Depending on how you buy Yo-kai Watch 2 at the end of September, different bonuses will be available to you.

Nintendo announced today that those who pick up the physical version will receive “an exclusive Yo-kai Medal from Hasbro that gives Jibanyan a powerful new in-game Soultimate Move when scanned into the game.” On the other hand, going digital provides “players the opportunity to battle and befriend new Yo-kai: Sailornyan or Robonyan F.”

Yo-kai Watch 2 will be sold in Bony Spirits and Fleshy Spirits versions. The Yo-kai and Medals differ based on the version of the game purchased.

Update: Now up on Amazon Canada as well.

Amazon is offering an exclusive “Steelbook Dual Pack” for Pokemon Sun/Moon. It’s priced at $89.99, though Prime members can nab it for $71.99. Orders are now up here.

The Pokemon Sun/ Moon Steelbook Dual Pack naturally contains both games. You’ll also receive a collectible Steelbook case with a purchase.

Something similar was announced for Europe last month. Nintendo will be making “Pokemon Sun/Moon – Fan Editions” available which also contain copies of the game and a Steelbook. However, they’re individual items as opposed to a bundle.
