The past couple of weeks have brought some enticing deals to shoppers, including those on the lookout for Nintendo treats. While scuffles and death-of-humanity scenes in stores and malls have now passed, there are still plenty of discounts kicking around to grab some nice gifts or treats for ourselves.
For UK gamers there are now some extra options on the Official Nintendo UK Store, which has launched a "24 Days of Christmas" campaign that's offering up to 80% off some products. There are plenty of accessories and clothing, in addition to the Animal Crossing soundtrack CD for just £1.99.
In terms of hardware there are two 2DS packs, both at a smidge under £130 — there's a Pokémon bundle that includes the Omega Ruby steelbook + figurine version and a case, along with a Smash Bros. + case deal. Though the store's pricing typically sticks to the upper reaches with hardware, the Alpha Ruby deal gives decent value on the more desirable steelbook edition.
You can check out the details at the link below, and let us know if you decide to pick anything up.

Already got the Animal Crossing cd and the ladies Zelda hoodie. Can't resist a good bargain 😀
The only one I would have been interested would have been the hoodie. Too bad the Male one isn't on sale. :<
I'm not using the online store again. Both of my past experiences have had bad delivery, fake information and terrible customer service.
I was looking at the hoodie as a gift, but can anybody make sense of the size guide? Even on XL the chest measurement is only a tiny 56cm. Even worse, the same size guide appears on the Mario Kart T-Shirt and the (non-Sale) men's hoodie. 56cm? XL? Really?
... unless 56cm is measured from left seam to right seam and is not the full chest measurement?
Ordered a pair of the Animal Crossing CD's; at £1.99 how couldn't I!?
great... i paid a lot of Club Nintendo stars for that soundtrack. And now i can't order it or anything else because im not a UK resident. Nintendo please get your act together and launch a pan-European online store
£2 for an animal crossing CD, my animal crossing "freak" friend will blow xD
but i bought it
Bet it is only junk at anywhere near 80% off for the duration.
Possibly the worst 'sale' I've ever seen. And I used to work at Toys R Us.
Already bought the animal crossing CD and the Mario magazine because I can't get enough of ONM and I miss them so much😭😭😭
what about scandinavia? anything there?
Why do you guys never do any USA Promotions or Give-Aways?
It's highly unfair.
I almost bought that Animal Crossing CD, only to find it was based off of the worst game in the franchise :/.
Can you ship to the US using the UK store?
Scandinavia. +1
To anyone from europe moaning about not having this in your country, YOU ARE NOT MISSING OUT, it's a poorly implemented online store, they've messed up everything i've ordered, the prices are way over the odds and most of the exclusive stuff is tat. Just stick to the reputable online stores in your area. As for anyone in the USA i would happily trade our UK online store for all the games you get that never see light of day in europe...
Some of the people moaning here about how terrible the service is from the online store must be really unlucky. I've ordered a lot from this store and I've never had a problem. I will agree that the prices are at max RRP and never seem to go down, plus, yes, some of the non game/hardware items are of questionable quality. Also, this sale is terrible but I did buy the Animal Crossing CD.
I could well be unlucky but they use yodel/hermes which i'd argue stacks the "luck" in favour of something going wrong. It's all dependent on your delivery driver really and what he/she deems an acceptable delivery. In my one order of 12 amiibos, one gc controller and the smash game/adaptor it was sent out in 7 separate packages, the DK figure & the GC controller weren't actually despatched until this week, i still have no controller... It's not actually nintendo running everything, it's the hut group so again depends on whether you think they give good customer service, i personally stopped using them a good while back.
@Kaine_Morrison Because it is a British based site, plus there are plenty of American things over here, like the fact that NLife usually use dollars instead of pounds when measuring currency
Also you guys in the US have the Pokemon Center
Metroid Prime 3 for 36 pounds? Uhhhhhhhh...
If it was the trilogy it would be a steal, but like this it's a rip-off, though still a great game.
