@FierceRagnar Here is something disappointing... As a collector, I may only be able to get ONE copy of this unless I can somehow get a £20.00 to magically appear and it is available at my local store.

@crazycrazydave I can understand your point. But making the limited editions less "limited" ruins the fun of the hunt.

@Bsham They are likely going to cancel one of them...

@nintyfandavid They added that as soon as the product was sold out and it is just as underhanded as what I mentioned Nintendo did to me a while ago... I have still not forgiven them for it...

"I never see the One Per Customer disclaimer anymore on Nintendo UK Official Store. But I am always wary of them as I tried to order two of one item last year which NEVER said "One Per Customer" and I took a screenshot of it just for my verification.

However Nintendo UK Official Store slapped the disclaimer on after a while and told me that they were going to cancel one of my pre-orders.

Someone told me that I should have gone to Trading Standards when they did that as slapping a disclaimer on should be the FIRST thing that a retailer does...

This probably wouldn't have affected them, but at the time, I decided to screw them completely. I cancelled BOTH of my pre-orders as they weren't getting my cash if I could only have one copy."

@Shinnos That was like three minutes after I had pre-ordered it...

I was quite slow to pre-order that item as I managed to pre-order the Star Fox Zero: First Print Edition within two minutes of getting the available email from Nintendo.

@Eintopf Customer Support might just give you a copy/paste reply however...

@Ciaran10_0_10 I could POTENTIALLY pass your comment over to someone I know from Nintendo UK.

Maybe... Not sure right now.

@Ciaran10_0_10 Nintendo is just gonna ignore that petition, you know... They are a massive corporation...

But honestly... Good luck with it.

@wazlon I can confirm that I managed to snag one.

@Marshi I never see the One Per Customer disclaimer anymore on Nintendo UK Official Store. But I am always wary of them as I tried to order two of one item last year which NEVER said "One Per Customer" and I took a screenshot of it just for my verification.

However Nintendo UK Official Store slapped the disclaimer on after a while and told me that they were going to cancel one of my pre-orders.

Someone told me that I should have gone to Trading Standards when they did that as slapping a disclaimer on should be the FIRST thing that a retailer does...

This probably wouldn't have affected them, but at the time, I decided to screw them completely. I cancelled BOTH of my pre-orders as they weren't getting my cash if I could only have one copy.

@NintendoFanBoy16 Do you... regret... your username choice? heh heh...

@Grumblevolcano WHAAAAAAAAT?!!!!! I COULD HAVE ORDERED TWO COPIES?!!!! DAMNIT!!!!

@NintendoFanBoy16 They will likely have one of their orders cancelled.

@Achoo Despite all that looks at Nintendo UK Official Store account

I have outscalped the scalpers... YET AGAIN... yawns

@ThomasBW84 I have managed to acquire a Star Fox Zero: First Print Edition AND Fire Emblem Fates: Limited Edition on my pre-order list in my account pre-orders section at the Nintendo UK Official Store now.

#Iam2good@this

@Mister_Wu I literally have no idea...

Personally I don't think I am going to get much use out of the MyNintendo Points, but I really don't mind at all...

I have always been one for physical items as I love to have a box and stuff. I especially love special editions and limited editions and have been known to occasionally purchase two of specific limited editions that I am interested in.

For example, I have got two Star Fox Zero: First Print Editions on pre-order right now.

@allav866 There is a way you can purchase it via Nintendo UK's actual website now...
You must be logged into your Nintendo Account though
https://www.nintendo.co.uk/Games/Nintendo-3DS/Hyrule-Warriors-Legends-1025970.html

It gives you a button saying Download Version: Proceed To Purchase from a desktop computer browser and displays the price as £34.99. (50 Gold Points can be earned)

@Sakura I have got a confirmed and verified PayPal account as well.

I am wanting to believe the member of staff that told me as it was not just the generic Customer Service email...Oh no...

I have the email of someone from the GAME Headquartees.

@Sakura So it looks like PayPal is the safest option with GAME?
At least safer than simply using a Debit Card...

@Toaster05 What did you pay? Any more than £49.99 would be a complete rip off...

@Sakura I actually got charged once and then refunded and ended up getting Super Mario Maker for £0.00.

The only thing I am concerned about is that I normally have a few pre-orders over time and having one not cost what I have planned for could put out a domino effect on the other pre-orders.

@Starwolf_UK I was going off the prices that GAME.co.uk had set for Birthright and Conquest when I calculated that, just so you know.

Birthright: http://www.game.co.uk/en/fire-emblem-fates-birthright-324194

Conquest: http://www.game.co.uk/en/fire-emblem-fates-conquest-895455

So my calculations were quite accurate.

@Sakura "If you use Paypal to go direct from your bank account, GAME can only charge once, since Paypal would need authorisation for each transaction and multiple purchases won't go through. That's what saved me with Mario Maker."

What if I just use PayPal? Can PayPal still only authorise one charge?

I am REALLY happy about pre-ordering the Fire Emblem Fates: Special Edition for Nintendo 3DS today.

If we all think about it for a few minutes however... This is a £104.97 bundle for £69.99 which is a saving of £34.98 which is effectively ONE of the three games included in the box for free apart from a penny.

You also get a double-sided poster, steel book AND artbook thrown in as well.

@DoctorOverbuild To say this was something really hyped up about because pre-orders were selling out left and right all over Europe... I just casually ordered it on GAME.co.uk... heh heh...

@GrizzlyArctos That is odd... I just CHECKED OUT the check out. lol
and it says £69.99 and not a penny more?

Whether anyone believes me is up to the individual person, but I was concerned about GAME and so I emailed a staff member at GAME HQ that I know mentioning this and referencing the issue with Super Mario Maker and their reply was as follows.

"Hi Jason,
This was an isolated incident and has not happened since, so you do not need to worry.

Kind Regards,"

I also pre-ordered the Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD Collector’s Edition Guide from GAME.co.uk earlier this year and they charged me £19.99 and not £139.93.

I am OVER THE MOON for Pokémon Moon. (Pun Alert)
I will still enjoy Pokémon Sun just as much however.

@luigifan624 Only 41... You can still get out of this without too much damage... I am in FAR too deep...

Pretty cool mock-up of a controller there.
But... meh... Didn't have me fooled...

I bought one of these in a Pokkén Tournament bundle from Nintendo UK Official Store and it ended up with it basically only costing me £10.00 when looking at the price of Pokkén Tournament seperately.

I also have another one of these Pokkén Tournament Pro Pad Controllers ordered on Amazon.co.uk for £9.99.
I managed to get it for a fantastic deal (It has since gone up to £19.99 on the product page) and then I had an unused £5.00 promotional credit. So I have effectively managed to get two of these for the RRP of ONE.

If anyone wants one, here is the link to the product page on Amazon.

(Temporarily Out of Stock)

I received the email message from Nintendo UK Official Store saying that it was available at 6.03pm.
I had pre-ordered the item and received a pre-order confirmation email at 6.05pm...

@Churchy "Because of Miyamoto's status within the company, no one is going to argue with him." Company hierarchy SHOULD dictate that Tatsumi Kimishima can argue as he is THE boss there.

@abbyhitter I don't understand them... Why are Nintendo not at all inclined to add them... Hidden pun there btw... lol

@Ryu_Niiyama You might as well double dip with this game.

I know one person who is double double-dipping and with two Limited Editions of both games no less...

Pokémon Sun?
Pokémon Moon?

The game Mario Party 6 was based on the sun and moon.

Pokémon: amiibo Festival confirmed!

@AndrewJ If it does. I will buy it twice... I already have two of the Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword Limited Edition Gold Nintendo Wii Remote Plus Edition anyway.

I would buy this in a heartbeat if it was released as a physical box edition in UK/Europe as I LOVE my farming type simulators.

I have all of the following farming simulator games and they are all the physical box edition.

Harvest Moon: Back to Nature - Sony PlayStation One
Harvest Moon 3D: A New Beginning - Nintendo 3DS
Harvest Moon 3D: The Lost Valley - Nintendo 3DS
Harvest Moon DS - Nintendo DS
Harvest Moon Sunshine Islands - Nintendo DS
Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town - Game Boy Advance
Harvest Moon: More Friends of Mineral Town - Game Boy Advance
Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life - Nintendo GameCube
Story of Seasons - Nintendo 3DS

It is not technically a farming game per se, but I also have the Nintendo 3DS game called Hometown Story as well.

@DoctorOverbuild I am going to have a FANTASTIC March this year.

I would REALLY like to buy some Undertale amiibo personally.

I am filled with deTEMMIEnation for this game to come to Nintendo Wii U and I hope there is a physical release as I would potentially purchase two copies.

@Grumblevolcano Yeah definitely.

@aaronmclaren I had these ordered elsewhere from Jan 26, 2016.
So VERY slow on the uptake, but it could be worse... It could be a...

Slow... news... day... O.o

@gb_nes_gamer I received my demo code without a pre-order. XD

I managed to get a code directly from Nintendo UK a while ago for this game demo anyway, but this is really awesome of Nintendo UK!

I really don't think they will go on general sale as they look like a fantastic prize that will be limited to only the King of Players and King of Course Creators.

Will this be the update that brings slopes in Super Mario Maker?!!!!!!
Woohoooooo! Slopes!!!!

Has anyone seen any slopes in the game now?
