible, will I still get the Bonus that comes with Dragoneer's Aria for pre-ordering?

 Knowing that even though I will pre-order Dragoneer's Aria now, but the fact that they won't ship until Growlanser: Heritage of War becomes available (in September), that will risk me not to receive my copy of Dragoneer's Aria shipped with it's original pre-order bonus!

 Because by the time they will ship my order, Dragoneer's Aria would have been released a month ago and the Artbook pre-order bonus might not be offered anymore by then, right?

The reason I am asking is because I want to save on shipping (let's say I want, Dragoneer's Aria then Growlanser: Heritage of War and then Soul Nomad) that will make like 15-20$ of shipping just to get those 3 from the NISA online store at different intervals.

I'd rather have them sent in a grouped shipment and pay the minimum of shipping costs, but I am also afraid by doing that I will miss on getting the pre-order bonuses.

Re: Question about NISA online store and pre-ordered grouped shipment items.


In my experience, Rosenqueen will group everthing in one order into the same shipment. Everthing is shipped when the last item arrives/comes out.

Example: I purchased Atelier Iris 2 when I preordered Aedis Eclipse. AI2 was out at the time of order and still shipped with Aedis Eclipse.

As for the preorder bonus, I would not worry too much. NISA has not cut off preorder bonuses (based on date) as long as the store has them in stock. They have also been making plenty of the bonuses so even if, for the sake of arguement, they didn't set yours aside, there should still be some available.

One * though, when alternate preorder bonuses are offered (like Grim Grimoire) then you may not be able to delay the purchase as long and still have your preorder package of choice available.

You won't miss out if you order Dragoneer's Aria and Growlanser together. I ordered Atelier Iris 3 and Grim Grimoire together and it wasn't shipped until the latter came out (Atelier was released a month before). Even though I got Atelier Iris a month later, I still got the pre-order bonus.

Re: Question about NISA online store and pre-ordered grouped shipment items.


Thanks guys. I'll do this when I will order Growlanser V and Soul Nomad.

But I had a question, I already ordered Dragoneer's Aria with gamestop, but until now it says:

premium, Dragoneers Aria art book INET Back Ordered

And it has been like this since like 10 days ago, does that mean they won't ship my order with the Dragoneer's Aria artbook?

Re: Question about NISA online store and pre-ordered grouped shipment items.


I preordered Dragoneer's Aria with the bonus art book from Gamestop as well. It came in today at my home address, but with no art book!?! Gamestop's site still lists Dragoneer's Aria with bonus as in stock, but now has an entry for the game without the bonus. I ordered the game like a week ago, so I know that they didn't run out of the art books that quickly. Are they going to ship the book separately or did Gamestop just gyp me out of my preorder bonus? I'm beginning to think it's the latter as when I preordered Atelier Iris 3 from Gamestop's site, the art book and game shipped together. If so I'm going to be pissed as the bonus was the sole reason I ordered it online. I would much rather buy one at the store and save on shipping and handling if I can.

So does anyone know? Did anyone order from Gamestop's site and get their game in today with or without the art book?

EDIT: Never mind, I checked into it and found out that they are shipping it separately and that it should arrive on Tuesday.
