henkieee6 Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Hi my name is Henk and I have been following this game for at least 4 months now. I love it and I really want(ed) to have the boxed version. So as soon as I got out of the school on april 7th I ran into our local asking for DCS: Black Shark: Nothing, and acording to the emplyees nothing called DCS: Black Shark will be released there (at least not this month) So I checked all the other stores in town but none of them seem to have DCS: Black Shark... A bit dissapointed I got home and checked www.bol.com (the dutch version of amazon.com) But also no Black Shark there...:doh: I have been thinking about buying it on amazon.com but I'd rather not because I think I will have to pay a lot of extra money for shipping and importing it into holland. So my question is: Does anyone no IF DCS: Black Shark will be released in holland at all and if it is, when and where ? And if it's not: can I buy the game from amazon.com without paying too much extra money? :helpsmilie: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EtherealN Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=669002&postcount=38 In Holland, Favour BV is shipping to shops this week. So it should be out there somewhere. I know Game here in sweden has it on the front page of their website, so if you have that chain over there as well, check them out.

Zembla Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Failing that, http://www.simw.com, admittedly, it's in Brussels Belgium, but I'm sure the shipping wouldn't be much higher for them for shipping to Holland. It ain't exactly that far :) -Z [sigpic][/sigpic] I aaaaaam ... a banana! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guzmann Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Indeed! SimWare Simulations (www.simw.com) is the way to go!

henkieee6 Posted April 8, 2009 Author Share Posted April 8, 2009 :doh: I have looked in all the shops except dynabite. Since they didn't had PC games in there store last time I went. But Tnx very much guys. I am going to get it tomorrow :lol: :pilotfly: Really hope they have it since there site says: Not available Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yskonyn Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Yeah it says out of stock, but that's for the webshop. I've come across other games that said out of stock online, but were in stock in my local dynabyte shop. Be sure to call em first before you go. Otherwise SimWare is your best bet!

Well I am going shopping tomorrow anyway so I can see if they got it. Otherwise I think I will download it on SimWare. Thanks for the tips. BTW Isn't it a bit strange that dynabite is the only store in holland who sell's DCS Black shark ? I mean I've checked intertoys, dixons, bart smit, Saturn. All of them and none of them seems to sell the game... Not that I mind but to me it almost seems if the developers don't want to get any profit out of it :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yskonyn Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 It might not be the devs fault, nor the publisher's. It might be the stores themselves just don't think they would sell enough units to carry it. Dynabyte has a tendency of carrying titles you don't find easily elsewhere, though. ;) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Asus Z390-E, 32GB Crucial Ballistix 2400Mhz, Intel i7 9700K 5.0Ghz, Asus GTX1080 8GB, SoundBlaster AE-5, G15, Streamdeck, DSD Flight, TM Warthog, VirPil BRD, MFG Crosswind CAM5, TrackIR 5, KW-908 Jetseat, Win 10 64-bit ”Pilots do not get paid for what they do daily, but they get paid for what they are capable of doing.

henkieee6 Posted April 9, 2009 Author Share Posted April 9, 2009 Black Shark will be available in Media Markt and Dynabyte stores on Friday Aah that's nice to hear. I got there today and they told me that the developer should have distibuted the games at the beginning of the month (3th of april ofcourse) but they haven't recieved anything yet and the developer hasn't told them anything. So this is nice to hear. Are you shure ? And do you mean this friday? @ guy with difficult name :megalol: Yeah I almost had forgotten how much they now about the things they sell. Much better than media markt for example. The guy at dynabite even knowed DCS: Black shark.

Dusty Rhodes Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 Why not do both and have a soft and hard copy back up? Helps sales and gives the simmer piece of mind in case of hard drive crash they don't have to DL immediately, they can slam in the DVD and off they go.

Helps sales and gives the simmer piece of mind in case of hard drive crash they don't have to DL immediately, they can slam in the DVD and off they go. Wow, that sounds like some serious paranoia! ;) Just kidding. I do agree about the 'supporting the devs' part, though. @Henk; well it all depends on who you're talking to, I guess. But yes, in general, dynabyte seems to make a good impression of knowing about the stuff they sell.

henkieee6 Posted April 10, 2009 Author Share Posted April 10, 2009 (edited) If download is an option, why not download directly from ED? Just curious. :) Because downloading is only a second option. And I heard that simware is a good website :) And I don't want both of em because: 1 I think that's a bit too much XD 2 I can spend that money on another game or a joystick 3 I don't have enough money :D and @ Jim Mack: Still not available according to the website...

henkieee6 Posted April 11, 2009 Author Share Posted April 11, 2009 Sorry for the dubblepost but I just wanted to say that the dynabite site still says: Not available :( Jim Mack: Are you shure your boss told that they were shipping ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yskonyn Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 It seriously sucks bigtime if you're waiting for something you really like. . . I'd press the buy button on the dcs website if I were you.
