Nintendo Weekly News November 27th-December 1st

Today’s weekly news update is brought to you by deals on games and accessories and also cereal. Yes, I said cereal. 

Nintendo Store Free Shipping

The first deal I am going to talk about is the deal going on in the Nintendo Store. 

This deal is for free shipping on Nintendo’s online store. Nintendo Store is pretty cool place to buy refurbished items directly from Nintendo. Some refurbished items include the New 3DS Xl and the Wii U. Accessories for those consoles are also found on their website. The prices are fairly descent. For example, a refurbished Wii U with Nintendo Land only costs $175.00. Things such as plushies and games are also sold on the site. 

You must spend $50 in order to get free shipping and the deal only lasts until December 13^th.

ARMS Update

A new ARMS update has been release. The update boosts the game to version 4.1. 

The update adds the newest fighter, Springtron! The update also adds some new badges and various fixes and adjustments. 

Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Release

It took a while, but Xenoblade Chronicles 2 has finally launched for the Switch. It released on December 1^st. 

After a direct, a few leaks, and gameplay insight, the game has finally released. Much of which I have covered, but in a summary, the game is about Rex, the player, finding a way to stop the Titans from destroying each other. Hope lies in Pyra, a living weapon known as the Blade. You’ll have to find out the rest of the story for yourself. 

The game retails for $59.99 and is available on the eShop and in stores. 

Super Mario Cereal Amiibo

You read that headline right. There is an amiibo that is a cereal box. Here’s a picture of it.

As you can see, on the bottom right corner of the box, you can see the amiibo logo on the box. If you tap this amiibo into Super Mario Odyssey, you can earn some gold coins or a heart. The amiibo, or cereal box, will be available at store shelves as soon as December 11^th. This is in collaboration with Kellogg cereals. Just don’t expect this amiibo to be available at your local GameStop. 

Well, that’s all for this week, so I hope to “see” you next week,
