PS2 Battle Stadium D.O.N JPN
 PS2 Battle Stadium D.O.N - New Import
«©NCSX» Heroes and villains from anime strongholds duke it out on 2D battlefields where frantic action is the order of the day. Fighters from Dragon Ball Z, One Piece, and Naruto run, jump, and attack in fast-paced battles evocative of Smash Brothers and perhaps Jump Superstars. In addition to conventional attacks, all of the fighters deal special blasts and offensive skills to gain an edge against rivals. Battle Stadium features levels that may be 1-on-1, 1-vs-2, or 1-vs-3. For example, in one battle, you may face off against Vegeta only. In the next battle, Sakura, Luffy, and Goku are all in the fray. Following that, a mission based battle may be presented with the winning condition listed before the start of the fight. Some missions have straightforward objectives such as winning the match but others force winning conditions including jumping a number of times, using a super attack to finish the bout, guarding for a stated number of times, and so on.

   Similar to the Gamecube version which arrived earlier in the week, up to four players may join in on the action (multi-tap sold separately). Game modes include Survival Mode, Story Mode, and a battle modifier where match elements are toggled from numerous conditions. «NCS G-Notes»

NDS Final Fantasy III DS Lite JPN
 NDS Final Fantasy III DS Lite Bundle - Preorder
«©NCSX» A week after Square Enix announced the special Final Fantasy III Nintendo DS Lite bundle, preorders are finally opened up for the limited edition product. Pricing is set at Y22,780 or US$249 from NCS. Please note that due to the expected limited supply of this item, pricing may change if suppliers are unable to fill preorder allocations and resort to gouge tactics. Repeat: Gouge Tactic$.
  
   Square Enix have not announced the production quantity of the FFIII DS Lite Bundle yet but each DS Lite will be serially numbered. We're guessing 15,000 bundles but perhaps up to 30,000 or more will be manufactured. We'll have the final number once the bundles ship on August 24, 2006.

   The face of the Crystal White NDS Lite features black and white artwork of Final Fantasy III character archetypes as drawn by designer Akihiko Yoshida. The Final Fantasy III logo is located beneath the NDS 2-screens logo. We hear the packaging design will also be special which can only add to the collectible value of the bundle.
