Capcom and Nintendo of America have teamed up to bring Monster Hunter fans a new bundle to look forward to. Monster Hunter Tri will be available bundled with the anticipated new Classic Controller Pro for the Wii across North America this April for $59.99.
The Classic Controller Pro, which plugs directly into the Wii Remote, features a more traditional control configuration, including a second row of shoulder buttons and ergonomic grips. Until now it was only available in Japan.
Gamers that buy the Monster Hunter Tri bundle will receive a black controller. However, the controller will be available in black and white separately for $19.99, while the game will cost $49.99 without the controller.
Monster Hunter Tri has been slaying the Japanese market, selling 520 000 units in its first week of release. The series has sold more than 11 million copies worldwide. For more information about Monster Hunter Tri don’t forget to check out our previous coverage.
“Monster Hunter Tri has made a huge splash in the Japanese market, and we’re confident the bundle with the Classic Controller Pro will give fans in North America plenty to get excited about,” said Steve Singer, Nintendo of America’s vice president of Licensing.
“Gamers of all kinds enjoy playing games on Wii. Monster Hunter Tri delivers an incredible new experience on Wii, while the Classic Controller Pro gives players even more control options for their favorite Wii games.”
