Nintendo reveals digital incentive for New Super Mario Bros 2

MCV Staff 23rd July 2012 Retail

New Super Mario Bros 2 will be the first Nintendo game to get a simultaneous digital and retail release – and Nintendo wants its customer base to experiment.

All Nintendo games come with a Club Nintendo Coins card that can be redeemed against goodies. The standard Coins reward for a boxed game is currently 50 Coins.

However, those who choose who buy NSMB2 over Wi-Fi rather than the shop counter will be rewarded with 100 Coins.

The deal has so far only been announced for the US market.

New Super Mario Bros 2 will be released in the UK on August 17th.
