Okay, this might seem like a weird question, but has anyone in Canada found out whether Best Buy's pre-order bonus Nuka Cola bottle opener will be available here? I called the two stores closest to me today and in both cases I ended up talking to slackjaws who had to concentrate so hard on remembering to breathe that they were completely unable to answer my question.

Well, I didn't know I could get a cool Nuka Cola bottle for it so now you've got my attention and I may go pre-order it at best buy since I'm in the states, but I'll look something up in a minute.

Is it just a pre-order bonus for the regular edition or special edition? Those special editions are expensive and usually for things that aren't so special.

Nuke Cola Bottle opener?! All I got from Gamestop was a poster and a music cd! Guess it's too late to turn back now..

I'm sorry though, that I can't answer your question.

No it isn't too late lol, cancel it - it's that easy.

I canceled a pre-order the day before the game came once, they had no problem with it.

You new worlders are lucky. At least you get SOMETHING. All I get over here is the freaking normal and special edition. I want the edition BEYOND that. It has a freaking pipboy!

I'd feel impolite.. I'll just suck it up. I actually don't buy drinks that come in bottles anyway.. *sigh*

I preordered waaaay early.. But I'm sure I'm not special and this applies to everyone.

I received a game case that looked like I was holding Fallout3 right there. Inside the case is a poster of a little less than average size and a CD in a neat sleeve that makes it look like an old timey record. The CD has.. ah I need to get unlazy and actually look.. It has 5 tops tracks from the game.

i'm going to say no, us up here in the great white north are being screwed again by bestbuy and their ilk

we aren't even getting the survival edition from amazon, it's blocked from shipping here on the .com site and not even offered on the .ca version

Here I was thinking that someone had looted a gamestop for their pre-order. What is this world coming to?

Why cancel your other pre-order? I've got a "real" pre-order in at EB so I can score the bonus preview DVD with the soundtrack tunes on it, but I want to lay down my five bucks at Best Buy for another pre-order (that I'll never use) so I can get the bottle opener. Hell, as far as that goes I'd be happy to take the bottle opener and give the pre-order (it's apparently a coupon for five bucks off the purchase price, rather than a more conventional pre-order) to someone else.
