The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom can be preordered for just £42.95 at Amazon before its release on September 26. Here's why this is a good deal. Switch games are typically £49.99-£69.99 (depending on the game), and are rarely on sale even after release. So, getting a discount before the game comes out is huge.
With Amazon's preorder price guarantee, you can be sure you're paying the best price at Amazon from now until release, no matter the price changes that may occur (i.e. the listing goes back up to £50). You also don't have to pay a penny on your preorders until the game dispatches closers to release day.
