Albeit for the same price

The Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire Dual Pack doubles the fun

Best Buy and Amazon.com have announced the Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire Dual Pack, containing physical copy of each gem for $79.98.

What's that you say? That's the same price as they would be separately? Well, yes. Having them together in one box is... er, good for the environment and all that.

To sweeten the deal, Nintendo will be including two digital codes for 100 potions apiece. Truth be told, you'll never really need that many as they only restore 20 HP. Berries next time please Ninty!

Pokémon Omega Ruby pits you against sworn enemies Team Magma, while Pokémon Alpha Sapphire has you fighting Team Aqua. A handful of 'mon will only be available in each version, but otherwise they are largely the same title.

The pack will go live on both Best Buy and Amazon.com later today, so keep your eyes peeled if it sounds like your cup of joe.

Ta for that, Kotaku.
