TOYS Darth Vader Sound Tsuke JPN

Japanese Import: US$16.90

JAN/SKU Code: 2390-09-306-05
 TOYS Star Wars Darth Vader Sound Tsuke Strap - Import Preorder
NCS Preorder Synopsis
 «©NCSX» Darth Vader is an imposing figure when he's on his feet and swinging a light saber while a swishy cape billows behind him. Respect the dark knight. However, decapitate Darth and he's not that imposing anymore. That's what you'll get with the Star Wars Darth Vader Sound Tsuke Strap which makes Darth noises and may be tethered to a set of keys, a phone, or another device fitted with a loop. Preorders ship in late September 2009 at JPY1280 or US$16.90 each.

 
 

TOYS Terminator Salvation JPN

Japanese Import: US$23.90

JAN/SKU Code: 2410-PRZ2331
 TOYS Terminator Salvation Real Arm Figure - Import Preorder
NCS Preorder Synopsis
 «©NCSX» We don't remember a whole lot about Terminator Salvation other than the kiss the convict got when he agreed to be a guinea pig at the beginning of the movie. Then he became a Terminator. Japanese manufacturer Omron/Furyu has started preorders for a 30cm "Real Arm Figure" that's inspired by Terminator Salvation. The arm is made of PVC so we're not sure how "real" it can be. Preorders ship in Dec 2009.
 
 

PS3/X360 Bayonetta JPN

Japan Import: US$80.90

JAN Code: 4974365835408
 NEWS Bayonetta - Region Coding Clarification
X360/PS3 Bayonetta Coding Clarifications
    We received a flood of emails asking about the region coding on Bayonetta earlier this morning. Just to clarify:

1) Japanese Xbox 360 games are region-locked. Always have been.
2) Japanese PS3 games are not region-locked. Old news.

   The Japanese Xbox 360 version of Bayonetta won't work on a USA or European Xbox 360 but this is status quo and par for the course.

   The PS3 hardware is region-free for game software and in any case, Japan and the USA share the same region and the firmware updates are interchangeable. Sega can't region-lock PS3 Bayonetta.
