Pre order MK8 Delux direct with Nintendo and you get a free Boo or feather mug.

Boo obviously.

I'll be well up for some "Beep Beep" come time.

Aw, no dedicated giant, red horn on Switch!

Free mug with physical version only?

Odd thing is that I planned on buying as many games on carts as possible for Switch. Managing storage space and Nintendo's wacky digital policies being the main drivers. That said, Binding Of Isaac, Street Fighter and (thread relevance, HO!) Mario Kart are games that I'd want to have on my Switch forever and always, so now I've no idea what to do.

But, yes, more than up for MK8D game nights!

Yeah, I'd assume so !! It's one of those Nintendo gifts you get when you pre-order through them. Love them things :lol: .

Every game I buy for my Switch will be physical, if it's available. Being a collector is my drive.

I'm holding out for Isaac, which I hope will be soon, as you mentioned in the Nintendo thread, hopefully we'll hear something today.

But yeah, Physical all the way for me where I can.

Yeah, the new box art for Isaac looks ace too.

I noticed too, that there's a t-shirt/poster offer for Ultra Street Fighter II on the Nintendo store. Tough to pass up the boxed versions when Nintendo are incentivising those little, bitter carts. :mrgreen:

Yep, I grabbed that too :oops: . Went for the t-shirt over the poster though.

I'm incorrigible! :oops:


I'd opt for the t-shirt too. Not sure I'd have an appropriate place for an A2 Street Fighter poster, much as I might love the idea of framing it in all its glory!

No dilemma, its simple.

You're logic dictates that you don't want a t shirt and mug that much :lol: .

Ah! Afraid I might have to let the side down.

The 5th is our anniversary, and we'll be running 5km on the 6th. Probably not the best night to spend a couple of hours on Mario Kart (however fun I'm sure it would be).

I'll keep abreast of the next date and be sure to clear my schedule!

I work monday through friday and the time difference makes it impossible.

Put it on a Saturday or Sunday and I'm there.

Right then, we'll do a roll call of who's actually picked this up and if we've got decent numbers I'll pen in a proper date to get online together! (Probably next weekend?)

Re: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe game night! Saturday May 6th 21:00 UK time!

Post by AndrewBrown »

Assuming my copy comes, count me in. Amazon is still telling me it's coming Friday before 8pm even though it hasn't shipped yet (Thursday night as I write this). They pulled the same thing with Zelda, but it still came first thing Saturday morning. I expect I shall be there.

I'm all good for this.

Got nothing planned all weekend so no real preference to any day or time.

Evening/night UK time would be ideal, as I'll feel less guilty about having a few beers at the same time.
