Super Mario Galaxy 2 Limited Edition
Grumbleduke:
What is the Limited Edition like for the U.S? I had not opened the game until today and it seems that they have sent me the 'L.E' version. This comes in a 'Money Box' decked out like a standard Wii case (but twice as thick). Opening that, there is a cardboard version of case inside with a blurb saying "Tutorial DVD included, Learn how to play the game", in the top left corner. Opening the cardboard box reveals the 'proper' white plastic game case and a cardboard sleeve (looks like the ones AOL used to give away to me ;)) with the DVD plus something else (dont want to break its seal) AND a poster detailing all the moves. Seems a bit of a packing overkill to me, the cardboard box and plastic case are almost identicle. The whole thing has a 'russian doll' type effect when opening it. Just wondered whever the U.S was the same or if they came up with something different for you chaps.
Doom:
Nope, that's the standard version for you guys. The USA just got a normal Wii case and full color disc (the standard for the past year or so).
They thought that the European region needed a tutorial DVD included with the game. I have no idea why.

Last paragraph.
(In the process of responding to this thread, almost done) Had you not told me about it, I would have never found it.
Grumbleduke:
Mastering the art of Mario is obviously more tricky for Euros, Ozzies and Japanese people. ;) The pack states that the DVD is 24 mins. That's a pretty long tut to sit through! After doing a little diggiing, it seems the money tin is a limited release gift for the E.U only. Better be carefull with it then, may be worth something one day.

As far as I know, the only special edition we've got here in the US is a hardcover strategy guide. Then again my friend could have just gotten that as a preorder bonus, I'm not sure.
