Nintendo Everything

Update 2: Bumped to the top. The issues have now been addressed.

Update: Nintendo has posted on Twitter that they are working to resolve issues relating to the sale:

Original: As part of Europe’s Zelda Weeks 2017 sale, Nintendo has been announcing that all Zelda games would get a 30% discount for My Nintendo users. Now that the sale is live, we have found out that that is partially true.

You’ll be able to choose among a great variety of Zelda games, but choose wisely because the code you will get is single-use.

People on NeoGAF are warning about this because some users have added lots of money to their eShop accounts in hopes of taking advantage of this opportunity, only to find out that all prices go back to their original state after the first purchase.

Apparently, this is not a glitch as Nintendo states how My Nintendo coupons are single-use.

It’s well known at this point that The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild begins with Link not having memories. In the game world, 100 years have passed by the time you’re able to control the character.

Link’s memory loss appears to have a greater importance to the overall gameplay than some would have initially thought. Since some folks may consider the next bit of information to be spoiler-related, head past the break if you’d like to learn more.

Nintendo shared new details about Mario Sports Superstars, which was just confirmed for a March 10 launch in Europe.

To recap, soccer (football in Europe), tennis, golf, baseball and horse racing are included. Single-player tournaments will be included, along with local and online multiplayer modes.

Here’s a rundown of the different sports and features:

“With five fully-fledged sports games included, Mario Sports Superstars offers something for everyone. Football fans will compete in full-on 11-a-side matches, and will need to master both team tactics and individual skills in order to be victorious. Fans of the Mario Golf and Mario Tennis series will be familiar with the classic gameplay on offer in the golf and tennis games here, developed by Camelot Software Planning. Baseball fans will need to work on their batting and pitching techniques, as heavy-hitters such as Bowser are lining up to knock it out of the park in the first Mario-themed baseball title to be released in Europe in over 10 years. In Horse Racing, aspiring jockeys must saddle up, jump over obstacles and gallop to the finish line first to be crowned as champion. Collecting carrots along the way will replenish your stamina, while collecting stars will enable you to use the special Star Dash technique, greatly improving your chances of victory. Players can also show their caring side by visiting their favourite horses in the Stable. By petting, feeding and grooming a horse, players can build a special bond with it which will work to their advantage on the racing track.
