We still have a few months to go until the launch of Pokemon Legends: Arceus, but the game is now up for pre-order on the UK My Nintendo Store with bonuses.
Fans will be supplied with not one, but two special items. Along with a steelbook, a figurine of Arceus will be provided. These bonus items are subject to availability while supplies last. If you already pre-ordered from the UK My Nintendo Store, your order will be automatically upgraded.
This month’s NPD report is in, and it confirms that Switch was the best-selling hardware platform in terms of units during August. Additionally, that news goes for 2021 thus far as a whole. Sony leads both time periods in terms of dollar sales with the PlayStation 5, but the console is more expensive.
Across the entire industry, gaming hardware dollar sales in August rose 45 percent year-over-year to $329 million. It’s the highest total for an August month since 2008 ($395 million), and the third highest August month total in history.
Also worth mentioning, year-to-date hardware spending for games is up 49 percent when compared to the same period in 2020, totaling $3.0 billion.

A pretty handy reward has just been added to My Nintendo in Europe, with members now able to spend their points on a Switch card case.
The case lets users store up to eight game cards at once. It comes with two different cover sheets, and you can also replace them with your favorite design. It measures in at 170mm x 105mm x 12mm. Polypropylene is listed as the used material. We can’t help but be reminded of the 3DS game card case that was offered in North America through Club Nintendo many years ago.

Previously planned for a 2021 release, publisher X.D. Network and developer MICAteam of Sunborn Games Technology have delayed Reverse Collapse: Code Name Bakery to 2022. In a message rounded up by Gematsu, the developer said the following:
The very first trailer for Reverse Collapse was released over two years ago in 201, and we have not stopped working on this project since. This is a remaster of our first game, Code Name: Bakery Girl (2013), so it represents something special and meaningful to us. This is also an opportunity for us to make up for our shortcomings as an amateur game developer in our earlier years, so our team really went all-in to infuse the script with elaborate storylines, graphics, characters, levels, and mechanics. We hope that the final product will be presented as an exciting new experience that captures the essence of Code Name: Bakery Girl.
Beyond the visual update and code optimization, we came up with a lot of new and interesting ideas in the development process for Reverse Collapse, some of which have already debuted during live streams and offline demos, while other core content is still undergoing QA and optimization. Therefore, we have decided to move the release to 2022 so that the team can continue to work on the new content until the entire game is complete and polished.
