PSP Ys I & II Chronicles JPN

New Import: US$53.90/ea

JAN Code: 4956027124853
 PSP Ys I & II Chronicles + Bonus OST - New Import, In Stock
NCS Product Synopsis
 «©NCSX» Relive the adventures of Adol Christian in Ys I & II Chronicles which is a PSP remake of a PC remake (June 2001) of the original games that were released in the late 80s. That was 20 years ago when console software was cartridge-based and system memory was miniscule and dear.

   With the power of the PSP at their disposal and the sizable storage space of the Sony UMD, Falcom gives their classic Ys games a new generation upgrade and graphical facelift. The audio soundtrack has also been updated with background music (BGM) rearrangements for added value. Falcom touts three game modes for Ys I and Ys II, selectable graphics modes, and four difficulty levels (Easy, Normal, Hard, and Nightmare).

TOY Minna no Tetris TV Game JPN

New Import: US$49.90/ea

JAN Code: 4905040375308
 TOYS Minna no Tetris TV Game - New Old Import, In Stock
NCS Product Synopsis
 «©NCSX» According to the brain-related research of Professor Osamu Shinohara of Tokyo University, playing Tetris stimulates the frontal lobe of the brain and may prevent dementia. NCS is unsure if that little bit of information is a ringing endorsement of Tetris since observing the mating ritual of the humpback whale is probably just as stimulating... in terms of the frontal lobe. In any case, Tetris is a ubiquitous game and we've played hundreds of variants, clones, public domain iterations, and sequels through the years. Our frontal lobes have been stimulated like the dickens. Just like Jello however, there's always room for Tetris and NCS imports Minna no Tetris which is a self-contained TV game which features 11 versions of the game from the classic one-player version to a competitive 2-player rendition to a version that features big blocks which is perfect for the kids.
 
 

PS3 Tears to Tiara JPN

New Import: US$35.90/ea

JAN Code: 4996802090744
 PS3 Tears to Tiara: Kakan no Daichi - New Import, In Stock
NCS Product Synopsis
 «©NCSX» A millennium has passed since a white-haired demon named Arawn (that's the correct spelling according to Aquaplus) was imprisoned inside a tomb. On the day of his awakening, a maiden named Riannon is all set to be sacrificed as an offering when she's saved by her brother Arthur. After a conspiracy of events, Arawn befriends the siblings and gathers together a party of adventurers to go on a world spanning adventure. Mixing interactive sequences with conventional RPG elements and strategy-rpg encounters, Tears to Tiara is a adventure game tour-de-force that will be enhanced with new animated sequences for its PS3 turn.
    Tears to Tiara was originally released in a regular and limited edition for the Japanese PC in 2005. The Playstation 3 conversion followed the same convention with a regular edition priced at JPY6800 and a limited edition at JPY8800. AquaPlus re-releases the PS3 edition in a lower-priced version this week at JPY2800 or US$35.90 from NCS.
 
 

TOYS Nendoroid Drossel JPN

Import Preorder: US$46.90/ea

JAN Code: 4582191963761
 TOYS Nendoroid Drossel - Import Preorder
NCS Preorder Synopsis
 «©NCSX» Drossel's figma rendition was a recent sales winner and NCS anticipates similar success when her Nendoroid incarnation is released later this year. Whereas the figma was a standard 1/8 scale recreation of Drossel's lanky form, the Nendoroid is a squat super-deformed version of the Disney heroine which measures 10cm tall. Drossel's Nendoroid also features big blue "eyes" which light up by way of built-in battery power. Similar to the figma, Nendoroid Drossel is posable and includes accessories galore to recreate scenes from the Fireball CG series of short films. A circular stand is included with the toy for display purposes.

   Preorders are welcome to ship in mid-late November 2009 at JPY3800 or US$46.90 from NCS.
