Those who pick up an eShop download code for Pikmin 3 from retailer GAME can download the game right now.
That’s effectively granting early access as the game doesn’t officially arrive until in the UK until midnight tonight. Nintendo Life (http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2013/07/gamers_in_europe_can_download_pikmin_3_now_by_pick ing_up_a_code_from_game) reports that these codes were discovered to work on the eShop yesterday.
Best of all, a digital Pikmin 3 code from game costs just £34.99 whereas downloading the title through the eShop costs £39.99. Plus those who Pikmin 3 digitally are entitled to a 30 per cent discount on upcoming Wii U title The Wonderful 101.
Be warned though – MCV has heard tales of very slow downloading on the eShop at present, so even if you purchased a code right now there’s a chance you might not have your hands on the title until midnight.
