Today, Zen United has confirmed a special “Life and Hometown” edition for Senran Kagura Burst. Consumers who purchase the package will receive a copy of the game, A3 3D lenticular poster, and a unique t-shirt.
The Life and Hometown edition for Senran Kagura Burst will be sold on FunStock. Pricing is set at £49.99. Only 500 copies will be produced, so it sounds like this could end up being pretty limited.

North American Nintendo Direct will be 41 minutes long
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 21 Comments
Brace yourself for a fairly long Nintendo Direct presentation – at least in North America. The broadcast is expected to last approximately 41 minutes.
My guess would be that the European and Japanese streams will vary in length, though perhaps just slightly. We do know that Satoru Shibata will be appearing in the European presentation.
Anyway, it sounds like Nintendo could have quite a bit to show. Should be fun!

Along with this image, director Masahiro Sakurai posted the following to Miiverse:
Pic of the day. Tomorrow is Valentine’s Day…and the day the new Nintendo Direct airs! It will stream in Japan at 7 AM so it’s going to be a very early morning for us…!
I think it’s safe to say that tomorrow’s Smash Bros. update will be a bit more exciting that this one.
