NCS Preorder Synopsis
«©NCSX» Bird toys have been big sellers throughout NCS' history and the most recent success came in the form of the GA-KO Alarm Clock. Come next month, we're anticipating good things for Square's FFXI Piyo Piyo Hina Chocobo which fits in the palm of your hand and chirps a little singsong sound-effect to bring sweet mirth into your life. The Chocobo is powered by a CR2032 button-battery (included) and measures W55 × D65 × H58mm (W2.16 x D2.55 x H2.28") in dimension. Along with the Chocobo toy, Square is including a special registration code which allows jaded FFXI players to obtain an in-game item in the form of a virtual stuffed Chocobo toy.
Preorders are welcome to ship on or around November 25, 2009 at JPY1500 or US$20.90 from NCS.

TOYS Final Fantasy XI Piyo Piyo Hina Chocobo - Import Preorder
Wii Tales of Graces - Import Preorder
NCS Preorder Synopsis
«©NCSX» Three disparate kingdoms rule the world of Efinea - Fendel, Strata, and Windol - all of which vie for supremacy over the other. In the land of Windol sits a city named Lhant which is governed by a lord named Aston Lhant. Aston's first-born is a lad named Asbel who goes off to become a knight but upon his father's death, returns home to rule the principality. Namco's latest Tales game follows the story of Asbel and a girl named Sophie who helps him fend off an attack perpetrated by troops from Fendel. The mysterious Sophie suffers from amnesia which is a regularly used plot device in Japanese video games since it adds intrigue to the character.
Tales of Graces features the "Style Shift Linear Motion Battle System" which is just a convoluted way of saying "Slashing with two attack styles" where Asbel and company can switch between two types of combat skills. Namco touts Nintendo DS linkage where mini-games may be downloaded from the Tales software for portable play.
Early preorders will ship with a bonus Tales of Graces Special DVD and a Costume DLC card in 50% ratio. The 50% ratio means that Namco will give away one set of bonuses for every 2 copies of the game.
