PS3 Demon's Souls BPE JPN

New Import: $92.90/each

EAN/SKU Code: 3546430149225
 PS3 Demon's Souls Black Phantom Edition - New Import
«©NCSX» New orders are welcome for the European version of Demon's Souls - a title which Asian and North American gamers have been playing since 2009. Why the delay for Europe? Maybe demons are scary and only one continent at a time can handle them. The European edition is termed the "Black Phantom Edition" which includes the following:

» Demon's Soul game (PS3 games are region-free and playable anywhere)
» Demon's Souls Soundtrack CD 
» Demon's Souls hardcover illustrations booklet
» Demon's Souls strategy guide

   Everything's packaged in a slipcase that's similar in size and design to the North American deluxe pack. Preorders are shipping today at the original price which we are honoring but new orders will be priced at US$92.90 due to higher than expected costs to import this title to the US.

PSP Jikkyou Powerful Pro 2010 JPN

New Import: $53.90/each

JAN/SKU Code: 4988602150421
 PSP Jikkyou Powerful Pro Yakyuu 2010 - New Import
NCS Product Synopsis
 «©NCSX» The baseball season is well along this year on both sides of the Pacific. The NY Yankees are leading the American League East here in the States and the Yomiuri Giants are ruling the Central League standings over in Japan. In other baseball news, Konami releases another volume in what's probably the longest running baseball game series in the industry. Yep, Jikkyou Powerful Pro Yakyuu or big-head-baseball has been around for nearly 20 years and NCS has watched it grow, develop, and get refined into a multi-console franchise that has endured the test of time.

   Upon starting the game, a snazzy introductory sequence plays where animated baseball players with big eyes and no mouths go to bat, pitch, and play the game for an enthusiastic throng. Towards the middle of the introduction, fireworks start blowing up to add to the theatrics. Fireworks are cool. The 2010 edition of Jikkyou Powerful Pro for the PSP features all 12 Japanese professional teams and their respective stadiums in which they'll play. The usual game modes return including "Pennant Mode" where players reach for the post-season and "My Life" which places gamers in the shoes of a rookie who's just starting his career in the world of professional baseball. The PoTaCa Card System also makes its return where in-game trading cards are used to unlock special Pro Yakyu 2010 features. PoTaCa cards are also used to imbue baseball players with improved skills and abilities across the various game modes. The "Success Mode" of the game allows players to choose a pro team and enjoy a season-long baseball scenario that's unique for each squad.
 
 
 

PSP Momotaro Dentetsu Tag JPN

New Import: $58.90/each

JAN/SKU Code: 4988607051402
 PSP Momotarou Dentetsu Tag Match Yuujou - New Import
NCS Product Synopsis
 «©NCSX» Previous games in the Momotarou Dentetsu franchise pitted a solo player against other participants in a relentless race for wealth. That lonely sort of entrepreneurship ends with Hudson's new "Tag Match" version of Momotarou where a team cooperates and collaborates to build a business empire faster than a a rival team. Players may engage in 2-vs-2 challenges or a 1-vs-3 contest where one savvy businessman attempts to outmaneuver a team of three competitors. That one businessman would be alone again (naturally) but perhaps some hustlers thrive on loneliness.

   Similar to earlier Momotetsu games, players travel across the expanse of Japan by rail with the goal of buying real estate and building up capital reserves. More capital means the wherewithal to purchase more property which in turn leads to more capital. Momotetsu is played in board game format where every player throws a die (that's singular for dice) and the resultant number is the amount of spaces that one may move. On each location on the play board, an event occurs or a property may be bought for a listed amount of yen. The size of the play map sprawls larger than the areas found in the recent versions of Momotetsu on the Nintendo DS (3.3X larger than Momotaro Dentetsu DS: TOKYO & JAPAN and 2.5X larger than Momotaro Dentetsu 20th Anniversary) so there'll be properties galore to procure. An assemblage of new events, properties, characters, and a new adversary named Tsurugi Bombee make their debut in the game. For multiple player tag-team antics, up to four gamers may play a short version of Momotetsu by linking up via ad hoc mode with 1 copy of the game.

New Import: $73.90/each

JAN/SKU Code: 4988602150438
 PS3 Jikkyou Powerful Pro Yakyuu 2010 - New Import
NCS Product Synopsis
 «©NCSX» Starting this year, Konami's Jikkyou Powerful Pro Yakyuu game series graduates from the Playstation 2 to the Playstation 3. The PS2 had a great run but all console generations must die eventually and give way to new turks. The PS3 will serve as the default big-console-platform for future Pro Yakyu games.
   The 2010 edition of Jikkyou Powerful Pro for the PSP features all 12 Japanese professional teams and their respective stadiums in which they'll play. The usual game modes return including "Pennant Mode" where players reach for the post-season and "Versus" which places gamers in the collective shoes of a professional baseball team that plays against another professional club. The "Success Mode" of the game allows players to choose a pro team and enjoy a season-long baseball scenario that's unique for each squad. A card system that similar to the PoTaCa system featured in the Playstation Portable version of the game is utilized where trading cards are used to imbue baseball players with improved skills and abilities. The PS3 version supports online play as well as the ability to watch games in progress being played by other online gamers.
