MGS: Portable Ops Premium and KonamiStyle Packs at Play-Asia

Because people on this side of the Pacific want stuff that comes out only for those on the other side of the ocean, like the Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops Premium and KonamiStyle Packs, you will be happy to know that Play-Asia will have them on December 21. The sad part, however, is that the thing costs around US$ 349.00 (for Premium) or US$ 449.00 (KonamiStyle), PLUS shipping and handling, to get this pack across the Pacific and into your hands.

As a recap: in both the limited edition and premium bundles, you get the game itself, and a PSP with a camo skin lovingly crafted by the Big Boss himself. He killed snakes and stripped them bare with his own teeth to make these PSP console camouflage (a.k.a. PSP-1000CA) skins (and if you believed that, it’s time to put down that snake you’re eating).

If you’re ordering the Premium Pack, you get a basic, though MPO-inspired, PSP case and strap to strangle enemy soldiers with keep your PSP clean with. Pitch over an extra hundred for the KonamiStyle bundle and you get the limited-edition “Skin of a Warrior” PSP case and “Tail of a Killer” PSP strap, and a limited-edition certificate proudly proclaiming you as the owner of a limited-edition KonamiStyle PSP and MPO. And maybe the Tail of a Killer could be used to kill enemy soldeirs with on your cellphone, too.

Anyway, to round out the package, you also get three MPO pins to display your MPO pride. No, there’s no GPS included here – you have to get that separately. Find the Premium Pack at this link, and the KonamiStyle pack by clicking here.
