Giving the people what they want.
Capcom and Nintendo sure do like money.
There's no doubt that the newfangled black Wii will light up the charts when it hits Japan. And it wouldn't be much of a stretch to predict that Monster Hunter 3 will print money, too.
Capcom's planned bundle must surely be some kind of impending supernova then, because this much star power is sure to light up the charts. Out on August 1, the bundle will include a black Wii, a black Classic Controller Pro and of course a copy of the game for 33,000 yen, or about $342 American money. Bundles with a copy of the game and a Classic Controller Pro are also planned for that day.
It'll be interesting to see the sales of this bundle versus only the hardware when they drop. Which one do you think will come out on top?

Wow, this is really cool! I'm going to pretend I never saw this because I know I'll never be able to have it and that makes me sad!

@WolfRamHeart: Monster Hunter 3 is coming out in the states. I'm sure the black WII will as well.

Oh dear, this might be incentive to finally get a Wii from each region - add it to my UK and US Wiis. I've always wanted a black Wii.

I'm still awestruck by how gorgeous this game looks for a Wii title. Capcom has truly found some incredible ways to push Nintendo's lastest piece of hardware to its limits in providing a visually exceptionally game. Might be the best use of pixel-pushing yet seen on the Wii. How the framerate holds up under it all though... remains to be seen, I suppose.

I just want the bundle with the controller and the game
I doubt the bundles will be coming to the U.S. monster hunter just isn't that popular over here.

I wonder if it is just going to come with the game or with the controller and the game, since I'm perfectly happy with my white Wii. The black wii does look cool though...
