UPDATE: This applies to Europe as well.

Nintendo has announced a special campaign for Japanese customers planning to pre-load Pokemon Let’s GO Pikachu/Eevee on the Nintendo Switch eShop.

From November 1 to November 18, 2018 11:59pm JST, customers who purchase Pokemon Let’s GO Pikachu or Pokemon Let’s GO Eevee from the Nintendo eShop will receive double the amount of Gold Points on My Nintendo.

The promotion also applies to customers who redeem a download code for either game within the duration of the campaign. In fact, you can purchase the digital versions of Pokemon Let’s GO Pikachu/Eevee at a lower price on Amazon Japan and receive double Gold Points.

The extra Gold Points will be distributed to customers from November 19, 2018. A similar promotion is also underway for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

Keep in mind this promotion hasn’t been announced outside Japan but we’ll update you once we have more information.

Thanks, Brandon.
