GameStop has revealed the box design for Mega Man Zero Collection on its preorder page. It features a commanding shot of Zero with Copy X embedded in the Z-Sabre's blade while Ciel looks onwards. All in all, it's pretty much the same design as the Japanese package, which is by no means a bad thing. GameStop's pre-order page also says the game will ship June 8th for $29.99, as does Amazon. Uncertain if the date is official, so it's likely tentative for the time being.
Thanks for the tips, Sarge.
$29.99, huh? That's exactly how much the games cost in Nintendo's New Play Control! series.
ReplyDelete@Krazy: What are you trying to imply here? >_>
ReplyDeleteBut anyways, all that aside, that's pretty freaking cheap.
Most other DS games tend to be priced at around $35 on launch, with the Square Enix tax pushing some of them up to $40 or higher.
It's probably cheaper than normal DS games since it is pretty much a re-release. I know I wouldn't pay $40 for some "old" games, and when I mean old I just mean already released in the past. It would be kind of a rip-off if it were any higher... Plus they are probably trying to boost sales with the low price tag.

ReplyDeleteNice Box art thats a different Copy X there 1 month to go
ReplyDeleteSeening the art box is making me exited I hope theres are more special features in the game.

ReplyDeleteIt's usually just first-part Nintendo releases that are priced that high when they launch. Aside from the Square Enix tax, of course. Most other third-party games seem to launch at $30, though... sometimes even $25.
The $30 MSRP for Zero Collection doesn't surprise me. Charging any more than that for a collection of four GBA games with very little (if anything, really) added would be a tough sell, even if they are great games.
In any case, that box art is PURE SEX. Would have preferred to see Original X on there in an heroic/poignant fashion instead of Copy X, though.
I don't know where your all from, but here in PA DS games have always been $29.99 since release of the handheld.
ReplyDeleteInstant-import for me! No way am I missing out on MegaMan Zero again! (I know I could pirate it, but this game is worth it!)
ReplyDeletecool box art can't wait!
ReplyDelete@Alilatis:
ReplyDeleteI'm not implying anything. I was just simply stating that the two prices were the same. That's all.
at least american DS boxarts don't look as ugly as gameboy's one compared to the original boxarts.. not bad, not bad
