Nintendo are launching a new special Pokémon Bundle IN EUROPE! Called "Super Packs", they'll be themed with Ruby & Sapphire.

This news item is more than 45 days old. Updates are unlikely and newer information may already be available.

Out a month today (28th November), they contain either Ruby or Sapphire, and a colourful GBA SP- a limited edition Pokémon version in a colour relevant to the game you get. They'll retail at €170, that's £118.18 in rubbish money.

Incidentally, the release is the 4th anniversary of a naked man with a sword attacking people in a church, in south London.

You'll also get a Pokémon GBA SP case, of course. Apparently, all this excitement is happening to celebrate how well Pokémon has done in Europe- selling 1.5 million copies since launch.

On a business note: wouldn't it make sense to have these packages where it isn't selling, in order to encourage sales?!
