You can't pre-purchase anymore
Also I am not sure 2 weeks early digital is worth not saving 20%.

Nintendo ninjas in action, up all hours of the day.
it'd be funny if this mistake prompts a system update.

Not worth it

It's amazing how far in advance of official release day that Nintendo finishes its games. They often have a lead time of well over a month after the game is complete.
Maybe some companies who spend well over a month fixing their games after release should take note.

One of the interviews with the director around E3 had her saying that it was complete around then even.
I think Nintendo delayed the release to pad out the Wii U schedule this year.

Welp, just took the plunge to check it (at $78.74 Canadian...), so we'll find out shortly.

Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze definitely takes the cake for this sort of thing. Retro Studios president admitted that the game was 100% done in November 2013 but it didn't come out until February 2014.

When Tabata joked to me that I wouldn’t have time to play the whole game at E3, I joked back that it probably wasn’t done. Mind you, this was in mid-June. The game comes out in October. Her response: “Hmmm. It’s complete.” Then she laughed.
My download completed but now it says the install is going to take over an hour. Wtf is this normal on WiiU?
From my July 5 article about the game, which was based on an interview I did with the producer in June:
In general it's true though. I remember receiving Toad Treasure Tracker like 2 months before release or something ludicrous like that.
For years, on 3DS too.You can pre-load games on the Wii U?
Not a troll question at all, I didn't even know this (I'm physical only).
I got Bayo2 3 months before it came out lmao.
Lol. They can probably still lock people out until the 7th.
Keep your Wii U offline.
Theory time
Game was supposed to come out months ago but they delayed it to pad the release schedule. The game was already done though. The digital version was set to be unlocked at the original release time idea and they just forgot to change it.
Gonna need impressions from GAF.
God speed!
Isn't this risky? Can't you get in trouble if Nintendo finds out you have it early?
I know, but it could've been an error or glitch. It's not supposed to release until October 7. Never know how Nintendo takes these kind of things.Nobody stole anything, it was available for download, some users downloaded it. Nothing wrong with that.
Wii U disconnected from the internet. Spotpass also off.
My wife adores Paper Mario (including Sticker Star) and she doesnt know yet this game exists. I was planning to surprise her on October 7th. Now I can surprise her tonight instead!
It would be incredible stupid if they would punish paying customers because of their employees fucked up.I know, but it could've been an error or glitch. It's not supposed to release until October 7. Never know how Nintendo takes these kind of things.
Neither games are RPG,because Nintendo gives zero fucks about the TTYD fans.Sticker Star has been playable for months though.
...Oh right it's a New! Mario RPG.

Hahaha that's amazing.
Could Nintendo do something about this actually? Just curious. (Like undertaking legal action or...) I think it's a hilarious fuck up though.
how would they litigate this
