Heads Up, Norway Got a Special Nintendo DS Bundle Pack

Bundle!Have you ever heard of the Kenya song and accompanying flash animation? It goes, "Where can you see lions/ Only in Kenya!/Come to Kenya, we got lions!/ Forget Norway!" Well, Norway got pissed, so they got something of their own: Nintendo DS Bundle Packs.

Where can you buy DS Packs?
Only in Norway!
Come to Norway, we got DS Packs!
Forget Kenya!

Moving on... (how much more deranged can QJ get, right? We might as well continue.) The Bundle Pack includes a Black DS Lite, New Super Mario Bros., and NES Classic Super Mario Bros. Oh! And a box! There might be more to the bundle, such as lions and tigers from Kenya, but we don't know anyone who knows Norwegian, and no one's made a program to translate Norwegian into English, so if you do happen to know something we're missing from the bundle, tell us.

The bundle is currently priced at 1,595 Norwegian Kroners (around $245). If you live there, now would be a good time to get one. It's only too bad they didn't add Pocket Monsters into the bundle, because then Norwegians could get their heads out of that Kenya song by killing virtual lions and tigers.



Update:

According to a tip from Christoffer "Dofty from Norway" Knutsen (paraphrased from his translation, of course), the site says that it's been 20 years since the introduction of the NES to Norway, which explains the Super Mario fixation of the bundle. The site also says that buying the items individually would cost around 2000 Kroners (around $305-310). There are limited stocks available so you can get ahead of the rush by preordering it from the site, and the official release will be sometime in the next two weeks. Thanks Dofty!

You don't kill in Pocket Monsters, and what Pocket Monsters are based on Lions and Tigers anyway?
