PS2: Love Mahjong  JPN  US$23  BUY

   One would be loathe to associate a game such as mahjong with the concept of love but D3 Publisher holds no such reservations. Play one-on-one mahjong in class, on the beach, on a school playground, and by the pool against a full bodied virtual idol. Win a round and she'll remove clothing but only down to her bikini. Winnings also allow you to exact exercises upon your subject, including push-ups, sit-ups, bending, and other revealing interludes. A camera option allows one to photograph the victim in her most awkward and revealing positions for posterity - and store them in a virtual voyeur album which holds up to 120 images.

PS2: Thread Colors  JPN  US$60  BUY
   Childhood friends and new mates are met in high school and the town hospital when the main character of the game interacts with four teenage girls and a leggy guidance counselor. As the game begins, the player wakes up at a hospital with memory loss and struggles to remember a life lived and friendships from the past. The game takes place primarily at the hospital and the local high school where the girls drift in and out of the player's daily life. During the hospital stay, our hero befriends a girl who tends to be sickly and naive to the ways of the world but perhaps the two will help each other recover from their respective ailments.

The cover to the binder is opaque and decorated with the images of the five girls from the game. [Photos of the LE package]

GBA: One Piece Nanatsu Shima no Daihihou  JPN  US$49  BUY
   Lufy and crew are sailing the seas when a typhoon wreaks havoc and sends them onto a beach. At first, we only see Lufy lying on tan sands but he soon wakes up and sets off on a quest to locate his missing crew. A friendly parrot guides our hero from task to task and soon leads Lufy to his first encounter inside a cavern. World roaming happens in realtime as Lufy explores the new land. Battle sequences are set on grid-based battlefields where combatants move a certain number of squares and then perform an action. Pre-orders will include a neato set of One Piece pins. Due to limited supplies, new orders will not include the pins. 
 

Zelda no Densetsu

NEWS: Generalities  JPN 
   Zelda Bonus Disc Update - After tolerating our repeated requests for more information, suppliers are stating that every copy from the first printing of Zelda no Densetsu will include the bonus CD. We're assuming from this information that every copy that we import in the first week will include the bonus since we submitted our preorders over a month ago. We were able to bump our preorder numbers up a bit and new orders may be submitted today which will ship from the first batch on Dec. 12.
Update 02:39PM EST - Due to a surge of new orders this morning, NCS has closed preorders again. If we are able to import additional supplies for the first shipment, we will update again tomorrow morning. Thanks.
   We were hit with an FDA Form 2877 request yesterday for a few import shipments that were slated to arrive today. Since the FDA oversees the importation of Radiation Emitting Devices such as DVD Players and basically anything with a Class 1-4 laser, we're affected when they spot check video game hardware. Any shipments containing this hardware are held in their entirety when they spot check. As such, NCS expects deliveries of products originally due TODAY on Thursday or Friday.
   NCS is aware of the fixed version of Gamecube PSO Episode 1+2 [JPN] which ships in December but we have not confirmed our ability to trade our EXPORT copies with Sega. Working on it.
