I have no idea how reliable these guys are and they don't name a source for the news or anything, but they're claiming the game will be released on March 15th with MSRPs of $49.99 for the bundle and $39.99 for the game alone:

I'd be very surprised if that was the case considering the game comes bundled with what is supposed to be an improved version of a controller that'll cost you about $90 to import. But if it is that low, it means Konami is confident they can get enough controllers out there to make future...
Nah, I've owned it for years and just happened to have the link bookmarked for some reason. Glad you were able to snag it.
BTW, have you ever read From Hell? It's what got me interested in the Ripper, and is easily one of my favorite books of all time.
The easiest way is to know what games you're looking for and have their product pages bookmarked. Just use Google to find product pages for out of stock items.
It's definitely underrated, but I can understand why people are skeptical about it. After the Nintendo 64, I was in no particular hurry to buy a new Nintendo console either. But then Metroid Prime came along and Circuit City had a great bundle deal and the rest is history. As of right now...
