Yesterday, River City: Tokyo Rumble went up on Natsume’s Amazon store. This was the special physical version that’s packed with a keychain. It actually sold out already, but Natsume is working on a restock as soon as possible. A specific date hasn’t been determined, but it’ll be up on Amazon here as soon as more copies are in.

It’s good news for the publisher, as sales have “well exceeded what we thought the demand would be for physical copies.” Natsume apologized to those who aren’t able to purchase a copy, but you should keep an eye on that Amazon page for the restock.

Here’s the news from Natsume:

GameStop stores in the United States distributed Darkrai in the Pokemon 3DS games earlier in the year. Fans now have another opportunity to obtain the Mythical Pokemon.

Through October 31, Pokemon X/X and Pokemon Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire players can receive Darkrai by using the code “Darkrai20”. It’s the same one that was given out at GameStop, so if you received that one, you won’t be able to get this one as well.
