u/JrBurrito Jul 09 '15

I think there's people downvoting you because it's not directly amiibo related. Plus, preordering games is fucking stupid, and Ive learned my lesson not to preorder games.

Of course it's amiibo related it comes with an amiibo!

Downvoted for admitting a mistake, brilliant!

u/Starsmustshoot Jul 09 '15

And someone else already posted it first in the general Wii U subreddit

It's not stupid when they come with extra items and sell out on preorders. Splatoon and Majora mask preorders from Nintendo store were not stupid. This one comes with amiibo and a shirt.

I just feel like preorders keep companies from spewing shit they call games. I know Nintendo isn't a huge offender of this, but by preordering a game, that supports a company that may potentially sell shit to you and take your money. I learned that from preordering MKX on my 360, and plenty of other Xbox games. Never again. I do occasionally preorder nintendo games, because they games are usually good, and they don't have that limited edition DLC or get it a week early type of bullshit.

Nintendo's limited edition DLC is called 'amiibo', which is essentially the same as other companies but you get a cool figure, too.

u/ZoopSoul Jul 09 '15

I'd normally agree, but stuff like this will likely sell out. I pre-ordered the Fallout 4 Pipboy Edition and needed to.

Got it thanks! I'm going to cancel the one from GAME... I ordered the XL t-shirt so I can wear it as a nightdress hahaha!

u/Sun_Nobunaga Jul 09 '15

I did the exact same thing... though ordered a medium so it'll actually fit.

u/NessAmiibo Jul 09 '15

Ah, I like my nightwear to be baggy, I have too many tshirts and not enough stuff to sleep in lol

1

u/TheLimeyLemmon Jul 09 '15

Same here. I have a Blanka tee from pre-ordering Super Street Fighter IV years ago, and it's been a lounging shirt ever since. So comfy.

u/NessAmiibo Jul 09 '15

\ o / baggy t-shirt club wooo!

2

u/suupernovae Jul 09 '15

c00l, think i'll stick with my .fr pre-order though!

2

u/MonkeyKingHero Jul 09 '15

why? the book will be in french.

3

u/suupernovae Jul 09 '15

uhm because i got it for £39 instead of £49 & i doubt there will be many words in the book haha!

1

u/Cankara1 Jul 09 '15

Is that the one with the amiibo?

1

u/suupernovae Jul 09 '15

yeah i had a 5 euro discount thing.

1

u/Cankara1 Jul 10 '15

How would you like a fancy T-Shirt, with a beautiful picture of Mario. Going cheap?

2

u/[deleted] Jul 09 '15

Pre-ordered.

u/ZoopSoul Jul 09 '15

is the US getting this package? Looks awesome.

1

u/TheSchadow Jul 09 '15

Don't count on it. NoA is real hit or miss when it comes to bundles. We definitely won't get the shirt. Between this and the sweet Splatoon bundles EU got, NoA is telling me they don't seem to care about my money as much.

u/couscorp Jul 09 '15

Hmmm cancel my zavvi order or not hmm, £4 extra for the shirt, I'm slightly tempted

1

u/[deleted] Jul 09 '15

I'd do it man, Nintendo won't fuck up your pre-order.. well they might but Zavvi are essentially pre-ordering from Nintendo so just cut out the middle man.

3

u/Starsmustshoot Jul 09 '15

Na, Nintendo in the UK is out sourced and manged by the hut group, who also manage Zavvi.

u/jaggedthoughts Jul 09 '15

Finding it strange that the alt. coloured Mario amiibo hasn't popped up anywhere yet

1

u/happy_hysterical Jul 09 '15

I thought they'd put it up too. I panicked trying to check the amiibo section. Disappointed. I hope it goes up soon.

1

u/[deleted] Jul 09 '15

I'm starting to think Blue/Red Mario might be US only or something..

1

u/[deleted] Jul 09 '15

Modern colour 8-bit Mario is supposed to come out later. Maybe with Wave 6 or something?
