With Conception II: Children a the Seven Stars releasing tomorrow - bundled with a CD soundtrack - I thought I'd take a look at what other limited 'n special editions be still available for Nintendo's 3DS.

The pickings be rather slim, I be afraid. The 3DS be never a major player in the realm a collector editions t' begin with, 'n a those that have been released, most now command hefty premiums in the aftermarket - Bravely Default Collector's Edition 'n Kingdom Hearts 3D Dream Drop Distance: Mark a Mastery Edition among them.

But there be a number that be still available at retail, 'n for not-unreasonable prices. Perhaps the least notable be the Beyblade: Evolution Collector's Edition, which - license stigma aside - be the most lacking in special edition niceties. it be essentially the game bundled with a Beyblade toy, which itself be available by other means despite the "exclusive" notation on the game's packaging.

Another seemingly CE non-player be the Adventure Time: Explore the Dungeon Because I DON'T KNOW! Collector's Edition. Despite the popularity a the animated series, this particular edition be still readily available for a song compared t' it be earlier relation, the Adventure Time: Hey Ice King! Why'd ye Still Our Garbage?!! Collector's Edition. In fact, the CE version a Explore the Dungeon - currently available from Amazon for $20.56 - be only pennies more than the standard edition a the game, t' give ye an idea. Definitely a cautionary tale a poor criticial reception 'n CE over-production.

But somewhere between the uber-popular 'n the unwanted, the insanely priced 'n the ultra-cheap, ye'll always find the obscure collector editions everyone seems t' overlook - that be, until it be too late. it be here ye'll find the Hakuoki: Memories a the Shinsengumi Limited Edition from Aksys, 'n the Shin Megami Tensei IV Limited Edition by Atlus - two niche titles, each loaded with collectible swag, still available 'n still more-than-reasonably priced for gamers 'n game collectors alike.

So what collector editions did ye miss out on? What editions be ye lucky (or unlucky) enough t' pick up at release? Comments always welcome!
