Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, General Nintendo, News, Wii U | 8 Comments
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.
