XSEED Games is pursuing the release of both a standard edition and a limited edition version of The Last Story in North America this July. It's unknown how similar a limited edition package might be to what was previously made available in Europe, where the game hit shelves this past February. Nintendo, not XSEED, was the game's publisher in that market, and they released a bundle that contained a copy of the game, a steel book case, a soundtrack, and an art book.

Currently, many online retailers, such as Gamestop and Amazon, have The Last Story listed for a July 10 release. XSEED told NWR that they are aiming for a July release but do not have a concrete release date as of this time.

Barring some major problem with the Limited Edition (or a ridiculous price hike), I'm definitely buying that.
There was a Signature here. It's gone now.

I really hope Xseed is doing ok business wise, they really have brought a lot of great stuff to the Wii that would have otherwise been ignored. I'll do my best to get this limited edition!

Yeah, I'm hoping they can make this Limited Edition work because I'm DEFINITELY stoked for this game. They didn't say it was confirmed yet. T-T

A glooming peace this morning with it brings;
The sun, for sorrow, will not show his head:
Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things;
Some shall be pardon'd, and some punished:
For never was a story of more woe
Than this of Sega and her Mashiro.

If this bonus material is the same stuff that was included with the European limited edition then it's all high quality and worth springing for.  The art book is very nice, and while the music isn't as good as Xenoblade it's still a nice (if short) soundtrack CD.

I hope they make it work. I would like to have the extras the limited edition offers. The freebie art book for Xenoblade is surprisingly nicer than its peers.

I held off on the Euro version just for this, so I hope they deliver.

This is bad timing for me, I'll be going on vacation in July and I need to make sure I have enough money to do everything that I want to do. I wonder how many of these they will make...
