The Super Smash Bros. soundtrack appears to be making its way out to Club Nintendo members.

As of today, Nintendo has started sending emails about an unnamed physical reward being shipped. Since the order number is in line with what’s listed on users’ Club Nintendo page, it appears that this is in fact the Smash Bros. soundtrack.

Fans were able to reserve the soundtrack by registering Super Smash Bros. Wii U/3DS on Nintendo’s rewards site. Another bonus – Mewtwo DLC – will be available this spring.

Thanks to Anthony for the tip.

This information comes from Nintendo UK’s director of marketing Shelly Pearce:

“We’re really pleased with how Majora’s Mask 3D and Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate have performed. Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate has significantly outperformed its predecessor and The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask 3D has debuted at the top spot in the individual format chart. We’ve also seen a strong start for the New 3DS and we’re looking forward to building this momentum.”

MCV notes that the launch of New 3DS caused the UK hardware market to rise 57 per cent week-on-week.
