If you had your eye on either the Pokemon Black or White Version of the Nintendo DSi that was available in Japan only, you will no longer have to import it. That’s because Nintendo of America has announced they’ll be selling the DSi units as part of a bundle. Each unit will have Reshiram and Zekrom etched onto the front of the system. Two versions will be available and will come with the same name counterpart of the game. Each bundle will also include a custom Pokemon Nintendo DSi carrying case.
These special edition bundles will launch with Pokemon Black and White on March 6th for $179.99.
I think the idea overall is very nice, the price is decent, and there will most likely be allot of people getting it. It is surely something I am thinking about getting, but that all depends.
Personally, I think they should have released this prier to the 3DS, but since the 3DS will be out first, most people will probably just be buying the 3DS. If the Etched Pokemon Nintendo bundles came out for 3DS, that would make more people want it, but then again the price addition to the already expensive 3DS would end up to be to much for most people.
Looking forward to see what kinds of releases Nintendo has planned for us.
