The new Slim model of the PlayStation 3 was announced just yesterday, and already it appears that Sony is ready to bundle it up with a new game– at least in its homeland of Japan, anyway.

Andriasang reports that Sony is teaming with Namco Bandai to offer a limited edition package which includes the new model of PS3 and the upcoming title, Kidou Senshi Gundam Senki…

The bundle is dated for a release on September 3rd, which just so happens to be the release date of both the PS3 Slim and the stand-alone version of the game in question. The package will run about ¥38,359, whereas the console costs ¥29,980 and the game is ¥8,329. As it turns out, it would be just a little cheaper just to buy the two separately.

$299. Now I know…I should have waited three years.
