Everyone around the world who’s registered both their 3DS and Wii U copies of the latest iteration of Super Smash Bros. is patiently waiting to get their email containing two codes for the legendary Pokémon. To help ease your worries and speculations as to when Mewtwo will finally arrive in your inbox, do note that Smash will be undergoing maintenance until 5PM JST, 4AM EST / 9AM GMT, so you can expect to see Mewtwo arrive sometime around then at the earliest.
Remember that if you didn’t register both your Wii U and 3DS copies of Super Smash Bros. with Club Nintendo before March 31st, you’ll be able to get your hands on Mewtwo when the DLC becomes available on April 28th for $3.99 for one version and $4.99 for both.
[おしらせ]3DS版、WiiU版両方をクラブニンテンドーにご登録頂いた方を対象とした、ミュウツーの先行配信は、本日(4月15日)の夕方以降に開始する予定です。今しばらくお待ちください。
