DS Lite: SD Gundam edition

As if packing 500 characters, 300 mobile suits, and over 120 stages from 15 different Gundam series wasn’t fan service enough, Bandai Namco released a special edition Gundam DS Lite.

As a promotion for the SD Gundam G Generation: Crossdrive game, it was packaged with a limited edition RX-93 Nu Gundam Nintendo DS Lite.  This package was released last August 9, 2007 and was sold for 21,840 yen (USD$176).

The customized, crystal-white handheld features the same red branding seen on Amuro Ray’s Rx-93 Nu Gundam in the animated film, Mobile Suit Gundam: Char’s Counterattack.

The Crossdrive Gundam game even topped the sales chart in Japan. For the week ending August 12, 2007, it sold close to 138,000 units.
