I've been reading that the only reason West is waiting is because Namco wants the earnings at the beginning of the new fiscal year. Which, if true, is kind of crappy of them. In Japan, From Software is the one who decided the release..

It should be noted that in Japan, there are no bundles with games. They were paying 3,999 yen for just the console and thats it. Same with this price cut, it will only be for the console.
