Update (1/7): Bumped to the top. It’s not listed on the product page, but GameStop indicated on Twitter that this offer applies to the Fire Emblem Fates Special Edition as well.
@Excalibur0123 Quick answer – yes, at time of pickup 🙂

Original (1/6): GameStop is planning a special pre-order bonus for Fire Emblem Fates. If you reserve the game, you’ll receive three character keychains. This is valid both in-store and online.
I’ve included a shot from GameStop’s ad showing the keychains above. Because the image was rather tiny, I increased the size so it’d be more visible. That naturally made it blurry!
The Play Nintendo YouTube account just published another video to promote Yo-kai Watch. View the “Fidgephant Pool Party” below.
Several games hit the Wii U eShop today, including Bigley’s Revenge. 7 minutes of footage is posted below.
Over 28 million physical games were sold in the UK last year. That’s a 6 percent drop year-over-year, but there is some good news for Nintendo. MCV reports that Wii U game sales rose slightly in 2015.
Data from Chart-Track, which provided the information, is based on 53 weeks of sales from 2015. 2014’s data had only 52 weeks.
A few Nintendo-related items have been discounted on Amazon. The lineup includes big savings on LEGO Dimensions, Skylanders SuperChargers, and more.
Here are some of the notable sales:
Skylanders SuperChargers Starter Pack – $49.99 (save $25)
New Super Mario Bros. U + New Super Luigi U – $44.99 (save $15)
LEGO Dimensions Starter Pack – $43.66 (save $56.33)
Hatsune Miku: Project Mirai DX – $29.99 (save $10)
Animal Crossing amiibo 3-pack – $22.98 (save $12.01)
Snoopy’s Grand Adventure – $19.99 (save $20 on Wii U, $10 on 3DS)
Update (1/7): Bumped to the top. This theme will also be an early purchase bonus as Amazon Japan:
Original (1/5): Atlus has unveiled a new 3DS theme based on Shin Megami Tensei IV Final. This will come as an early purchase bonus as part of the “Prohibited God-Slayer DLC Set”. When selecting the theme, there will be background music from Shin Megami Tensei IV Final, and the cursor sound will be become the same as in the game.
Update: More videos added to the post.
Drill Dozer came out on the European Wii U Virtual Console earlier today. For a look at the game, view the video below.
