???Why would you post the picture of a launch bundle at the launch prize?

Look at the boxart. The picture in the OP has the NTSC one.

Oh, yeah. So the US did not have this bundle at launch? I think they would have liked it over there^^

I think if Nintendo land were in the box there would be a visible print of the game on it.



Ongoing bet with think-man: He wins if MH4 releases in any shape or form on PSV in 2013, I win if it doesn't.

Nope was EU exclusive.

AFAIR the distribution was 60% Nintendo Land bundle, 30% ZombiU bundle and 10% Basic SKU in the UK at launch and 70% Nintendo Land bundle/30% Basic SKU in the US at launch.

Hmm, strange decision. I think the ZombiU bundle would have done pretty well in the US, it really offered some great value for its price. I'd probably gotten it if I hadn't already invited some friends to come over and play Nintendoland day-1^^



I could be wrong but this the first time I've seen a non-Nintendo game bundled with a Nintendo console in North America.

I would think that too. 

Seems like that idea has been thrown out.

eh I think Nintendo knew that they had enough pre-orders and a ZombiU bundle at launch would have made the shipping situation only worse. Adding to that they knew that ZombiU would do relatively well there, so with such a bundle they could have lost some revenue, due to missing ZombiU stand alone sales and due to giving Ubisoft their part of the revenue from the bundles.



I really do wonder why the ZombiU bundle only went to Europe. Japan had the Monster Hunter bundle so that was taken care of, but North America had no real game bundle?



I've still got my wonderful zombiu WiiU box it came in :)
