DZComposer Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 If any of you can get me one of these flight packs, I will reimburse your purchase and shipping expenses once I receive it: It's only available today, though, and only at the Nintendo NY (Nintendo World) store in NYC. If there is anything noteworthy on it, I will scan it for SF-O, so you're not just helping me, you're potentially helping SF-O get a piece of exclusive content. They're also doing a big Star Fox Launch Weekend this weekend, and I already know that the Star Fox Muppets are at the store. So a few photos of the event for SF-O to post would be appreciated as well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Ain't Falco Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 If we don't have anyone in New York that can get one, I'm a bit of an obsessive collector, and would be happy to snag a second one when I inevitably pick one up for my collection (which will likely be whenever people start flipping them on eBay). If I can't get a second one, if it would be helpful, I could scan whatever I wind up with. Just a backup, here, in case we can't get one through more normal means.

Mr. Krystal Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 I'm working on obtaining them myself too. If I manage to get them, I will of course scan them for everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrypticQuery Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 I can't get out there today since I work late, but I will be able to get there before the store's opening time tomorrow morning. If they are still available I'll be sure to get one for you, as well as the poster that they were offering. I can guarantee photos of how the store is set up for sure though.

And so; the two warriors settled out. Each to their own path to find the treasure at the end of their road. What they fail to realize at this moment in time is that it isn't the reward that will leave it's mark, but the journey they now step foot in. Godspeed you magnificent bastards. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrypticQuery Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 I stopped by at the opening of the store this morning and they had some left over. Strict limits per customers though. I managed to snag one for you DZ, along with the poster and a few photos of the store. I was also able to play the demo and got to sit in the arwing cockpit model while doing so - it was great. Will post further once I get back home. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrypticQuery Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Mission Accomplished! The bundles were limited to one per customer, but thankfully a friend was able to accompany me and I managed to secure two. The poster can be seen at the Twitter link below, and I haven't opened the envelope just yet. https://twitter.com/NintendoNYC/status/723184179215659009 The Arwing pin and patch were furnished to me for playing the demo in the store's mock-cockpit setup (photos further down). I was unfortunately unable to obtain duplicates of these two pieces since my friend had to leave early. Curiously enough, I was the only person to actually beat the demo up until that point. I still haven't purchased a Wii U yet, though admittedly now I am sorely tempted. ---- Photo Gallery   Store Exterior ----- Merchandise ----- StarFox and Miyamoto "Nuppets" ----- StarFox Display Items ----- Cockpit Setup (No, I have no idea who the people in the photos are. I can say that playing in that seat and having such a large screen was pretty awesome though.)   4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here! The envelopes are actually sealed shut with some sort of adhesive. I'm debating whether or not I should just cut the top off or try to steam it open to avoid having to mangle the envelope, but that's a decision for after DZ is able to scan and post the contents. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
