They didn't. Nintendaan (A European reviewer) got them a European review code.

Oh wow, thanks guys.

NoA might be taking this a bit too far. I wonder how this will affect Odyssey coverage.

Even IGN didn't get code.

Wow that is crazy. What is NOA thinking?

I can confirm personally that RPG Site got code from NoE as well. I've yet to see anyone say they got code from NoA - the closest I've seen is some "Brand Ambassadors" talking about how they've played it and Odyssey recently, presumably at some event they were invited to.

I can't say I'm not a little bit worried about the precedent NoA seems to be setting here.

Yeah it's dumb to not give a big outlet like IGN review code, they are the last people who are gonna leak your game online.

Well, that's an unusual development. It makes sense to pull back on influencers but IGN? Whatever one can say about them, they're not one to dump a ROM online.

 

[DecoReturns]

If IGN didn't get one. Makes me wonder who did it.

Still strange tho, but no way they won't give them a Mario code.

They couldn't go beg Audrey

Apparently that guy had to declare bankruptcy to get out of that massive settlement figure

And later received a "gift" from Nintendo:

im curious if IGN will talk about this in the next NVC curious to hear more about this situation.

 

[cw_sasuke]

That is nuts

Why would they get one if everybody else didnt get one ?

 

[Theswweet]

Why would they get one if everybody else didnt get one ?

...because they're IGN? It's not unreasonable to think that, even if no other outlet got code, they might've.
