NMH2 was released stateside earlier this year but the Japanese are getting a crack at it in October. To reward gamers who purchase the game later this year, Marvelous is including a "No More Heroes 2 Erotica Comic Book" illustrated by Yusuke Kozaki that's being given away in 50% ratio. The comic should be similar in style to the erotic postcards that were given away with the PS3 and X360 releases of the original No More Heroes game.

NDS Gakken Thai-Indonesia Zanmai DS - Preorder
NCS Preorder Synopsis
«©NCSX» Over 1.7 million Japanese travel to Thailand and Indonesia every year on holiday. The language barrier generally presents a problem but thanks to Gakken's Gakken Thai-Indonesia Zanmai DS language learning software, Japanese folks can speak to the locals with basic conversational phrases instead of pointing and gesturing. To help with proper pronunciation, practice samples are included along with a "sound measurement" function which shows the waveform of a spoken word and compares it to a properly spoken example. The software starts beginners at an elementary level and steps up the lessons until a 500-word vocabulary is achieved. A test function allows learners to check their skill level. In addition to learning to speak Thai and the Indonesian language, the software also includes basic reading and writing exercises for Thai (ภาษาไทย) characters. Preorders are welcome to ship on October 7, 2010 at JPY3800 or US$46.90 from NCS.
TOYS Vocaloid Hatsune Miku Tony Ver 1/7 Scale Figure - Preorder
NCS Preorder Synopsis
«©NCSX» Miku Hatsune gets footloose in Max Factory's latest fix-posed rendition of the Vocaloid starling. The original illustrator of Miku's pose is Tony (just Tony) who creates a joyous Miku with four limbs that point in four different directions. From across the room, Miku's flailing pose might be interpreted as swing dancing by herself or at least with her hair since she's sculpted in a wild twisty posture that's evocative of the Lindy Hop. That's right, the Lindy Hop which was born in Harlem, NY in the 1920s and became a part of American culture in the 1930s. Miku is sculpted to 1/7 scale and measures 215mm or 8.46" tall from top to toe. A transparent circular base with mounting arm is included for display purposes.
Preorders are welcome to ship in late January 2011 at JPY8800 or US$108.90 from NCS. Due to the size of the Miku figure, NCS recommends only shipping by UPS Ground within the United States since it will incur dimensional weight carriage charges if shipped by an air service.
