They already confirmed that the pre order bonus will be available for purchase later!

So, you're talking about the pre-order bonus of getting Ichiban and co.........rather then just the deluxe version content as dlc, right?

If so, I think that's a pretty cool idea because there are times when I've not had a certain interest in a game until after it's release and missed out on a preorder bonus.

By doing it this way, there would still be a benefit of pre-ordering due to getting that content for free........but if you come late to the party you can still get it, albeit pay a charge for it.

Yes, the ichiban stuff. Deluxe content is always purchasable later. Exactly! people pre ordering get it for free and people who get the game later need to pay for it but at least they will still be able to get it. This used to be the norm. I'm glad some companies are coming back to this method.

I love Ryu Ga Gotoku for doing this.
