The pro controller, meanwhile, is styled in the dull maroon and green X of plot-critical character Pyra, with the design of Rex’s sword on the right side.

The art looks great. The very first "metal" case for switch. Hopefully EU get something nice too.

So Japan is getting a variant pretty much..i wonder if the USA "metal case" is actually a steelbook brand item? and if it's a new SWITCH specific sized case? or just a standard disc sized case?

Is it just a error that best buys website says "Collectors Edition"? If im not mistaken, in North America, we simply get the special edition. Isn't the badass CE version with the red case exclusive to Europe?

Pretty sure they messed up like the zelda master edition. Took the US special edition for the image and description. I already messaged to fix the image as well but they ignored me. Awaiting shitstorm to happen again lol

lol good point... I do remember the Zelda one, I was pissed about that one lol the master version was amazing :s we rarely get the good ones...

I hope they don't give us a really crappy one then... I was kind of hopeful since it says that the art can change but what they have described there in the list is exactly what is offered in the U.S one (not even the 200 hundred pages variation in other of the CEs)

We probably getting the same as the europe one. The one with the red box. No hardcover hardbook though but we get a steelbook instead of metal case.

I hope you are wrong, haha but let me know if you get any info from them :) I do think the book looks so much better in the NA version. Glad to know there is a fellow Aussie in the forum :)

Is EU the only one with a proper Steelbook? NA says "metal case"?
