It might depend on country. I thought the same, but here in the UK, the Star Fox Guard bundle is exclusive to GAME. Maybe check the description and do a google to see what the deal is in North America.


I got Starfox with Guard from Nintendo's online store.

They're normally a better deal than game, or at least more reliable than Game are.

They generally have a limited quantity of any supposed 'GAME exclusive' at some point, but you need to keep your eye open on it.

From my understanding, at least in North America, all first print releases of Starfox Zero include a retail copy of Starfox Guard. If someone has seen otherwise, please correct me.

This was my understanding. I wanna say I heard it in a Nintendo direct.

I read it on either NintendoLife or NintendoEnthusiast, but they post summaries of the Nintendo Directs, so I probably heard it second-hand from a Nintendo Direct. :lol:

That's probably why I got confused! I had no idea there was some exclusivity bullshit here in the UK/Europe.

I didn't realize folks were talking about Europe. It appears in the US all of the first released copies come with Guard.

I'd ask why Nintendo hates Europe, but at least we got a physical version of Project Zero: Maiden of Blackwater :P

Oh shut up, Nintendo always treats yall better these days. :lol:

Yall got a physical release of Project Zero, yall got Project Zero 2: Wii Edition (we didn't even get that digitally), yall get an amiibo bundle for Kirby Robobot, yall got better Club Nintendo rewards, and (if memory serves) yall got a physical release of Senran Kagura Burst. Also yall got more than three and a half copies of Devil's Third.

All true. But it's to make up for us not getting Chrono Trigger, Earthbound, Final Fantasy VI, Mario RPG and so on and so on, back in the SNES days :P
