Trivia
- Due to a Nintendo eShop error, European players were able to download and obtain the purchase bonus without having to purchase the DLC itself. In response, Nintendo announced that players would be allowed to keep the equipment until the release of Wave 1, but would need to purchase the DLC afterwards to continue using them.[1]
