Microsoft Japan to Bundle Ace Combat and Katamari Damacy with 360

3

Microsoft Japan announced today the latest in its Value Pack series of hardware/software bundles. Set for November 6 release, the new pack will include Ace Combat 6 and Beautiful Katamari Damacy, along with a 60 gigabyte Standard Model 360 system. All this will sell for the current 29,800 price point of the 60 gigabyte system on its own.

---------------------

I hope the upcoming bundles (this one and the Last Remnant bundle) will hekp the Xbox360 to sell well in Japan. MS is really working hard to get Japanese gamers attention.

*edit* it costs $299 by the way.

Imagine not having GamePass on your console...

Yeah I'm surprised they haven't done a Blue Dragon/Lost Odyssey value bundle.

Hmm, Japan DOES love their Katamari and AC. Though they'd be better off bundling Tales and IU, or some combination of RPGs, this will help them keep some momentum over the holidays.
