In yet another frustrating but unsurprising case of Japan getting all the cool stuff, a new version of the Devil May Cry 4 Collector's Edition is...wait. Coming to the US? Signed by Kobayashi-San? Packaged in tins for both 360 and PS3? Why yes, it actually is. Don't bother to check your surroundings, Hell hasn't frozen over just yet.
Here's the catch though - these 200 copies will be randomly distributed to retailers, according to the Capcom Unity blog:
"For what I believe is truly a first in our industry, DMC4 producer Kobayashi-san (also producer of Resident Evil 4, nuff said) has personally signed 100 copies of the PS3 and Xbox 360 Collector’s Edition tin by hand. We are now going to reintegrate these signed tins into the game manufacturing line and randomly distribute them across the US to a number of retailers and distributors. It might not be the keys to the candy factory, but it will be a rewarding, personal touch for a few lucky DMC fans."
Wow. Time to go on the hunt! Be sure to blog it if you are able to find one and share it with us. It seems like it will be a very fortunate few who actually obtain these, so good luck to everyone seeking one!

Now.
Canada not getting any?
:(
(eBay FTW)
Then I died a little on the inside
Seriously, this is just so cool.
His signature looks pretty easy to forge, so I imagine there will be more than 200 "signed" DMC4s on eBay.
I can't imagine what these will sell for on ebay.

I'm a big fan of this game.
so i wanted the special edition unopened.
I just got it today, and saw it was opened already...
It made me kinda sad. because I wanted it brand new.
but I saw the signature of "hiroyuki kobayashi" and I was who's this??
and I read this. and Now I'm happy I got it..
i don't care if its open or not I have one of the 100's woots!
