So I log into the store looking for a game for myself and the gf to play. I notice this big banner advertising Mario Kart 8 DLC. "Fantastic!" I think to myself, the girlfriend agrees $11.99 is a steal for 16 new courses among other things. The big button says "PURCHASE NOW" which leads me to believe this content is available now. I purchase, I download, I log into Mario Kart super excited aaaaaand "this content has been pre-ordered. Come back when it's released". *** do you mean "pre-ordered"? I go back into the store. End of November and March... You have got to be kidding me.
*** Nintendo. That is bull and you know it. Your only attempt to let me know I was merely pre ordering this content was some fine print writing that is nearly the same colour as the stores background color so it blends in incredibly well. Why did the button not say "pre-order" instead of "purchase now"? Seriously this is complete ****. Now I am sitting on purchased content that isn't even out for 6 or 7 months. All your competitors are calling this a "season pass" and they all let you know straight up front that you are buying future content.
