Accessories that include bows and ribbons complete the outfit so that a model can wear it and show off on the runway in a fashion show. Along with clothing designing, a total of 15 mini-games which include coloring, making crepes, and puzzles may also be played for a smidgeon of stylus-shaking action.

Every copy of the first printing of the game is bundled with a bonus Data Card DASU which is being given away by Bandai. Preorders are welcome to ship on August 5, 2010 at JPY4800 or US$53.90 from NCS.

TOYS Asuka Langley Test Type Plug-Suit Figure - Import Preorder

NCS Preorder Synopsis

«©NCSX» The fiery Asuka Langley of Evangelion fame is a hot-tempered whippersnapper of a girl who has captured the hearts of EVA fans the world over. She's spunky, sharp, and is seemingly immortal because in the Evangelion 2.0: You Can (Not) Advance film from 2009, Asuka and her Evangelion busted up by an EVA-01. However, in the preview for the next Evangelion 2.0 film subtitled "Quickening," Asuka may be seen wearing an eyepatch and is very much alive. Maybe she's a phoenix who'll always rise from the ashes.

Kotobukiya has created a number of Asuka Langley figures in their time and they're releasing another one later this year which measures 24cm or 9.45" tall. Asuka's garbed in her skin-tight Test Type Plug-Suit which is painted red along with a shade of orange. Asuka appears to be happy since her facial expression is accompanied by a half-smile and her eyes are kind. Her backdrop is a piece of wreckage which is twisted just right to make an temprary perch. Preorders are welcome to ship in late October 2010 at JPY7800 or $89.90.

X360 Ninety-Nine Nights 2 - Import Preorder

NCS Preorder Synopsis
«©NCSX» In the original Nine-Nine Nights, a single warrior went to town on entire battalions of enemy soldiers and mowed them down with conspicuous ease. Based on the previews of Ninety-Nine Nights 2, the game is more of the same where a super-warrior kills not only one or two squads of troops but thousands upon thousands of them. Usually within the span of a few minutes.
In the world of N3, the lands of the elves, goblins, humans, and ogres have been beset by a dark army led by the "King of Night." The King and his hordes ravage the world for ninety-two days but a hero emerges to meet the dark armies and their King. Such a hero must wield two swords, wear a constant scowl on his face, and have slashing skills that would even put the scare in Chuck Norris.
Konami touts 100 types of skills that may be used in N3II which allow for a variety of killing moves and tactics. One wouldn't want to kill enemy soldiers just by way of rote hacking and slashing - a hero needs a bunch of different ways to eviscerate the opposition.
Preorders are welcome to ship on July 22, 2010 at JPY6800 or US$69.90 from NCS. The original N3 included a bonus flick-action keychain as a preorder incentive but sadly no such incentive is listed for N3II.

PSP Idol Janshi Suchie Pai IV Portable - Import Preorder

NCS Preorder Synopsis

De-facto artist of the Suchie Pai series Kenichi Sonoda also returns with a bevy of new illustrations and outfits for the girls to wear.
The setting of Suchie-Pai 4 is Akihabara in Tokyo and the mahjong action takes place in seven eateries located around town. There's the posh Cafe Gentry, the casual coffee shop dubbed You & Me, and the utilitarian Hell & Heaven where the MJ-playing girls work and perfect their craft.

Preorders for the regular edition of Suchis Pai IV are welcome to ship on August 12, 2010. Reservations are also welcome for a limited edition which includes a special Drama CD and a slipcase.

NDS Kamen Rider Battle Ganbaride Card Battle Taisen - Preorder

NCS Preorder Synopsis
«©NCSX» In the Kamen Rider Battle: Ganbaride coin-op that was released in 2008, Bandai coupled the Riders with data cards for a somewhat enjoyable arcade experience. The special cabinet that housed the Kamen Rider game featured a big-center-button along with three additional buttons per player and a card scanner. By using only buttons and cards, players made a pair of Riders battle another pair of Riders in a card-inserting, button-pressing, virtual-slot-spinning, stutter-step of a card fighting game. Fans of Kamen Rider will enjoy the round-by-round simulated attacks but non-fans will probably scratch their heads and mumble something that sounds like "WTF." The NDS game features 700 cards and the first printing of the NDS conversion will include a pack of 11 Rider Kick Cards which is packaged inside the game case. Preorders are welcome to ship on July 29, 2010 at JPY4800 or US$53.90 from NCS.
