The reason why certain stores have had FIFA 17 early is due to a street date break in the UAE which occurred late last week. "Because we were able to procure stock of FIFA 17 on Monday itself, we should be out of the game by the end of today." "Our phones have been ringing all morning," a proprietor of an independent video game store tells us. (Also see: FIFA 17 Street Date Broken in the UAE India Release Soon )
Nonetheless, consumer disappointment at Amazon India over yet another delay bodes well for smaller stores. You'd think that after announcing pre-orders early, Amazon India would be competitive enough to ensure a day and date release. Delays on top tier titles like FIFA 17 don't help matters either. Although EA has traditionally been one of the stronger publishers in the region, some of its moves of late such as ridiculous pricing on Battlefield 1 and a knee-jerk price drop in response to Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare put things in poor light. Sources close to the e-commerce giant allege all is not well between EA and Amazon. (Also see: FIFA 17 Up for Pre-Order in India: Price, Release Date, and More )
