Game is available to play on Switch (Stats for pre-order bonuses and other stuff)
Gonna make this simple, the preorder bonuses are:
Pangalactic Federation Longsword (130 ATK, +10% ATK factor)
Forest Knucles (90 ATK, 15 INT +10% INT factor
Sunrise Ring (10% HP, MP and depletion of enemy sheilds)
The consumables, 20 Mixed Berries (15% HP and MP recovery, 20 Resurrection Potions (Revive ALL party members at 5% HP and MP)

There is also an Achievement section in the main menu that tracks across all games, and has a bunch of hidden ones.
One of the achievements is to free the entire voice gallery, so we get that back too :D

It doesn't appear that any of the pre-order items are included in the item encyclopaedia.

There are also a LOT of challenge missions, so have fun filling those out. It also appears that you get Fortune from completing the level 1-10 monsters of the Devil's Aria... what is that? Silver Trumpet songs?

Also you start with all skills, so no need to run to Herlie to get the skills for Pickpocket

Do the achievements transfer from demo to main game? Like if you met the condition to unlock specific achievement on demo, will it unlock instantly when you play the main game?

It certainly seems so, altho achievements seem to be story based so you will only have the first couple. I have the one for starting as rena and claude so it certainly must track between saves.

Yup, gave me the option as soon as I loaded the game, and transferred all of my three saves

About what point in the game do you find gear equal to those weapons.

I think just after the demo. You can get Flame Sword in Celine's hometown, 160 ATK with fire element.

So love that switch got a midnight release...I've already been playing for about 3 hrs, and I'm loving it so far. Also..what a gorgeous version of 2.5d.

Woohoo!

when i was a kid

i would only get non-official memory cards because they were cheaper and i was a kid

i remember having a yellow memory card that would somehow alter my saves

On SO2 i remember having a totally different voice screen, i wish i still had that memory card.

You can actually walk there and buy it as soon as you get on the world map. Just its expesive and the battles near that town are a lot tougher than by Kross So avoid them, which is much easier in the remake since the enemies show up on the map and aren't totally random encounters.

So for people complaining about the pre order items they're honestly not worth it. I mean if you play on the highest difficulty they're useful in the beginning but other than that they're useless
