We have unfortunate news to share for those those who reserved the Fire Emblem Fates Special Edition from the Nintendo UK store. Emails are going out to some customers today informing them that their orders have been cancelled. In the notice, Nintendo says the product sold out on April 1, but was showing again a few days later due to a “technical error”. A £5 voucher is provided inside the email.

A new Fire Emblem Fates bundle is now up on Nintendo UK’s store here. This includes the packaged version of Fire Emblem Fates: Birthright, Fire Emblem Fates: Conquest downloadable content, Fire Emblem Fates: Revelation downloadable content, a Fire Emblem Fates T-Shirt and a free pre-order only Fire Emblem Fates 3DS theme. Pricing is set at £69.99.

You can read Nintendo’s complete cancellation notice after the break.
