Windows Navi+ launched a campaign on October 26, 2012 promoting the release of Windows 8. It was the first event featuring Yū and Ai Madobe.

The campaign proposed several limited edition Windows 8 Pro DSP bundles, the Windows 8 Pro DSP Release Commemorative Packs (Japanese: DSP版 Windows 8 Pro 発売記念パック), They included a Microsoft Wedge Touch Mouse and a Theme Pack CD-ROM. For both Yū and Ai, there were three kinds of packs (so six in total):

• The regular white pack, limited to 4000 units each for Ai and Yū.

The CDs contain three Full HD wallpapers of Ai and Yū, a fourth picture to be used as a password lock screen, and 44 short audio files of Ai voiced by Nao Tamura and Yū (Asuka Nishi). A .deskthemepack file is also included in order to set up the backgrounds and system sounds.

Mouses

All three Packs feature distinct decorations on the mouse.

In the unlikely case someone ends up with a lone and sealed mouse box that is known to belong to one of these packs, they can be distinguished by a sticker: a regular mouse is contained if there is no sticker, the Nipponbashi one if there is a blue sticker, and the Akihabara one if it is green.

A Duracell battery (dated from around 2012-08 and expiring around 2019-03) is included in these packs, though if still present, it is certainly dead and probably even leaked.

•

• 
  Interestingly, the mouse boxes are sealed twice.
