Wow! My IGN wishlist showed the game as a late September release. As of now, IGN, EBgames, and Gamestop all have it as August 24! First ilovebees.com, and now this.
Nope, they're seperate releases. Any pack-in talk would be purely speculation, the games were unveiled as seperate games.
VJ1 PS2 is getting a budget release though ($29) with Dante added as a bonus playable character.
edit-Wonder what they'll do for VJ2 in terms of Dante? If they include him in the PS2 version, it'd be nice if they added a GC exclusive bonus character... maybe Rockman.EXE or even TWW Link if Nintendo allowed it?
