We’re not sure what the holdup was, but Amazon has finally opened pre-orders for Mega Man Legacy Collection 1 + 2. You can reserve the package here. If you have a Prime membership, you’ll save 20%.

Other new Switch pre-orders on Amazon include My Hero: One’s Justice, SNK 40th Anniversary Collection, SteamWorld Dig 2, and Mercenaries Saga Chronicles.
