If you're one of the folk that purchased Metroid Prime Pinball, you've no doubt been playing Metroid Prime Hunters all this time with your free Rumble Pak as it realistically vibrated the echo of missile damage through the handheld, then your fingertips, and finally on into your brain. You could've also purchased the GBA slot-fitting add-on direct from Nintendo, or at a more expensive price, through importer Lik-Sang, to experience the tremors of gameplay. Or, if you're one of the dozens of people on the globe who've yet to acquire Metroid Prime Hunters, you could finally pick up the bounty-hunting simulation and get the accessory for free as it's now included in copies of the game, yet only while supplies last. No word yet on if the bundle will be available for those in Europe.

does it state it on the box, or is it the luck of the draw?

It appears to be a luck of the draw, as the goons that work the retail joints in my neck of the woods state that the box shows no sign of it being included eventhough they've seen copies opened with it snugged in there. I'll update the post when I get something concrete.

I finally picked this up on Sunday and I don't think there was a rumble pak in it. I'll feel pretty damned stupid if it's in there and I haven't noticed it by now.

Those bastards.
It really should've come with the game in the first place.

i think it would be best to buy the game, take out the rumble pak, return it as "defective", then repeat... if it doesnt say it on the pak, cash in and get your rumbles...

I got it with Metroid prime pinball in Japan, but the rumble pack doesn't work very well on my DS lite: there's no effect because the catdrige is too big...

Well, I have another reason to buy the game now. Free rumble joy without the pinball!
Though, if I already had the game, I'd just buy the "bundle" version, put the new cart in the old box and trade in...

Crux that idea is awesome. Serves them right to not have this when the game released. HAHAHA. Even though my Fry's Electronics sells the rumble pack for $20

We havn't even got Metroid Prime Pinball yet have we? So it better be in hunters. Not that it maters though i already got Pinball and the rumble pack isn't that impressive.

Seen the German version on the shelves over the weekend (indicated as having the game complete in 5 languages, but with a German-only cover and therefore probably manual) and it said explicitly on the box that the Rumble Pak is "sold separately". So I guess that means that we're not getting lucky here in Europe.
Of course, I couldn't open the damn thing, so I'll only know for sure when I get my copy (from the UK).

I am trying to buy the game now. Do the Rumble pak versions have an amendment on the barcode at all? The barcode usually says it all. I have bought Gamecube games with the second barcode ending in "000" on the box. Those are the originals. Now I see "001" with the "player's choice" and "best seller" versions. For Metroid Prime Hunters, all I have found are 001 and 002(non hologram) boxes. Does anybody own a "000" box for this game?
