Original Story:
Earlier today, a number of people received an email from Amazon indicating that their Mighty No. 9 special edition had been canceled. The email suggests that the orders were canceled “due to lack of availability,” but fans shouldn’t give up hope yet.
“We are in communication with Amazon,” a Deep Silver representative told us by phone. “We’re working to determine the specifics of the situation and will update as soon as we have more information.”
The publisher assures us that the special edition is still planned (this isn’t going to be a situation like the last-minute cancelation of the Batman: Arkham Knight Batmobile edition). Other retailers are not impacted and this is an “isolated incident.” Furthermore, Amazon has not canceled all of the pre-orders, though many are effected.
We’ll update as soon as we have more information from Deep Silver, which is publishing the game for Comcept. For more on Mighty No. 9, check out our E3 2015 coverage.
Our Take
Fingers are crossed for those impacted that this is a fluke and there are enough units to cover all the pre-orders.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
