PS3 Initial D Extreme Stage [Best] - Import Preorder

NCS Preorder Synopsis
«©NCSX» It's been six years since Sega released Initial D: Special Stage on the PS2. The game sold very well and a number of printings were made to fill demand in Japan, Asia, and abroad. When Initial D: Extreme Stage was released on the Playstation 3 roughly two years ago, the game sold well with a positive reception throughout the territories that NCS ships to.
PS3 Initial D: Extreme Stage is based on Initial D Arcade Stage 4 which was originally built on Sega's Lindbergh coin-op hardware. The game features seven main courses such as Lake Akina and Irohazaka but if you factor in the variations, the course count runs up to 28 tracks. There's 23 vehicles that may be driven including the Toyota Trueno GT-APEX (AE86), Mitsubishi Lancer GSR Evolution III (CE9A), Nissan Skyline GTR V-Spec II (BNR32), and the Honda Civic Type R (EK9). Finally, a total of 23 drift-savvy rivals provide drama and adversity for racing fans to contend with.
Preorders for the "Best" re-release of Initial D Extreme Stage are welcome to ship on March 11, 2010 at JPY3800 or US$45.90 from NCS.

PS3 Ryu ga Gotoku 4 Densetsu wo Tsugumono - Import Preorder

NCS Product Synopsis
«©NCSX» Fresh from his stint as proprietor of the Morning Glory orphanage in Ryu Ga Gotoku 3, Kiryu Kazuma steps back into the neon-lit world of the Yakuza. In the fourth Ryu Ga Gotoku game, Kiryu is accompanied by three cohorts named Masayoshi Tanimura, Shun Akiyama and Taiga Saejima. The four thuggish heroes enjoy their own storylines in the game and their escapades intertwine as the adventure unfolds.
The base of operations for Kiryu and friends is the seedy streets of Kamurocho which is populated by Yakuza who ply their trade in houses of vice. Sega expands Kamurocho by allowing the exploration of the rooftops and the sewers for an added dimension of realism and mobility.
When Kiryu gets a chance to relax, he'll be able to play pachinko, table tennis, golf, go fishing, and enjoy the charms of bar hostesses. A visit to a massage parlor is also in the cards.
Early preorders will ship with a new issue of Kamutai Magazine which chronicles the locations, characters, events, and specialties in Ryu Ga Gotoku 4. The bonus magazine is being given away in 50% ratio.

TOYS Hello Kitty Tsubaki Gara Wallet - New Import, In Stock

NCS Product Synopsis
«©NCSX» The year 2009 marked the 35th Anniversary of Hello Kitty and NCS received numerous product offers throughout the year. We ignored most of them because it is our belief that there's too much Kitty in the world. Despite the lack of love for Kitty at NCS however, we allowed a few Hello Kitty products through the gates last year... and this year.
The Hello Kitty Tsubaki Gara Wallet is adorned with flowers bearing white petals and disembodied Hello Kitty heads. The black background provides contrast to the flowers and Kitty's pale face while a shock of red puts the blush on things. Four wallet styles are on offer (please choose your preference based on the location of each wallet in the top photo). All preorders have shipped already and new orders are welcome. Photo Gallery

TOYS Love Plus Cushion - Import Preorder

NCS Product Synopsis
«©NCSX» Konami's Love Plus game was big. It wasn't as big as Tokimeki Memorial but the game sold well and fans in Japan are clamoring for more. If Konami won't ship a sequel anytime soon, they'll at least license Love Plus for merchandising.

The girls are (from the left and going right): Rinko Kobayakawa, Manaka Takane, and Nene Anegasaki. Each cushion measures 60x40cm (23.62" x 15.74") in area which is almost big enough to be used as a "body pillow" which might fulfill this fellow's fantasy.
