New Super Mario Bros. 2 is all about the pre-order bonus
Besides being ALL ABOUT THE COINS, it seems as if Nintendo is going to offer you something for pre-ordering New Super Mario Bros. 2 -- specifically, a off-colored gold coin 3DS cartridge case. In light of this news, it's also important to note that NSMB 2 will be one of the first fully downloadable digital games on the 3DS. Sadly, the aforementioned bonus is only offered at GAME and Gamestation stores across the UK. Mario is no stranger to pre-order bonuses however, so hopefully we can get some worldwide action going with this one. If it ends up coming to other regions, we'll let you know. According to Nintendo, in addition to holding 3DS games, it can hold "any number of small objects." Holy sh*t! New Super Mario Bros. 2 Pre-Order Bonus is Golden [Nintendo Life] Did you know? You can now get daily or weekly email notifications when humans reply to your comments.
Legacy Comments (will be imported soon)Looks like you'd use it once, lose a cartridge in it and wonder why you don't keep your carts in their respective cases.
NO FANX, GAME I already have the 3DS card case and New Super Mario Bros wii, so all needs have already been satisfied to satisfaction here. But if they offered this as a Club Nintendo reward, I would certainly get one just for the opportunity to spend my coins on a coin. More preorder bonuses like this please. I'm glad they didn't rip in game content out to hold hostage, you're actually getting a bonus here. I was hoping the actual game cartridge would be gold. Like Zelda on the NES. That would be so awesome!! "Sadly, the aforementioned bonus is only offered at GAME and Gamestation stores across the UK."
