Not that amazing. That's considered expensive! A Wii title goes for $49 in America!

The premium black bundle has no price on Amazon UK at the moment. Where did you get that price from ? Do you have a link ?

The prices will eventually settle down and possibly even go lower as they all compete. Unlike Japan and the US Nintendo can't set prices in the EU so it's a question of what price the majority of retailers are able to sell it at. That said with the PS Vita Amazon had the best value bundles. If they do I may switch my preorder from GAME.

MCV, Amazon has listed the price and it's £300 for premium however, the zombiu bundle is weird. Game says it comes with Nintendo land ontop of Zombi U and the pro controller.

That's because GAME is selling the black premium bundle which includes Nintendoland along with Zombie U and the pro controller as additional included items. It's essentially a retailer specific bundle being offered by them. I haven't seen any other UK retailers offer the same bundle combination yet although they may do.

Edit: I take back what I said. Looking back at the Nintendo Direct it seems like there is limited edition bundle for the EU with Zombie U and a pro controller but only GAME is listing it so far in the UK.

Zavii and Shopto have a listing.

[Gamejunkie]

Zavii and Shopto have a listing.

Last I checked they don't indicate the controller pro is included. The question is are they the same as the bundle on GAME's web site.
