NCS Product Synopsis
«©NCSX» The original Dissidia game on PSP sold over 1.8 million copies globally which is an impressive achievement. If Dissidia's sequel Duodecim does even half of what the original did, Square Enix's shareholders will stay happy and continue to benefit from the Final Fantasy juggernaut.

Duodecim also introduces the "Assist System" For fans of the canonical Final Fantasy games, Duodecim includes an RPG Mode where the player loses direct control of the hero and issues indirect commands instead.

TOYS Persona 3 Aegis EX Resinya Series - New, In Stock

NCS Product Synopsis
«©NCSX»  In the Persona 3 game,Aegis is an android who battles the dastardly Shadows with a volatile range of weaponry. Her prerogative in the game is to protect the protagonist of Persona 3 and she serves in that capacity with able-bodied determination. NCS took delivery of Max Factory's figma rendition of Aegis late last year and in a few months, we'll bring in Cospa's EX Resinya version of the blonde Shadow-killer.


   Cospa's known more for their apparel and accessories than their toys but the Aegis Resinya sculpture is an ambitious piece of work. The figure is mounted on an overly ornate vehicle and she's standing on one hoof. Aegis' left hand is pointed at something in the distance but she doesn't have any fingers - there's only miniature gun barrels that are ready to let loose. Her right hand is smoking and bullets are scattered in the air around the wisps of smoke. 

TOYS Chi's Sweet Home Patapata Sukinano Plush - New

NCS Product Synopsis

«©NCSX» The Chi's Sweet Home plushes that arrived in the summer of 2010 sold like cheezeburgers with a side of fries. Japanese manufacturer Omron follows up their Chi's plush success with another trio of Chi's toys.

   In the new collection, Chi is hugging a banana but no one knows why. NCS is aware that the banana is a flavorful fruit that is enjoyed by millions but embracing a banana is taking the love to another level. Each Chi plush measures 10cm or 3.93" tall and three variants are available - the first Chi has wide-open eyes and is grabbing onto a pastel-blue banana while the second chi is squinty-eyed and holds a natural yellow-colored banana. The final Chi is wide-eyed and hangs onto a pink banana. Although the bananas look more like boas than the Cavendish strain that everyone loves, they are supposed to be bananas. Not boas. All preorders have shipped as of yesterday and new orders are welcome. «NCS Photo Gallery»

NDS Screen Protect Filter for Nintendo 3DS - Import Preorder

NCS Preorder Synopsis
«©NCSX» The Nintendo 3DS ships next month and like previous Nintendo handhelds that have been released over the past two decades, the screen will need protecting. Not only from dust, pollen, and Cheetos but also grime, greasy fingerprints, and anything else that's out in the wild. To help gamers prevent screen pollution and/or unsightly smearing, Hori enters the scene with the aptly named Screen Protect Filter for the DS.

   The package includes two filters which are perfectly sized to protect the top and bottom screens. The application process of the filter atop each screen isn't difficult but does require a slow and easy technique to avoid misalignment. Preorders for the Nintendo 3DS Screen Protect Filter are welcome to ship on February 26, 2011 at JPY477 or US$8.90 from NCS.
