Skyward Sword Limited Edition Bundle

Nintendo officially announced that a special bundle package will be released for The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. This bundle will be available at launch (November 20th) and it will include the game itself and a Gold Wii Remote Plus (as seen at E3 2011). As another bonus anyone who buys an initial-production copy of the game (either separately or as part of the bundle) will get a free The Legend of Zelda Symphony Concert CD that will feature "select orchestral arrangements of iconic music spanning the history of the franchise which will be performed at The Legend of Zelda 25th Anniversary Symphony Concert performances". The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword will be sold for $49.99 while the bundle will carry a $69.99 price tag. This isn't too bad considering you will be purchasing a limited edition gold Wii Remote Plus for just $20 (while a regular Wii Remote Plus is $40).


REDMOND, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Leaves won't be the only things turning gold this fall as Nintendo prepares to launch an extraordinary lineup of games for its Wii™, Nintendo 3DS™ and Nintendo DS™ game systems. At a recent meeting of GameStop retail store managers from across the United States, Nintendo of America's executive vice president of Sales & Marketing Scott Moffitt revealed new details about upcoming releases for several fan-favorite franchises:

A special limited-edition The Legend of Zelda™: Skyward Sword bundle containing the game and a gold* Wii Remote™ Plus controller will be available when the game launches on Nov. 20.

Also for The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, every copy in the initial production of the game will come packaged with a special music CD featuring orchestral arrangements of select songs that will be performed at The Legend of Zelda 25th Anniversary Symphony Concert.

"Nintendo has something for you this fall, no matter what type of gamer you are, no matter what Nintendo system you're playing," said Moffitt. "Whether you're looking for a world-spanning epic like The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, the pick-up-and-play puzzle fun of Tetris: Axis or the mind-bending adventure of Professor Layton and the Last Specter, we've got you covered."

The limited-edition gold controller bundle for The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword will be offered at a suggested retail price of $69.99. The game will also be sold separately at a suggested retail price of $49.99, though the gold controller will only be available as part of the special bundle. As an additional 25th anniversary treat for fans who purchase the game early, every copy in the initial production, whether sold by itself or as a part of the limited-edition bundle, will come with a free CD featuring select orchestral arrangements of iconic music spanning the history of the franchise which will be performed at The Legend of Zelda 25th Anniversary Symphony Concert performances in October 2011.
