CD Xenoblade Original Soundtrack - New Import

NCS Product Synopsis
«©NCSX» The recent Xenoblade RPG for the Wii was an epic and somewhat awe-inspiring adventure. Preorders for the game flowed in at a galloping clip and NCS had to re-order the game a few times to meet demand. Such a grandiose adventure wouldn't feel "epic" and "awe-inspiring" if the music wasn't also matching of those descriptors.

All preorders are shipping today and new orders are welcome to ship later this afternoon.

BOOK SFIV & SSFIV Offcial Complete Works - New Import

NCS Product Synopsis

«©NCSX» Capcom's Street Fighter IV and Super Street Fighter IV have been accompanied by a lot of artwork. To promote the games, Capcom commissioned artists to create advertising material featuring characters such as Ken, Ryu, Ken vs. Ryu, and much much more. During the creative process of the game itself, artists sketched out the characters and set up storyboards before the visuals of the game were fleshed to life on the development stations. All that artwork was for the coin-op versions of the game. Artists also went about creating the advertising material for the home conversions of the games when the time came for Capcom to sell directly to the CS market.

With all that artwork, sketches, storyboards, and galleries in existence, it was only proper that Capcom collect all of it in one handy volume. One book to hold it all for fans to stare at, appreciate, and treasure for years to come. That book ships this week in Japan and Capcom also throws in interviews and commentary from the development team for added value. Street Fighter IV and Super Street Fighter IV Official Complete Works is an A4 Size Book (8.27 X 11.69") which contains 176 pages.

NDS Taiko no Tatsujin DS Dsi LL Stand - New Import

NCS Product Synopsis

«©NCSX» The Taiko no Tatsujin game presents the type of interaction that requires a steady hand and precise drumming skills.

Thanks to Hori's nifty Taiko no Tatsujin DSi LL Stand, the Taiko game becomes entertainment rather than a chore.

The Taiko no Tatsujin DS Dsi LL Stand is designed to cradle a Nintendo DS Lite, Nintendo DSi, or the larger Nintendo DSi LL securely within its accommodating grip. To accomplish the cradling of three different types of NDS handhelds, the stand features adjustable retainers that hitch onto the three supported NDS units. The base is wide to provide stability and the stand may also be angled in different positions for your viewing comfort. Two touchpens may be inserted into the receptacles located on the back of the stand. As a bonus, Hori includes two sheets of Taiko no Tatsujin decals which gamers may apply to the stand, a Nintendo DS, or on most solid unpocked surfaces.

PS2 Scared Rider Xechs - New Import

NCS Product Synopsis

«©NCSX» When an alien invasion gets into gear, six boys are recruited to combat the nefarious threat from outer space. In any other genre of game, there'd be a cast of trigger-happy grunts who blast away in blazing action sequences. However, Scared Rider Xechs isn't a shooter nor is it a tactical simulation. SRX is an otome game or a boy's love adventure where the protagonist is girl named Akira Asagi and she's surrounded by six hunky guys whom she directs against the aliens. Similar to the male archetypes found in other otome games, the boys in SRX are chiseled, lanky, and have fine features that are almost feminine.

As normal humans, the boys wouldn't stand a chance against the aliens but they're capable of transforming into superhumans who have fighting skills and moxie. To allay suspicions concerning their super powers, the boys form a rock band which Akira manages. The story of Scared Rider Xechs is told through 13 episodes of intrigue and narrative that's sure to whet the appetite of otome fans across Japan.

In addition to the regular edition, NCS has also received the limited edition of the game which includes a Drama CD and a 64-page fan booklet.
