I wonder what's going on with the Club Nintendo thing.  The newsletter also emphasized registering.  Maybe free DLC at launch?

Oh snap

Ya I got that email. Pretty freaking sweet.

Also the lack of physical manual saddens me.

Same.  Maybe the free $30 will lessen the blow.

This.

As far as pre-orders, I just pre-ordered 3 of the (best) Disgaea D-2 LE!

Looks like an awesome LE -and- I just love supporting ALL things Disgaea and MOST things NISA  8)

I generally don't pre-order games because it's really not difficult (at least here) to just go out and get the game day 1 if I wanted to. There has never been a case where I've been unable to get a game because I didn't pre-order. However, I did pre-order New Super Luigi U from Amazon because I'm getting it for my fiancee's birthday and I want it delivered here so it can be a surprise.

For me pre-order is about getting deals, not about just getting the game.

I currently have the following pre-ordered, all for 33% off:

Shin Megami Tensei IV (just got shipped)
Dragon's Crown
Pikmin 3
Wonderful 101
Pokemon Y
Sonic Lost World
Wind Waker HD
Super Mario 3D World
Legend Of Zelda Link Between Worlds
Donkey Kong Country Trop Freeze
Disgaea D2
inFamous Second Son
Mario Kart 8
Mirror's Edge reboot
Bayonetta 2
Bravely Default
Super Smash Bros

How'd you get the deals...?  I ordered SMTIV from Newegg when they were having 10 or 15% off, but that's as low as I saw.

I didn't use to preorder and I only do so now if they're having preorder-only bonuses that I want.  There have been too many times I've kicked myself for not checking whether a game I know I'll eventually buy had preorders when it launched.

Examples:
- Junpei's hat for Persona's re-release
- 999 watch

Other examples of things I preordered but definitely would've kicked myself over had I not:
- Ni No Kuni wizard edition
- Zero Escape watch(es)

During E3 Future Shop's online store in Canada had deals where you got 33% off all the games in your order if you pre-ordered more than 3. I always wait around for these deals.

Oh man, so lucky...  That's a great deal and easy, too, considering how many awesome-looking games are coming out.

Hellz yeah - I'm stoked, too!

You can get by w/o the guide (everything will be on the Internet soon enough); I just got it because:

a).  I like collecting guides,

b).  I like ALL-things 'Disgaea', and

c).  This will definitely be the 1st (and possibly the only) hardcover Disgaea strategy guide.

I'm expecting that the game's gonna be fun as hell, though - guide or no guide :)

Well, damn, now I kinda want it.  Hardcover = classy!

Yes indeedy!

Doublejump did great guides for 1-3, then, Prima (I think) did its usual job on the one for 4.
