European special edition of Metroid: Samus Returns fully revealed
- Thread starter Shiggy
- Start date
It's entirely justified
It doesn't work
In fact, it has never worked. I've used it twice (trying to get SMT Apocalypse and FE Fates LE) and never received an email

Well it seems that it's not going up anywhere else today so I'm giving up for the night; I monitoring a bunch of spanish sites since I missed the literal 10 minute window for amazon (no international shipping though, sorry OverseesGAF) and I'll try to post here if it shows up.
Up for Italian users (70 EUR):

Thank you very much! Too bad my money are frozen right now because of an error... I hope that this will still be there in two hours.
Hey Shiggy, you seem to be very good at finding these!
Do you also post the Metroid Amiibo's here?
That would be so awesome from you.
Despite my searching efforts, I still cannot find the Legacy edition on the german Amazon store without your link...
I just don't get it....
Wait, the Limited Edition already has a page on Amazon.de?
For some reason, it doesn't show up when I search for "Metroid Samus Returns"
EDIT: Not even when I search for "Metroid Samus Returns Limited Edition".
Something's afoot...
you need to use google to find it.
Shiggy, if you have listing links to the the Saturn/MM and other german-only stores, German-GAF will really thank you,
Amazon.de is a lost cause for us, the whole planet just F5ing this thing, like the SNES mini,
we have no chance.
Is this in English? The extra stuff?
the German Majoras Mask special edition had all its contents in english if I remember correctly.
I don't think EU limited editions get written texts (as in manuals and booklets) in their respective languages, not sure though

I'd second that.
Sitting here on Amazon and trying to spy/find all other GER listings for it. No luck so far though... I guess I suck at searching...

You already ruined the mini snes 😍

Nintendo only ever does one single SKU for all of Europe. This is true for every one of their special editions. They all have all languages. You don't have to learn Sanskrit.
no shipping to germany. ffs.

Seeing how Metroid games use to typically sell on handhelds. Don't think they are making a lot of these special editions.
hu, I thought it was not yet open for pre-order on amazon.de?
Was it already available on .de?
.de hasn't started yet, afaik...
Scalpers are buying up everything with a limited nature put out by Nintendo because the company has become infamous for not giving enough supply for the demand. Better get use to it.
lol you guys are sure are giving that F5 key a sweet massage aren't ya. it's going to be a bloodbath
amazon.de will last 5 minutes and of course I'll be taking a shower or just looking through the window.
I wished idealo.de would put it in its system so I could search stores that deliver only to germany.

German postage is so cheap that amazon eats the cost if the order is over 39.
I use a Firefox plugin called Distill to check the page every 5 seconds. No way I'm missing this

huh, on .de it says :
USK ab 12 freigegeben
Currently unavailable.
We don't know when or if this item will be back in stock.
https://www.amazon.de/dp/B07339W2V7/
so it doesn't mean it's out of stock, jsut that they didn't open the pre-orders yet?
cool

yes. It uses the same message for both cases.
Is this a new thing from Amazon now?
I just saw the SNES Mini in .it and couldn't order it for Germany, FFS.
It's a lot cheaper than in Germany too, 79,99...
afaik no.
Not yet

Goddamn between this and the SNES classic I am beginning to resent the amount of time I am having to put into this.
Is there a good reason why this sort of thing can't just happen at a pre-advertised time instead of having to constantly lurk on the internet?
