Nintendo removes mention of pre-order info from the Game & Watch Super Mario Bros. website

These are going to be tough to track down

GN Version 5.0

The Game & Watch Super Mario Bros. is another part of Nintendo's Super Mario Bros. 35th anniversary plans, and it's sure to be in limited supply. Fans have been keeping tabs on the official hub page for the project, wondering when they can jump in on a pre-order. The page originally included a mention of pre-order info coming soon, but that mention has vanished.

The site still says Game & Watch Super Mario Bros. is launching on Nov. 13th, 2020, but the removal of the pre-order blurb has many worried that units are just going to pop up on various retailer websites at a random time. That would certainly make it hard for fans to track it down, but I guess it would also stop scalpers from using bots to snag orders. Well...it would at least slow them down for a bit.
