Pokémon fans in Europe are to receive special bundle editions of Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire. The Limited Edition Steelbook software bundles will be available in Europe from various retailers.
Preorder bonuses have also been announced for the games in the UK, with the retailer ShopTo offering customers a 2D Torchic keychain, GAME handing out a figurine of either Primal Groudon or Primal Kyogre (depending on the version of the game you preorder) with the Official Nintendo Store also offering the figurines.
I’ve personally been holding out on preordering Alpha Sapphire in hope of some preorder bonuses being announced, as soon as these were revealed my preordered was active! Lovely.
Preordered.
I’m just waiting for it to actually say there’s a pre-order bonus on the game website
Although I want the Groudon figure, I wanna play AS, urgh
i am going to get it
And of course EU gets cool preorder bonuses >_>
I NEED other stores to offer the steelbook edition. My pre-order is with ShopTo and I want to keep it that way. The Nintendo store don’t even offer release day delivery on pre-orders :/
Also, yay! This is a nice apology after the EU got kicked in the crotch with a week later release date than the rest of the world.
Preorder cancelled.
Well, the old one anyway.
they didn’t talk about preorder date
Darn it Brits.
Shouldn’t have dumped that tea, huh.
Nah.
You guys hog all the good stuff but don’t get anything we do so no Mega Diancie poster for you.
I’m kidding give me the bundle or I’ll do something.
Shopto delivers all around Europe, isn’t it?
Shopto doesn’t have the figurines though.
Ok, I get it now. Article was too complicated for me to understand.
Yeah, it’s moving, duh.
Moving: Overly complicated
PJ: Hardly detailed
Dae: Shit writing
So modsist
This is true.
This is very true.
sry bby.
Hmmm i wonder why is the box so big hmmm… HgSs had big boxes hmmmm.. Pokewalker..hmmm idk xd
It’s because it appears to contain both the Steelbook and the regular game case.
Ah okey! But theres always hope
If there was an additional accessory it would’ve been revealed by now.
I love shopto
The game cartridge looks extremely cool
My stupid lucky cousins…
Don’t worry I doubt American won’t get a similar bundle
I’m considering moving to Greece. 🙁
We still get the game a FULL WEEK before you guys so…..
😉
I want the pins…
We know you do.
You have this weird pin fetish.
We don’t judge.
If you say so..
I am A Thing
That sad moment when you saw this on serebii and thought new ORAS leaks happened 🙁
ALSO there is a Japanese 3ds direct tommorow 😀 probably has smash AND ORAS
HYPE HYPE for new music
Hype hype for new character for smash!
Hype for probably a character of the leaks xD
I would love to hear them say, “Well some of our idiots here at nintendo leaked pictures of the roster to the internet, now for punishment, you can now only play as Mario characters”
well, I wouldnt like that, but if they acknowledged the leaks it would be hilarious
They may have a later release date, but they get cool stuff. Dx
Btdubs: Dat case is amazing.. Like a deluxe album or something
Life size models?
No xD
Saddest part.
The game carts are grey 🙁
Most shopping carts are.
I’d be a fool not to get the tins
I thought you lived in Long Island.
Dear uk people:
Shut up
My cousins live in Greece 🙁
Tell them to get you one lel
I should
I live in Greece, but this is only for the UK, I want the steelbook version but it’s only available from the UK Nintendo Store which doesn’t ship anywhere besides UK.
So yeah, it’s only for the UK, not Europe.
U jelly Bro?

They’d be fools not to do this in America too.
Then they are fools.
Yes they are.

Tomorrow 7 am est
yep probably on smash and maybe MAYBE oras
No hype,
Japan only, stays japan only
Lies
….
Your the one lying to your self m8
You Americans get everything 😛 I’m glad Europe gets these 😀
What are you talking about?
We never get anything.
we always get the short end of the stick XD we will be lucky to get something other than the poster at gamestop
I didn’t even get the poster because I pre ordered early!0
Apart from getting games earlier, better stuff on the Nintendo eshop and better rewards.
Checkmate.
*Japanese
Not sure if sarcastic. 🙂
If US doesn’t get this bundle I’ll be glad, so I can just buy the game from the eshop without feeling like I’m missing out on bonuses 😛

funniest match i had in inverse battle! Mega abomasnow 6-0 sweep XD, thats something you never hear usually
Well it’s inverse, Abomasnow has a boatload of resistances… 😀
exactly XD mega abomasnow finally can wreck XD
I wish you could do inverse online :/
Only when Nintendo offers it as the Special Battles for the month…
I guess that’s what simulators are good at: having rated battles for whatever metagame official or unofficial that people can think of…
yep 🙂 only reason i actually like showdown
Well if it makes people in North America (except poor Canada heh heh got punished by Nintendo) feel better, Mario Kart 8’s DLC was announced first in Europe then in NA… so… just wait a day, you’ll see it.
hopefully i really wanna get the steel box and figurine of primal groudon 😀 itll fit in my collection
I’m happy with a mudkip keychain, but if I have the opportunity to acquire steel box I’ll take one.
It’s not coming here.
Europe usually has the good pre order bonuses.
We always get posters.
dont be pessimistic 🙂 Look at the positive and it will happen
cant hear you over the sound of posters bonuses
Yup.
whattt cant hear over the fact is Nintendo gives use Paper and UK plastic
It won’t happen.
Don’t get your hopes up.
im not getting my “hopes up” Im just thinking for the better
well if it does come to america it possibly be like that Nintendo world shit…. like they did with mario kart 8
Don’t.
