Original (9/8): Several people who have pre-ordered Super Mario Maker from UK store GAME have apparently had their bank accounts / credit cards charged multiple times. There are multiple reports on Twitter about people being charged around £235 yesterday (five times the game’s price) despite ordering only one copy. GAME responded quickly on Twitter and said that customers affected by this would get  a refund within 24 hours.

However, it seems like the issue was not fully resolved as this morning, at least one person claims to have been charged an additional two times, for a total of seven times the game’s original price.
