Original: Amazon has started taking pre-orders for the Zelda Encyclopedia Deluxe Edition. If you’d like to reserve the special version of the book, you can do so here.
The Zelda Encyclopedia Deluxe Edition cover features a gold foil paper with gloss lamination and a spot gritty varnish. The details are embossed and debossed, and it has gold gilding on the top and foredge, with black gilding on the bottom. It’s basically a tribute to the original Zelda cartridge.
Thanks to Wagner C for the tip.
Last night, Bandai Namco announced One Piece: Pirate Warriors 3 Deluxe Edition for Switch. Amazon Japan has since posted the boxart, which we have above.
Limited Run Games will finally begin to publish Switch titles in 2018. Now the question is, what will the company begin with?
One very strong possibility is Golf Story. Speaking with The Switch Effect, Limited Run Games co-founder Douglas Bogart pointed to that title as well as FAST RMX and Thimbleweed Park as games he’d like to give the physical treatment to. Even more telling, Bogart later said that “we thought our first title would just be a pipe dream, but instead it’s a hole in one.”
That last line is definitely a nod to golf, and we all know that Switch has one big indie golf game – that being Golf Story, of course. We should know for sure if this is what Bogart was teasing in a few months.
Retailers have opened pre-orders for the new Mizuki / Selene figma. This is the female protagonist in Pokemon Sun/Moon.
The figure comes with a standard face plate and a smiling face based on her official artwork. Rowlet, Litten, and Popplio are also included. A shoulder bag, Pokeball, and Z-Ring, are in the package as well for optional parts.
You can pre-order the figma on Play-Asia, Good Smile, or AmiAmi. We have some additional photos below.
Nintendo kicked off Switch’s launch with a bang thanks to Zelda: Breath of the Wild. If that wasn’t enough, Super Mario Odyssey has arrived just in time for the holidays. These two games have helped made Switch’s first year very special.
Reggie spoke about having Zelda and Mario ready early on for Switch in an interview with TechCrunch. He noted that Nintendo was lucky in terms of the development schedule, with a game like Breath of the Wild being far along in development.
