There’s a New Years tradition in Japan where stores take unsold merchandise and stuff into grab bags called fukubukuro. Pick up one of these and you can get a bunch of stuff at a discount. The catch is you don’t know what you bought until you open the lucky bag.
We know what’s inside Enterking’s Wii complete fukubukuro though. This New Year’s gift bag contains a Wii and 408 games, a copy of every single Wii game released in Japan. Limited editions and budget re-releases like the Everyone’s Recommendation selection are not included in the bundle.
The games are secondhand, although Enterking says they may include some sealed games too. According to the retailer, the total value of all the items is 2,300,000 yen ($27,367). Enterking is offering the bundle for 1,000,000 yen ($11,900), but you’ll need luck on your side to get it. Between January 1st and 3rd, people interested in the bundle can sign up for a raffle at an Enterking store. The lucky winner will be able to buy the Wii complete fukubukuro bundle.
