The Nintendo Official UK Store has updated its listings for Pokémon Sword and Shield, throwing in some bonus goodies at no extra cost.
The games were originally available on the store for the full £49.99 retail price, each as standalone items. Now, the games have remained at the same price but include a lovely looking steelbook case featuring a design appropriate for your chosen version.
In addition to this, a new bundle has appeared which comes with an exclusive golden dual game card steelbook and a Grookey, Scorbunny and Sobble figurine. You can find all three options below.

I want that Trio starter figurine !
Makes popcorn in anticipation of people moaning it's not in America (yet)
Does anyone want or ever use Steelbooks? I see no use for them what-so-ever. I've got two Steelbooks sitting on my shelf collecting dust ever since I got them.
@TJWorks I made a cartridge holder out of mine.
@TJWorks steelbooks are meant for 3 people, people that love a franchise or game and want all the goodies, people that collect steelbooks and people that like to collect and display games.
They aren’t meant for people that buy games simply to play them or don’t care about displaying the boxes.
Nice. That’s very nice
Now very conflicted of I want the two individual steel books which I like the design of or the dual pack for the statue despite not liking the steel book design.
I like steelbooks but not keen on the art on these guys tbh.
@Bunkerneath That's a cool cartridge holder.
@DABYX I don't want to be negative but I'll just ask...I wonder why NOA doesn't see these as viable for their region? My gut tells me they feel they don't need goodies to get sales. NOE may feel like they need to do it. I dunno.
Looks cool, though. I may grab one of those steel books on eBay after they launch.
Dear Europe, please teach America how to provide the awesome special editions you always get.
@Nintendofan83 Nah it's cool, I'd be negative too (have been in the past the other way around ;] )
I'm not sure. I hope it's not that reason!
I'd suggest everyone emailing/ getting a petition or something going and if they see a big enough market maybe, hopefully they will start supplying.
As it is now they don't know unless they try.
I would like that starter figure, but I already have the game pre-ordered from 365Games for £13 cheaper than on Nintendo UK Store.
Oh well.
Very cool indeed @Bunkerneath. What Steelbook did you use or did you somehow get the pokemon ones already?
@BacklogBlues it was the one from Flashback Collectors edition, it had no internal pictures so thought what the hell. Filled it up nowadays though so got the Mario Maker one now, but the inside looks great and it has a plastic slip over it so can’t bring myself to do it.
How cool. I like the steelbook
