Wii Monster Hunter 3 Tri - Sale US$28.90 Free Shipping in USA

NCS Product Synopsis 
Update: August 01, 2009

«©NCSX» Wander into the wilderness once more and hunt down monsters great and small. Your job as a Hunter isn't to record their feeding or breeding habits in a little journal. No, your job is to slay them all. By using weapons that are well-suited for all out war, the Hunter slashes, stabs, slices, and dices his way through legions of hapless creatures. Victims include docile monsters who are easy-going plant eaters that wouldn't hurt a fly as well as rampaging creatures who are hunters in their own right.
   At the outset of the game, players create a custom Monster Hunter by adjusting a number of variables such as clothing color, hair style, and eye color. Every Hunter starts the game with a run of the mill sword and shield but players may out him/her with better weapons during the course of the game. Along with everyday monster butchering, Hunters also get to tackle missions which invariably involve monster hunting. Different weapons featured in the game include swords, gun-bows, axes, hammers, and more.

   In addition to killing all manner of monsters on land, players will also get to dive underwater and slay monsters in the murky depths where serpentine creatures dwell. The Wii Nunchuk and Remote controls are well suited for monster hunting where all of the functions including camera adjustment are within reach of the player's fingers on both hands.

PS2 Ryu Ga Gotoku (Playstation the Best) - Sale US$49.90 Free Shipping in USA

NCS Product Synopsis
Update: October 27, 2006
«©NCSX» The seedy underbelly of the Kamurocho district fosters all breeds. The ones that stand out in Ryu Ga Gotoku however are the bad seeds; the Yakuza inspired gangsters and killers who use force and devious design to unhinge their fellow man. The protagonist in the adventure is a bruiser named Kazuma who went to prison and summarily broke out. As the game starts, Kazuma is standing in the middle of a neon lit street while throngs of night life seekers stroll and mill about. Accidentally bump into someone and witness his or her stumbling motion and arm waving antics.
 

   Move Kazuma forward a bit and follow the fellow thug who wears a purple and gold shirt to a building. After entering the building, a cinema shows an encounter where a meek subject suddenly turns into a tiger wielding a golf club. This leads to the first battle of the game which is basically a training mission which teaches the various moves and combos that are available. Guide Kazuma and punch and power-punch the thugs in the room and their golf club swinging boss. The fighting is a full-fledged 3D action game where the controls are smooth and the punches rattle off in fluid motion. To grab someone in a choke hold, press the "O" button. To follow up with a head butt while choking someone, hit the SQUARE button. Thugs who are being choked may also be smashed into walls by pressing the TRIANGLE button when prompted. In addition to punches and smacks, Kazuma may pick up the golf club and other items in the room to whack foes with them. For example, pick up a waste basket and hurl it at a thug's head... We would have preferred more of a fight in the training mission since the thugs don't put up any resistance at all. They just sort of circle Kazuma and try to look menacing.  

 

Kamurocho
   Eagle-eyed "night-life" lovers may notice the similarities between the virtual streets of Kamurocho and the adult entertainment district of Kabukicho just north of Shinjuku Station. Visitors to Kabukicho may enjoy venues such as peep shows, massage parlors, strip clubs, private nudie sessions, porn theaters, and even illicit companionship for the pittance of a few thousand yen. Think of it as an adult amusement park that's currently ruled by the Chinese triads.

PSP GPS Receiver - PSP - Sale US$38.90 Free shipping USA

NCS Product Synopsis
Original Update: December 8, 2006
«©NCSX» In the 1980s, the U.S. Department of Defense opened the Global Positioning System up for civilian use. Before that auspicious occasion, the system was limited to military applications where a network of satellites in orbit provided information on a user's location on the planet. In essence then, an individual outfitted with a GPS receiver can triangulate his whereabouts anywhere on Earth.

How it works
   A network of 24 GPS satellites orbit the Earth two times a day and transmit data to the ground. Anyone with a GPS receiver can lock onto this data and use the process of triangulation to determine his/her location. The GPS receiver essentially calculates the time that a signal was sent by a satellite with the time that it was received. By calculating this difference in time, the receiver is able to determine the distance of the satellite. Couple the distance information from at least two additional satellites (triangulate... get it?), the receiver is able to determine its latitude and longitude on the planet. Throw in some more information from additional satellites and you're able to calculate latitude, longitude, and attitude. Once locked in, additional variables about the receiver can be determined including heading, speed, and track.

Playstation Portable GPS
   Sony's GPS receiver is remarkably small. The photo looks big but it's not to scale. Plug it into the USB port on top of the PSP and you're outfitted with a Global Positioning receiver. Although there is no software included with the accessory, there is already software available in the market which takes advantage of the GPS and more is on the way. Some selections that are in stock and available at NCS' shop:

Minna no Chizu: Map software for the PSP
Homebase Portable: Planetarium software for the PSP

Upcoming games and software that will support the GPS include:

Maplus Portable Navi
Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops
Minna no Golf Portable

DVD Tougeki 07 Super Battle DVD Vol 2 - Melty Blood Act Cadenza Ver B - Sale US$33.90

NCS Product Synopsis
Update: October 25, 2007
«©NCSX» Japan's got talent when it comes to game designers as well as game players. Make that hardcore game players who evidently have all the time in the world to hone their craft and precision through hundreds of hours of practice. This is evident in spades with Enterbrain's second Tougeki '07 Super Battle DVD which features crisp video captures of expert players pummeling each other in Melty Blood Act Cadenza Ver. B.

 

   Earlier this year, a national Melty Blood Act Cadenza tournament was held in Japan where players conglomerated together to test their skills against each other. Slowly but surely, the cream of the crop rose to the top until the two best players were pitted against each other for a bout that would thrill all in attendance.

 

   Since most Americans missed out on the tournament, Enterbrain steps in with a 90-minute DVD which features bouts from the tournament finals and the ultimate battle between the top players. The video is spooled directly from the coin-op machine's feed so anyone who's fearful of shaky-cam antics can rest assured that there'll be none of that here. The DVD is region-2 and will work on Japanese DVD players or multi-region players.
