Rodea: The Sky Soldier for Wii will have its own physical disc bundled with first-print Wii U copies in the west

Those who purchase the Wii U version of Rodea: The Sky Solider will be treated to a special bonus. NIS America is including a copy of the original Wii title, which was how creator Yuji Naka envisioned the game.
In Japan, the Wii version had its own separate disc. We weren’t sure if this would be the case in the west as well, but NIS America has since confirmed this to be the case.
The publisher wrote on Twitter today:
Public #Rodea Announcement! The Wii version of the game will indeed be on its own physical disc bundled with first-print Wii U versions!

It’ll be interesting to see what NIS America does with the Wii boxart. Will they use the Japanese version (see above), or something new?

Rodea: The Sky Soldier sales off to a very rough start in Japan
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 15 Comments
Rodea: The Sky Soldier isn’t doing so well in Japan. Actually, that’s probably a gross understatement.
With Rodea: The Sky Soldier not appearing on the Media Create charts, it was a sign that the game had sold poorly. Dengeki, which is also involved with sales tracking, provides a disappointing figure for Rodea’s debut in Japan.
Dengeki says that Rodea: The Sky Solider on Wii U sold 2,725 units in its first week. The 3DS version did not chart at all, so that version sold even fewer copies. Very disappointing!
