Monster Hunter 3 was the Japanese Wii's first software bundle (Wii Sports is not bundled there). It definitely won't be the last! Today, Koei and Namco Bandai announced bundles of their own.
Namco Bandai will be bundling Tales of Graces with a standard white Wii system and a white Classic Controller Pro. Pricing for the bundle is set at 27,800 yen, or a 1,500 yen savings over buying everything separately. The game will sell on its own for 7,329 yen. Yes, they pay a lot for their RPGs over there.
Koei took some of the spotlight for itself with the announcement of a bundle that combines Samurai Warriors 3 with a standard black Wii and a special Samurai Warriors 3-themed Classic Controller Pro. This is priced at 27,300, also somewhat of a savings over buying everything separately. You'll also get a few bonus goodies that Musou series fans would not want to miss out on.
In addition to the console pack, Samurai Warriors 3 will be available solo, bundled with the special Classic Controller Pro, and as part of a goods-filled Treasure Box. These will be priced, respectively, at 7,140, 8,715, and 11,865 yen. The Treasure Box includes the controller, a mini figure, an original soundtrack, and an art/strategy book. "Treasure Box" releases are a long running tradition for the Dynasty Warriors and Samurai Warriors games in Japan.
Both games are now officially due out in early December. Samurai Warriors 3 arrives on December 3, to be followed by Graces on December 10.
