The individual Super Mario series Mario amiibo is coming to North American store shelves on April 3, Nintendo has announced.

At the moment, this figure can only be obtained by purchasing the Mario Party 10 bundle. Doing so allows consumers to save a tiny amount compared to buying them separately.

Nintendo of America wrote on Twitter just a couple of minutes ago:

Atlus tends to include bonus items with first-print copies of its games. With Etrian Odyssey 2 Untold: The Fafnir Knight, that will once again be the case.

Here’s what’s inside the launch edition:

The Official Staff Book — 22 pages of art, including early drafts of character concepts, introductions to the characters, with both explanations of their individual back stories as well as developer insight to the character creation process, and QR Codes that will unlock some beginner-friendly Grimoire Stones.

The Fafnir Knight Rough Sketch Soundtrack — CD soundtrack of early verions of the EO2U music by series composer, Yuzo Koshiro. It also has a brief foreword by both Koshiro and EO2U director Shigeo Komori. The CD packaging also has an EO2U mini-comic!

Note that these items are only included with pre-orders and first-run printings only, as supplies will be limited. Once those copies are gone, so are the bonuses!
