Time is quickly running out on one of the Club Nintendo promotions for Super Smash Bros. on Wii U/3DS. If you haven’t already registered your games, be sure to do that before tomorrow ends – otherwise you won’t receive your soundtrack CD. The CD will ship sometime in March.

Those who partake in the Club Nintendo promotion will receive two bonuses. Along with the soundtrack CD, players will be provided with free Mewtwo DLC this spring.

You can find more information on the official page here.

Most games these days tend to offer some form of downloadable content. But in the case of The Legend of Legacy, there are no such plans.

Director Masataka Matsuura told Inside Games (as translated by Siliconera):

“There won’t be a single piece of DLC. That’s pretty rare nowadays. I didn’t want to allocate any of our development budget to that. We’re going with the philosophy of simply focusing on the game as a whole.”

Elsewhere in the interview, Inside Games asked if The Legend of Legacy will have something like a New Game+ mode, where enemies get tougher after beating the game. Matsuura said in response:

The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask 3D will feature a revamped Bomber’s Notebook, series producer Eiji Aonuma has revealed.

For those who haven’t experienced the original, the book can be used to keep track of different quests. Players can obtain it fairly early on.

Aonuma shared the news about improving the Bomber’s Notebook in this month’s issue of GamesMaster. As it turns out, it was Shigeru Miyamoto who suggested that the book be redone so that players would be more aware of the “hidden events” included in the game.

Aonuma stated:

We were told by Mr. Miyamoto that he felt there were a lot of users who finished the original without even noticing all the hidden events scattered around the town. He said that he wanted us to make sure users were more aware of them this time around.
