The Sugoi Oppai Fans Edition of Arcana Heart 3 contains the following:
The Limited Edition of Arcana Heart 3:
- The original, 144 page Japanese Arcana Heart 3 Artbook
- Arcana Heart 3 Official Soundtrack (exclusive to this Limited Edition set)
- 12 character guide cards
Also included is a Mei Fang Super 3D Boobie Mouse mat
Availability:
The Sugoi Oppai Fans Edition can only be purchased from the Blazblue store in the UK, the store does ship worldwide.
This Edition is restricted to 500 units total, however the spilt is not 250 for each platform (PS3 and Xbox 360).
As the only difference between this edition and normal limited Edition is the unique mouse pad, the mouse mat is shipped along side the limited edition rather than a complete single box. This means that there will be a uneven spilt between the two platforms.
A Limited Edition for Arcana Hearts 3 has recently been outed by ShopTo.net via Twitter for the UK X360 & PS3!
PS3 - http://www.shopto.net/PS3/VIDEO%20GA...20Edition.html
X360 - http://www.shopto.net/XBOX%20360/VID...20Edition.html
* Original 144 page Japanese art book.
* Official Arcana Heart soundtrack CD.
* 12 exclusive Arcana Heart character guide cards.
They have it listed for £35.84, and at the moment they do not seem to have a standard version available to pre-order
However, GAME seem to have a standard version, but no LE, so there's no telling whether this will be the only version available upon launch, or whether these sites have yet to update their listings
Nice I will contact Pcube to see if they will be doing another special collector's bundle like the Blazblue limited bundle.
Nice find, will add to database.
I would much like another limited numbered Zen United CE if possible, if they're prepared to create something as beautiful as the Guilty Gear XX Accent Core package for this!
I like how they seem to learn what us collectors want based on previous CE's. The GG XX ^ Core Plus set was far superior to the BlazBlue: Continuum Shift package, and much more nicely presented!
Added the following:
PAL Limited Edition added for Xbox 360
Region 2 Limited Edition added for PS3
Region 3 Suggoi! Limited Edition added for PS3
Updated description of Suggoi! Limited Edition xbox 360 to include Pre-order bonus, Availability and Japanese title.
I agree that Zen United's postage fees are ridiculously high. If the items were being sent from Asia, I could understand it, but they're being shipped from within the UK! (Bristol I believe)
Ok I got this reply back from Pqube:
The limited edition should be widely available from all good retailers - but I have heard that The hut have taken a large quaintly of them.
As for the numbers we are producing, I cannot say how many it is, but it is truly limited (unlike some Halo limited editions which are still available at retail!).
Once these packs have gone that will be it!
Hope that helps,
Have yet to see this LE appear on the GAME website, however, HMV have it listed alongside the standard version:
SEARCH RESULT - http://hmv.com/hmvweb/simpleMultiSea...bmitSearch.y=0
PS3 - http://hmv.com/hmvweb/displayProduct...1;-1&sku=75517
X360 - http://hmv.com/hmvweb/displayProduct...1;-1&sku=75522
The standard version is priced at £34.99 on the HMV website, whereas it is considerably lower at only £19.99 on the GAME website
The LE is priced at £39.99 on the HMV site, so I think I will wait and see what the GAME price will be if / when they add it to their listings
Ok I requested if he could be a bit more specific about the numbers.
This is what he said:
Cannot give you final numbers, but across both 360 and PS3 it is going to be less than 10,000 in total.
Hope that helps,
Well in my experience, X360 versions are usually the more popular, so I would guess that the split is not 5,000 / 5,000, and might be uneven in favour of the X360, therefore making the PS3 versions technically more rare. However, if the X360 is the version more in demand then this may become the more sought after version in the near future
And 10,000 split between two consoles isn't all that much at all, considering the Fallout: New Vegas CE didn't have many more copies between the X360 and PS3, and those were numbered
I don't know why they can't give exact details regarding numbers though - You'd think that announcing low numbers would entice punters to get in quick and pre-order, rather than have them believe the CE will be more abundant than it actually is. Numbering CE's will always encourage sales...
In the past we can see that the Xbox 360 version is the one most in demand, but JRPG are likely to be in more demand for the PS3. Especially a series that be a Playstation exclusive.
I too was surprised they were unable to give specific numbers, it could be a legal issue with the developer.
Can now be pre-ordered at play.com for £34.99, personally I wouldn't bother with them. but if you do:
Arcana Heart 3 Limited Edition UK PAL X360 & PS3 @ Play.com £34.99
GAME are still lagging behind with no listing for this CE, even though almost everyone else has it up for pre-order...
It's a wonder why they're the biggest game retail chain really, when they let their competition get ahead of them by listing newly annouced items days and sometimes weeks ahead!
^ Looks like a job for twitter, wonder if they will respond.
What's the betting that it will magically appear later today?
