Captain Toad Treasure Tracker on sale in the UK - two weaks early

[RhinoK]

Captain Toad Treasure Tracker was originally planned for a January 2nd 2015 release date, but has now been changed to Monday December 21st 2014.
It's also on sale in the retailer GAME.

First they pushed Super Smash Bros for Wii U back a week early and now Captain Toad Treasure Tracker. I suppose it only makes sense that it'd be here on time for Christmas.

why did you say weaks?? do some countries do that or something?

No. It is just a grammatical error. The OP probably did not check it before they posted as the 21st of December is a Sunday. XD

They probably didn't have a reason to release it any later.


I don't know exactly why UK gets things so much later in the first place (Localisation maybe?) but maybe they had it done quicker than expected and don't see the need to hold it until next year when they can release it now.

It's only the UK, though. The rest of Europe doesn't get it two weeks early, even though most of them just get the English version (like here).

Sunday 21st or Monday 22nd? :-]

 

[Jarrad]

most probably monday, as I doubt it would be released on a sunday, since most private businesses are closed then.

I'm glad we get it earlier than other countries.
Waiting an entire week for omega ruby and alpha sapphire was torture. Not to mention having things spoilt by people over the pond! Damn you, Americarnos!

True.


There must be some reason though. I don't see why they would release it early in the UK "just because".

In my defence, the article linked above says Monday 21st

Despite not pre-ordering it, I got a copy of Captain Toad Treasure Tracker on Monday when it first released.
