Posted December 3, 201212 yr So, do you buy new games on the day that it is released? Or do you just wait for a while to buy it? Edited December 3, 201212 yr by Tails
December 3, 201212 yr If the game starts with Kingdom and then Hearts, then yes I do pick them up on day 1. Otherwise I wait for a price drop. cB
December 3, 201212 yr Depends how good the game is. Games like Metal Gear I buy in day one or anything that comes from vALVE, but normally I just chill out until there is some reviews of it and if I know that for example Steam Sales are coming soon.
December 3, 201212 yr I don't wait purposefully, but usually I'll get a game within a week of its release. Sometimes I've bought the game the day of its release (Kingdom Hearts 3D, for example), but I don't always. I don't wait for the price to drop, though, mainly because it never does enough to make much of a difference to me.
December 3, 201212 yr It depends on the game. The last game I got in release date was Dream Drop Distance.
December 3, 201212 yr The only two games I've gotten on the first day of release were Pokemon Conquest and Lollipop Chainsaw. Other than those, I usually wait a few months until a price drop happens (or if I can snag a cheap used copy off of ebay :V)
December 3, 201212 yr If it's supposed to be a really good game, or if it's something I really really want I will pre-order or buy on the first day. If not I'll wait till a good sale and get it 83
December 3, 201212 yr Most time i wait a while but if it is Kingdom Hearts game then I have that game pre-order months before it comes out
December 3, 201212 yr I've only done so with The Legend of Zelda Skyward Sword, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, which ended up coming super late despite pre ordering it, and KH3D. In the future I'd probably only by them on release date if they were KH games or Zelda games.
December 3, 201212 yr its its a game that followes a game that im a fan of then yes like dmc im buying the new one on release date so in basics it depends on the game
December 3, 201212 yr If its Pokemon or Kingdom Hearts, always. For others, it just depends on the game really.
December 3, 201212 yr Author If its Pokemon or Kingdom Hearts, always. For others, it just depends on the game really. What about a Tales Of game?
December 3, 201212 yr What about a Tales Of game? I didn't know about the series until Tales of the Abyss 3DS. I was interested in the game before it came out, but I didn't decide to get it until after it released. Should any come out on a console I own in the future, then I'll definitely pre-order and get them day one.
December 4, 201212 yr I got 358/2 Days the day before it was released. Got Re:coded and KH3D on the day of their release.

December 4, 201212 yr Really? I thought you bought Tales of the Abyss when it came out on PS2 lol. Nope. I wish I had.
So, do you buy new games on the day that it is released? Or do you just wait for a while to buy it?
