Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire European Bundles Announced

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.

  1. And all we get is a stupid poster than probably won’t even be put up on the wall. I blame moving for my disappointment.

  2. ;~; So instead of Europe just getting punished for leaking early, they get punished and then a gift for free with it. So es 2 – 1, Europe – Elsewhere. Unless everywhere gets the gifts too.

  4. Just so people know: the steelbook case isn’t a free preorder bonus. It’s a standalone edition with a £5 markup. The figurines are a free preorder bonus however :).

  5. i was bored and i was like in like 2022 im guessing when Unova gets remade people ask B/W or B2/W2…. they wouldn’t make 4 games right…. what if they the handheld is so powerful that Black and Black 2 are in one cartridge while the same goes for white and white 2…. Say u get Black/Black2 Remake and u beat black now u can move on to black 2…. i say this would be the best way so people wouldn’t just play black/White remakes or just Black2/White2 remakes… its is so far away but im just taking some speculation here for game thats like 8 years away XD

    • Should be pretty easy for them to do that, specially if its 8 years away. Would make sense for them to do that too. Pokemon Yin Black and Yang White??

      Hell… I wouldn’t be surprised if they just name it Pokemon Grey and consolidated the B1W1B2W2 stories into one game.

    • The 3Ds cartridges are big enough for that now. But by then, should we all be alive still, Nintendo would have realistic graphics and holographic projectors in their handhelds.

    • I’m guessing story-wise, it would follow BW. But it would be pulling elements from B2W2, like Humilau City, Lentimas town and all those.

  6. Did you know, that during the development of Gold & Silver, they ran out of space on the cartridge halfway through development time? Then a certain Iwata came in (yes, the same Iwata that’s now President of Nintendo, he isn’t only know for his lucious locks, he also has mad programming skills) and found a way to compress the game so much they had enough space for another continent on it (Kanto).
    So thank Iwata for the fact that you can visit the old gyms in GS.
