As somebody else indicated, did you use a credit card to purchase it? My Discover card automatically doubles all manufacturer warranties (adding up to a year), and you just have to go through them and they will resolve it for you.

I used cash to preorder and then my card to pay it off. Does it still cover it like that?

I would certainly contact your credit card company (they probably have an easy online chat) to find out. There is no guarantees, obviously, but it is definitely worth a try, as it would result in quite a bit of savings for you.
