Video game publisher Capcom and Nintendo announce that they are collaborating to launch a special blue 3DS handheld with a Monster hunter 4 theme for the Japanese market on November 7.

The box includes the new hardware, the game and a 4 GB SD card, according to Gematsu.

The price tag of the package is 19,800 yen, which is a little over 200 dollars (155 Euro) at current exchange rates.

Nintendo is not saying whether the Monster Hunter 4 blue 3DS will also be launched in Europe and in North America at some point in the near future.

Since it was launched, the new Capcom title has managed to sell more than 3 million copies.

The bundle is launched just before the holiday shopping season and will probably give the 3DS an even bigger lead in the weekly charts compiled by Media Create.
