GameStop is sweetening the deal for consumers who pre-order Xenoblade Chronicles. Those who are willing to dish out a few bucks early will receive an art book when the game releases in April.

It doesn’t look like the offer applies to Nintendo’s online store, so you’ll have to pre-order at GameStop if you want the bonus.

As was the case with the escapeVektor releases on WiiWare, the 3DS version will be downloadable. Nnooo said they’ll combine the chapters from the Wii Shop Channel and place the package on the eShop rather than store shelves.

The studio also stated that they are finished adding new escapeVektor content to the Wii Shop Channel.

A company representative said:

“We’re moving the whole escapeVektor story across to the Nintendo 3DS & PlayStation Vita so there won’t be any more chapters released on WiiWare. The 3DS/Vita versions will be digital downloads.”

Michael Pachter had some not-so-nice things to say about Nintendo recently. The Wedbush analyst was speaking at the Ayzenberg A-List Summit 2012 event to discuss the impact of social landscape on gaming.

At the end of his presentation, Pachter fielded some questions about Nintendo.

First, Pachter spoke about Nintendo being “in disarray” and commented on how he feels that the company has “completely blown Wii U by not telling people what the price is going to be.”

“I think Nintendo is in disarray. I think they’ve completely blown the Wii U by not telling people what the price is going to be. It’s going to launch at $249 because it has to. I think they’re dead anyway because Xbox with Kinect will be priced below that by the time they launch. …[the] Wii was a bubble and that the Wii bubble has burst.”

Pachter then went on to say that Wii owners have moved on to social titles like FarmVille and that these games, along with tablet/smartphone software, have killed the console. He feels these games will lead to the death of Nintendo handhelds as well.

It wasn’t all doom and gloom, though. Pachter complimented Nintendo for their success with Wii through their use of the Blue Ocean strategy which has made gaming a more mainstream activity today.
