Keiji Inafune deserts Capcom

   The man responsible for designing Rockman and giving him that natty blue suit is leaving Capcom, effective immediately. Keiji's been at Capcom for 23 years where he oversaw the production of the Rockman series of games and most recently, Dead Rising 2.

   Keiji was promoted to the title of "Global Head of Production" in April 2010 where he managed underlings and gave them direction. He was living the life of a corporate manager but apparently, that's not the kind of job that a designer necessarily desires. Based on some of his comments, it's my opinion that working in a huge corporation like Capcom is rife with politics and internal strife that can wear a manager down. His comments about the lack of innovation in Japanese game design may have also played a part in Keiji's departure.

   That's why I want to work in small and nimble firms where the hours are flexible and the workers have independence and autonomy (for the most part). A large corporation moves slowly and deliberately since there are multiple layers between upper management and the working stiffs. When there are that many layers, elements of mediocrity like politics, backstabbing, ass kissing, nepotism, and all that other crap gets shoveled into the mix.

NDS Ougon no Taiyou: Shikkokunaru Yoake - New Import

From the Publisher
  
A classic role-playing game branches out with a new look, countless adventures and heroic battles. The game picks up 30 years after the first two games in the series left off. At the end of Golden Sun: The Lost Age, the heroes succeeded in bringing the world-healing power of the Golden Sun back to the world of Weyard. In the years since, the immense power of the Golden Sun has changed nearly everything. Continents have shifted. New countries have emerged. New species have appeared. But the world is now imperiled by a new threat. Psynergy Vortexes, which suck the elemental Psynergy from both the land and power-wielding Adepts alike, are spreading across the world. The new generation of heroes – the children of those from the previous games – are drawn into the mystery behind the vortexes, as they cross a chaotic world that is succumbing to a new evil.

PSP Dream C Club - Import Preorder

NCS Product Synopsis
«©NCSX» Last summer, a new and highly exclusive hostess bar debuted in Japan. Armed with a liquor license and a coterie of attractive attendants, the fledgling club attracted all manner of patrons who were willing to pay the price of admission. Dream Club was the name and libation's served by lovely hostesses was the game. Literally. Dream Club is a hostess bar simulation where players visit the Dream Club, order colorful alcoholic beverages from an extensive menu, and talk to attentive hostesses. 

   By being somewhat clever through the input of prompts and cues, players try to learn more about the girls and get them to drink. By loosening a hostess up, she might reveal a personal secret or get up on stage to do a little dancing or singing. Familiarity normally breeds contempt but not at Dream Club. The more that you visit and spend your hard-earned yen, the friendlier the hostesses get. You probably won't find love at Dream Club but you'll get lots of undivided attention that might not normally be forthcoming. Remember, as long as your virtual money is flowing, you can do not wrong at Dream Club.


   The Playstation Portable port of Dream C Club plays the same kind of game as the Xbox 360 original but the conversion includes a few new features that might appeal to players. The Dream Clock feature gives the receptionist of Dream Club the freedom to utter the time. To listen to more tidbits from the receptionist, pressing the "Square" button forces her to divulge information about the hostesses.

PSP Carnage Heart EXA - New Import

NCS Product Synopsis
«©NCSX» The Overkill Engine mechs (OKEs) of Carnage Heart are back in a new PSP game where players design a mech and program it with artificial intelligence known as "thinking routines." The goal of the programming is to create a automated war machine that is capable of going into battle by its lonesome in order to attack enemy mechs, avoid obstacles, and defend itself against the opposition. The logic routines are called "chips" and they may be linked together into strings of commands which dictate how the OKE reacts to conditions on the battlefield. In addition to allowing a mech to rely on its logic to protect itself and launch offensive measures, players can also manually take control of an OKE and guide it to victory.

   To get gamers started, a Tutorial Mode leads players through the rudimentary basics of the programming system which is based on visual routines. These routines are chained together into "if-x-then-y" commands which the OKE obeys. Since the programming is simple, just about anyone can create simple commands for the mech to follow. More complex routines and multi-chain commands for high-level programmers may be implemented as well. To get players started, a series of sample logic routines is included which show how a mech acts based on the programming. The ad-hoc mode allows up to six players to link up along with a video data trading mode.

   All orders will ship with a bonus soundtrack CD which contains songs that were composed by but not used in the game.

X360 Rajirugi NOAH Massive - New Import, In Stock

NCS Product Synopsis
«©NCSX» Sales for the Wii conversion of Radirgy NOAH were tepid. Maybe the elite shmup corps overseas didn't feel like playing a shooter with an input device called a "Nunchuk" or a "Remote." This week, Radirgy NOAH debuts on the Japanese Xbox 360 which should prove to be more favorable for Milestone's sales. In the confines of NCS' offices, we consider the X360 to be the spiritual successor of the Dreamcast... at least in terms of coin-op to console shooter conversions.

 
  Radirgy NOAH is a vertical shooter where a squat ship displays its versatility by shooting at flitting enemies, shielding itself from danger, and slashing at incoming attackers. By firing away and slashing during the course of the stages in Radirgy, the ship levels up both offensive functions for improved performance. "NOAH" features a simultaneous 2-player option and is viewed in the Yoko (horizontal) aspect which allows enough room for both gamers to maneuver and takes sides. The final boss "Ruki Mishima" from the first Radirgy is an optional player-character in NOAH. Bosses in the game include a bald-headed homo sapien in yellow pants who performs a spin attack that launches fireballs and an aerial platform that disappears in a puff of clouds when destroyed.
   Milestone is adding the word "Massive" to the Xbox 360 conversion of Radirgy NOAH but that impressive descriptor appears to only encompass new game modes in addition to the default arcade mode, an illustrations gallery which features unlockable artwork, and an online ranking mode.

NDS Nintendo DSi LL Mario 25th Anniversary - New Import

NCS Product Synopsis
   Nintendo celebrates the 25th Anniversary of Super Mario with a limited edition Nintendo DSi that's sort of super. The new handheld is painted dark red to match Mario's cap and shirt. He's been wearing the same uniform for the past quarter of a century which shows dedication and perhaps a lack of wardrobe. Three imprints are etched onto the lid of the NDSi - a mushroom, a flower, and a star (in that order) which are recognizable graphics from the Mario games. Below the three imprints, the following text is etched: "Super Mario Bros 25th Anniversary."

  Prices for the NDSi LL Mario 25th Anniversary Edition were finalized by Japanese vendors earlier in the week and they came in lower than originally expected. All preorders will be automatically adjusted down to the new price of US$309.90 and new orders are welcome to ship today.

NDS Solatorobo: Sorekara Coda e - New Import

NCS Product Synopsis
«©NCSX» The warrior named Red Savarin is a dog. No really, he's an "Inuhito" or furry mongrel but he's got skills, rolls with a mech named DAHAK AZ103, and carries a broadsword that'll strike a vagabond dead with one swing.
   Red lives in the world of
Shepherd Republic where dogs and cats with humanoid bodies populate the land. Red's profession is a Hunter and his profession takes him on retrieval missions, search missions, and other missions of that ilk. One day, Red is sent on an assignment to recover stolen data but the mission gets botched by an unexpected attack on the vessel that Red has boarded. While making his way to safety, Red runs into a cat girl or Nekohito named Elh Melizée and the two decide to team up and work together. A third compatriot named Chocolat Gelato who's Red's younger sister joins the duo on their adventures.

X360 Ore no Yome Anata Dake no Hanayome - New Import

NCS Product Synopsis
«©NCSX» Marriage ain't easy. Like any other human undertaking worth taking, marriage is fraught with peril, compromise, and tough decisions. Some marriages are filled with events like burned chicken dinners and the annual out-of-control barbecue fire but such is life. For those who are unwilling or unable to get married, there is another way to experience it.

Ore no Yome Anata Dake no Hanayome

  
Say that three times fast and someone might give you a nickel. In the game, players get hitched to an animated girl and live with her in a virtual marriage. The bride can be chosen from a number of preset gals and her voice may be selected from six available options. Once that's done, her birthday may be entered so you can decide if she's Aquarius, Libra, or Scorpio.

   Holidays and special events that occur over the course of the year will be spent with wifey along with mundane routines such as eating dinner and waking up beside her. A sampling of mini-games may also be enjoyed such as playing cards and interaction with relatives.

TOYS The Legend of Zelda Choco Eggs - Import Preorder

NCS Product Synopsis
«©NCSX» Psst. We have a secret. We've been selling single Zelda Twilight Princess gashapon toys for approximately US$50 each. One little toy. $50. Each. We'll be able to start the hedge fund once we sell a few more.
   This wasn't by design either. From the recesses of the old warehouse which closed last month, we've found all sorts of old inventory. Even found some Metroid toys but those are spoken for already.

   When the new Zelda Choco Egg toys from Furuta were announced, we knew that we'd be importing a bunch of them. The only problem is the little 11cm" figures are encased within thin chocolate egg shells. Chocolate has a shelf life of about 1 year. Our time horizon for toy storage is usually a decade so the chocolate will probably be rendered inert, tasteless, and possibly toxic when the year 2021 hits. A total of 11 standard Zelda figures are featured in the set along with a secret figure. Please note that the manufacturer is only selling this toy in factory cases of 10 toys so it's impossible to get the whole set by buying a case or possibly even two cases. Preorders for factory cases are welcome to ship in January 2011.

GEAR Mobile Suit Gundam Zeon N3-B Jacket - Import Preorder

NCS Product Synopsis
«©NCSX» According to one of the old codgers in our office building, "It's going to be a miserable winter this year." Excuse me, but what winter isn't miserable? "Cold," "drafty," "shivering," "frostbitten," and "frozen" aren't exactly conditions that promote comfort. NCS has an answer for the codger however:

Mobile Suit Gundam Zeon N3-B Jacket.

   He'll probably balk at the $229.90 price tag however. We've never tried to sell him anything since he's too cagey for us but we'll try some boiler-room tactics on him when the jackets arrive. Cospa's Zeon N3-B jacket is made of polyester for the outer shell and nylon for the inside shell. The hood is lined with luxurious fur. Is it ermine, sable, or mink? Nah, it's fluffy fur that's woven from the hide of a beast known as acrylic. PETA can mount a protest against someone else. Preorders are welcome to ship in January 2011.  

COSP Arakawa "Under the Bridge" Hoshi Kaburigurumi - Preorder

NCS Product Synopsis
«©NCSX» When you were a little girl, you wanted to be a star. Not just any star however. A star as in a real star - like the sun which shines high up in the sky. As you grew older and mama told you to stop all that nonsense, your dreams of becoming a star died and a little piece of your heart broke off and shriveled up into a mangy piece of beef jerky.

   It might be too late for you to be a star but other little girls (and grown- ass men, as shown in the photo) can become stars. No, really. Stars. Simply don the "Star Helmet" and you're instantly transformed into a star. The only bad thing about the star helmet is that it won't be shipping from Cospa until next year which is too late for Halloween. The star measures 60cm in diameter and is free size which means it'll latch onto most human heads. Preorders are welcome to ship in mid-late January 2011 at JPY3800.

TOYS Mario Mascots Figure - Princess Peach - New Import

NCS Product Synopsis
«©NCSX» We're not fond of Sanei's Princess Peach plush. Her expression seems to convey discomfort. Maybe she's suffering from gas or bloat or something that's causing her to be discombobulated. Poor girl. Other than Peach's expression, she also has a big face and a stilted posture. Are there any redeeming qualities to the plush? Yeah, her blue eyes are pretty and she's got a nice pink dress on. The crown's a little tacky but she wears it well.

   NCS' shipment of this particular plush should've arrived with the other Mario Mascot plushes about 8 months ago but she got caught on a slower boat. A real slow boat. Peach is in stock now however and all preorders are shipping this afternoon. The plush measures approximately 8" in height and can be posed in such a way that her legs and her dress allow the Princess to stand without any external support.

   New orders are welcome to ship today at US$16.90 from NCS. The Mario plush
that was released along with the Princess Peach plush is currently in stock and available for shipping. Everything else is gone.

TOYS Seikai no Ejiputo Takara Gashapon - New Import

NCS Product Synopsis
«©NCSX» King Tut's visiting New York City this year and he's staying at the Discovery Times Square Exposition. Visitors get to pay a $25 admission fee to ogle at 130 artifacts from the "Golden Age" of Egypt when Tutankhamun and company ruled the land.

   Japanese manufacturer Eikoh also has Egypt on the mind with their new Seikai no Ejiputo Takara (Treasures of Egypt) which features nine PVC replicas of Egyptian artifacts. Buyers will get a metal recreation of Tut's death mask, one of the Cleopatra's Needle monuments, a Sphinx, the Great Pyramid, an Egyptian Cat Bastet, and more. Each replica measures approximately 3cm (1.18") in length and is attached to a strap for tethering purposes. Please note that we're only accepting orders for sets of 8.

TEES You Must Play The Sega Saturn Tee - New Import

NCS Product Synopsis
«©NCSX» The last time we heard someone say "You Must Play the Sega Saturn" was about 15 years ago. That was when games like Nights Into Dreams, Burning Rangers, and Willy Wombat compelled us to sit in front of the Saturn and play. Two console generations have ensued since the days of the Saturn but every once in a while, the compulsion to play Willy Wombat rears up and NCS revisits the olden days of 32-bit gaming.

   Japanese manufacturer Cospa apparently feels the same way and designs an officially licensed t-shirt which bears imprints of the Saturn console, the Japanese Saturn logo, and a command which reads "You Must Play the Sega Saturn." The shirt is available in mint and white colors along with sizes in Small, Medium, Large, and Extra Large. All preorders have shipped already but please note that we're sold out as of this morning.

TOYS One Piece Super DX Portgas D. Ace - New Import

NCS Product Synopsis
«©NCSX» Banpresto has released a "limited edition" Portgas D. Ace prize figure that's generally only sold to amusement centers in Japan. We're citing the figure as "limited edition" because vendors are only allowed to purchase 1 carton from distributors.

   "What are prize figures?," someone might ask. You know those Japanese UFO catcher machines where saps players try to grab a slippery prize/toy/figure with a mechanical claw that's endowed with a loose grip? That's where the Super DX Portgas will be available in a few months. You could try to grab the Super DX Portgas D. Ace with a mechanical claw for an entire day and spend your week's wages to boot but NCS has a better way. Instead of loading Super DX Portgas into a UFO Catcher, NCS will just sell the figures to anyone interested in one. We'll grab Portgas straight from the manufacturer's cardboard boxes (packaged 12/carton) and ship them out.

   The fixed-pose figure measures 26cm or 10.23" tall and is made of PVC. Portgas is bare-chested but wears a pair of trunks and heavy boots. His trademark hat is present along with his cynical smile.

TOYS R2-D2 USB Desktop Cleaner - New Import, In Stock

NCS Product Synopsis
«©NCSX» If your desk is grimy, sticky, and coated with a thin veneer of crust, Taito's Star Wars R2-D2 USB Desktop Cleaner won't do anything for you. R2-D2 isn't powerful enough to clean your desktop sty. However, if dust and small bits of paper or glitter are all that haunt your tabletop, R2-D2 is a champ who plugs into any USB port and suctions small amounts of debris, detritus, and dirt.
   Please note that the suction intake port underneath R2-D2 measures only 7/8 x 1/4" which means it's far too too small to suck up anything other than rat feces, small pieces of paper which are smaller than 7/8 x 1/4" in area, dead baby roaches, and grains of spilled rice. An off/on switch is located on the back of R2's dome. Some questions and answers are in order:
 

I can wipe my desk with a napkin to clean it up, why do I need R2?
  
Because R2-D2 suction is cooler than napkin motion.

Is a C-3PO desktop cleaner also on the way from Taito?
  
No, C-3PO isn't cool like that.

Can I clean my cat with the R2-D2 gizmo?
  
Yes, but your cat would probably go on the attack and claw at least an ounce of flesh from your bones.
 
Where are you making these? On another planet? You'll never sell any before you get Lucas on your back.
   Our first choice was Tatooine because labor is dirt cheap there and criminal activity is rampant. However, there's a hefty bounty on our heads and we decided that China would be a safer place for manufacturing R2-D2 kit.

Does R2-D2 move by itself like a Roomba?
  
No, this particular incarnation of R2-D2 is immobile. Its struts don't even move and are fixed into position. To clean your desk, you would have to take R2-D2 into your right or left hand and then move it over small bits of paper, glitter, or spilled tomato seeds to clean up.

   The R2-D2 cleaner measures 10cm or 3.93" in height and is constructed of durable PVC and has a 36" USB cord attached in the back.

NDS Nintendo DSi LL Mario 25th Anniversary - New Offer

NCS Preorder Update
«©NCSX» Prices for the NDSi LL Mario 25th Anniversary Edition were finalized by Japanese vendors last night and they're lower than originally expected. All preorders will be automatically ratcheted down to the new price of US$309.90 and new reservations are welcome. If you have already paid by Paypal, a refund for the difference between the original preorder price and the new price will be processed this afternoon.

NCS Product Synopsis

   Nintendo celebrates the 25th Anniversary of Super Mario with a limited edition Nintendo DSi that's sort of super. The new handheld is painted dark red to match Mario's cap and shirt. He's been wearing the same uniform for the past quarter of a century which shows dedication and perhaps a lack of wardrobe. Three imprints are etched onto the lid of the NDSi - a mushroom, a flower, and a star. Preorders are welcome to ship on October 28, 2010.

NEWS General Updates

Neo Geo USB Pad Delayed
  
The release date of the PS3 Neo Geo USB Pad has been pushed from Oct. 28th to Dec. 9th. There doesn't appear to be any changes in the hardware and the new ship date is just an administrative delay of sorts.
Super Mario Collection
  
The remainder of our Super Mario Collection shipments are shipping tonight and all remaining preorders will be fulfilled on Wednesday or Thursday of this week. Some vendors didn't receive their allocations of the game until this past weekend which was obviously too late to ship for arrival last Friday with the initial batches of the game that did arrive.
Blizzcon 2010
   We didn't write the headline for the following video so kindly direct your disdain elsewhere:
Fat virgin breaks leg in Dance off! - Blizzcon 2010.
Egyptian Gashapon
  
The Egyptian artifacts gashapon arrived last week and we'll post photos tomorrow. The allocation of some figures was poor so we're selling the toys in sets of 8 in addition to sets of 9 which include a secret figure.
