There's so much misinformation around, Nintendo needs to be very clear about this now that pre orders have started. I don't think it is a download code, but the damage has been done by not being clear enough about it yet
Bit weird that the fact that the sale is Europe/Australia too but not reported here. In fact, those regions have a very large Indie Gems sale on too which include all of these plus many more
It definitely needs some maintenance, it's been a bizarre state of affairs for months. No rewards since March, digital download codes out of stock for games that can't be bought online on the eShop, and N64 and other retro controllers nowhere to be seen. It started so promisingly, but something is definitely wrong there and my guess the maintenance has nothing to do with a direct, despite the fact that one is imminent
Didn't know they were part of Sports Direct. Makes sense, both awful companies with outdated customer service and policies. Surprised Game has lasted this long.
I think it's reasonable value for what you get as it stands, delighted with the SNES titles and looking forward to more. I wouldn't at all be surprised to see more free games in the vein of Tetris in 2020, maybe Mario Tennis ?

Will be good to improve the controls, I threw away 20 packs of strawberry seeds I bought at the Easter Fair by accident 😢
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (October 5th)
Enjoying Stardew Valley finally, waited so long for a sale. Spent so many hours on it already and realise it was easily worth full price.
