PLEASE READ: The NEW SHOP is separate and distinct from the OLD SHOP. If you place an order on the OLD SHOP, you will not be able to use the NEW SHOP to check on your order and vice versa. Unfortunately, we were not able to resolve the two shop databases in order to transfer customer histories and accounts. Both shops are fully operational and capable of taking orders.
 

PS2 Project Altered Beast
 PS2 Project Altered Beast - New Japanese Import
   A manimal (that's man-animal) with amnesia is on a mission where he fights in both human form and in the true nature of beasts such as a mighty werewolf (powerful slashing attack), a thuggish wendigo (freeze breath), and even a legendary minotaur (flame blasts), among other beasts. Chips are used to morph into other creatures for added novelty.  
 
 

PC Virtua Stick Buttons

PC Virtua Stick Isometric
 PC Virtua Stick - New Japanese Import
   A weighty joystick with a clicky lollipop on the left and eight buttons all located and arranged logically on the right side. Construction quality is sturdy with nary a creak when moving the stick from table to lap and then to tabletop again. A thin metal plate serves as the base/bottom of the stick which adds additional weight and stability. NCS Advisory: When wearing shorts or thin pants, be sure to place a cloth on your lap before putting the stick down since the metal is bone-chilling to the flesh.
 
The button arrangement is as follows for the six main buttons:
 
TOP ROW    X, Y, Z
2ND ROW    A, B, C
 
   The L "trigger" button is located below the "A" while the R is to the
4 'o clock position of the "C" button. A yellow "START" button sits on
the upper portion of the stick and a blue "TURBO" button is a few
inches away from "START." The cord measures a lengthy 6' long. 
   Similar to Sega's USB Control Pad, the Virtua Stick is recognized
immediately upon inserting into a WinXP, Windows ME, 2000, and 98SE PC
or a Macintosh equipped with at least Mac OS X v10.2.8.

TOY One Piece Battle Video Game
 TOY One Piece Interactive Video Game - New Japanese Import
   Bandai releases a self-contained TV game which plugs into the AV inputs of any television and uses XaviX technology to detect the punches and swings from a player. For example, one may choose to play as the elastic Luffy and view the game from a "Crossed Swords" in-person perspective where only Luffy's fists are viewed. Swing your left arm in real life and watch with mouth agape as Luffy's virtual left arm stings with a jab. Do the same with your right hand and Luffy swings his best in perfect mimicry of your action. Using just the weapons known as your hands, punch a foe into submission.
