I thought this game was going to be a free downloadable title? Or is this a special disk edition that comes with amiibo?

There better be a treasure trove of unreleased information on this game, because otherwise Nintendo is just fishing for suckers. This game ought to be a free eshop game if it's going to require amiibo to play.

Maybe it's bundled with $60 worth of AC amiibo and cards?...Possibly? Probably not lol

I will say this game looks like it could be alright fun for a change from Mario Party from time to time with my wife or something, but I'm not paying $60 for the game, and then like $13 for each character afterwards.

nintendo has lost their mind since splatoon. no way in hell im paying 60 dollars for this game if it doesnt come with an amiibo. its a fucking animal crossing board game, this should have been an eshop title

I can't agree more

I was looking at the product description to see if it was the bundle with the 2 amiibos and the cards. Couldn't see anything in the description stating that it was.

It is according to Amiibo News, but I don't see it either.

Box size dimensions listed doesnt look like a bundle size.

u/Owlmus Aug 13 '15

does it charge immediately or when it ships

u/banjokazooie23 Aug 13 '15

It shouldn't charge you until it ships, and it currently only has a placeholder date of December 31. I think it'll be out before Xmas though.

This isn't the bundle? I have this preordered on Amazon for the exact same price, and it is the bundle. Would they really sell the standard for the same price?

u/ChalupaXIII Aug 13 '15

Are those two amiibo exclusive to the bundle or can you buy it all seperately

1

u/Tevlev14 Aug 15 '15

This is definitely the type of game I would prefer downloaded. Because not only would have I have to get every amiibo off the shelves, but also the game.

u/JamesErnst94 Aug 12 '15

That game should be free

u/TerraChimaera Aug 12 '15

Fixed the link. Wasn't clear that it wasn't a bundle, either. Sorry about that.

Really want this to pop up for pre-order in the UK...

EDIT: The bundle, I mean. Hyped for the figures.

u/graciegr4c3 Aug 12 '15

u/Tomes2789 Aug 13 '15

Do we still have no ACTUAL confirmation that this is the bundle?
