Samus Aran

lol the shitty american "bonus" for buying the combo pack with both games. 200 potions. and the pack doesn't even offer any sort of discount over just buying the two games separately.

Not directly related to ORAS: GameStop's Diancie event just started yesterday. To get it, go to a GameStop, ask the sales clerk for the card, and hope they haven't run out yet by the time you get there. No purchases or pre-orders necessary.

The event supposedly ends on November 16 but most GameStop locations will probably run out before then; the stores near me ran out of cards for the recent Pinsir/Heracross and Shiny Gengar events several days before the events were supposed to end and I expect Diancie is a much higher-demand prize than those two.

It's pretty silly that we're getting events in the form of download codes instead of Wi-Fi or at least local wireless transmission like we used to get before X/Y released. These cards are the only way to distribute Pokémon events that can actually run out madood;

Diancie is a new event-exclusive legendary Pokémon which gains a Mega Evolution when traded to ORAS.
it seems like such a dumb way to do these events too... did gamestop complain about people just going into the store to download these events without talking the the clerk so they couldn't be sold stuff?

Preorder bonuses for North America have finally been revealed

Announced just today, at Walmart, buyers of either version can choose to get either a Groudon or Kyogre figure. They're the same figures that Europe was confirmed to get a couple months ago:

At GameStop, each preorder gets a double-sided poster showing Mega Diancie and Primal Groudon+Kyogre
[spoiler][/spoiler]

I'm canceling my GameStop preorder and switching to Walmart because I'd rather get these figures n_u

Alternatively, if you pre-order a bundle of both games at Amazon or Best Buy, you can get 200 potions sillydood;

it's the most pointless bonus I've ever heard of

just imagine getting cases as a bonus for pre-ordering your all digital games

you mean like when ducktales remasteres first came out as digital only, but you could buy a physical case with a pin and download code inside?

they already are

Some kickstarters offer physical goodies only for backers who pay one of the higher tiers, which can include physical manuals. Mighty No 9 is one example of that.

What the fuck was it for anyway?
