When Super Mario 3D All Stars Announced last week, Nintendo made it very clear that it would be “Limited release“.
Now, ret online retailer Base.com (based in the UK) has apparently been forced to “cancel all orders” because Nintendo and its distributors in the region can make no guarantee that more stock will be available once it is released.
Reset Era user ‘GeoBros’ shared a message he recently received from Base, while also considering how he was “one of the first buyers there” and ordered the game on September 4 (the day after the game was announced).
“We have been informed about the allocation of Super Mario 3D All-Stars (Nintendo Switch) and it is very short. This is very disappointing and we are very sad to tell you that we have fulfilled you. Unable to give us any assurances that more stock will be available after the release of Nintendo and their UK distributor, we have made the regrettable decision to cancel all orders. “
It is worth noting that the physical pre-order is still available elsewhere in the UK. There is also a digital version.
This follows last weekend when scalpers were already found trying to resell their own copies of the game on eBay, with the 3-in-1 collection in the news becoming the second best-selling game of the year on Amazon. .
