GameStop no longer providing Xenoblade Chronicles art book with pre-order
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
Even though you can still pre-order Xenoblade Chronicles at GameStop, the retailer won’t be handing out art books as a bonus from here on out. It seems as though GameStop no longer has any product to provide. According to Nintendo Everything tipster Glenn D, an internal email “said that we as a company have now met the quantity we were given of the artbooks for the pre-orders and we can no longer use this as an incentive.”
XSEED approached Nintendo for The Last Story, identical to European version, limited run, more

Fans weren’t entirely surprised when The Last Story was announced for North America last month. They were, however, taken aback by the publisher news. It was revealed that the small localization company XSEED – not Nintendo – would be localizing the epic RPG.
As far as how this agreement came to be, XSEED Director of Publishing Ken Berry told IGN that their company approached Nintendo, “and they were receptive to our initial inquiry.” Berry said that their interest in The Last Story picked up “sometime after the Tokyo Game Show when we purchased a copy in Japan and started to actually play the game for ourselves.”
In the statements from Berry below, you’ll also be able to read up on XSEED’s localization plans. This includes making the North American version identical to the European release, limited edition possibilities, a limited run for the game, marketing support from Nintendo, and more.

You can still nab this book by pre-ordering Xenoblade Chronicles at GameStop. Make sure to reserve it before the title launches… that’s a little more than a week away.

I guess this would be a pretty good demographic to advertise the game to!
