Today has been full of interesting releases, mainly for the PlayStation2™ platform:

After we received the first batch of Winning Eleven 7 International [Limited Edition] yesterday (most preorders were cleared already), we also received the first stock of the standard release version today. Approx. half of all pending preorders for Winning Eleven 7 International were processed today with the remainder left to ship until end of this week. New orders are welcome at US$ 59.90.

As second interesting title, we received the Asian release version of Final Fantasy X-2 International + Last Mission today. Those few customers who have preordered the Asian version will receive a shipping notification from us today. New orders for this version are welcome at US$ 59.90 only.

All customers who have preordered the Japanese release version of Final Fantasy X-2 International + Last Mission have to bear a little more patience, our shipment is expected to arrive around Thursday/Friday (this affects over 90% of all customers since most preorders were placed for this version). Any customer who still wants to switch from his Japanese preorder over to the Asian version is welcome to drop us an e-mail.

Both versions are expected to be identical, the only difference is that the Asian version includes a small instructions sheet with basic control details in English and Chinese - next to the Japanese manual of course - . The game itself is identical, even the Final Fantasy VII Advent Children trailer found space on the Asian release version disc.

Finally to clarify a small issue, Final Fantasy X-2 International + Last Mission features English language dialogs (spoken language), however subtitles as well as the control menu are Japanese only and cannot be switched to English. Everyone who played Final Fantasy X-2 before can however easily adopt the game system.

New orders for Final Fantasy X-2 International + Last Mission (Asian version) are welcome to ship within 24h at US$ 59.90, while the Japanese version is priced at US$ 64.90 for new orders to ship in the end of this week.

Last but not least, heading over to a summary of all further releases from today:

Pop'n Music 9

Gunbird 1&2

SD Gundam G Generation Seed

Gallop Racer Lucky 7

Metal Slug 5 (Neo Geo™)



Moving over to a couple of restocks, the Japanese version of Sengoku Musou and a couple of Sengoku Musou [Treasure Box Edition] (Japanese version) came in yesterday and today with a remainder of the limited edition sets left to arrive until Thursday. Further restocked are Do Don Pachi Daioujou DV, Taiko no Tatsujin & Taiko no Tatsujin Doki!. (all PS2™)

On time for all Final Fantasy X-2 International orders, we also stocked up quantities of Final Fantasy X International (shipping as Japanese version with Bonus DVD or Asian release version).

Lastly, our second shipment of Famicom Edition Gameboy Advance SP™ consoles (110V model & 220V Asian model) plus all Famicom Edition games arrived. All games are now in stock in good quantities apart from Mario Bros. and The Legend of Zelda which appear to be moving fastest.
