Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles will be in stores next month, but Japan won’t get the Wii game until January 14, 2010.
Don’t feel too bad for Japan. Capcom is offering two versions of the game there, a stand alone game, and a Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles Collector’s Package.
The collector’s edition includes an arranged soundtrack disc titled "Darkside Symphony”, a DVD with promo footage labeled “Darkside Flashback”, the game, and a reversible cover for 8,390 yen ($91).
It looks expensive compared to how much the game costs here, but the Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles Collector’s Package is only 1,000 yen ($11) more than a vanilla game.
Pre-order Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles or the collector’s edition in Japan and you get a Darkside Report, a booklet with character details, as a bonus.
