As expected, this week was quite silent in terms of new import games. This week was AMAZING in terms of news about upcoming handheld systems, toys, movies etc. Just the Japanese import games did not play tango. Don't worry! We got plenty of things to tell so enjoy the weekly import update without import games. And, if you do worry, no, the outlook for the coming weeks is very good. Trust us, look here

Let's start with the only release we had this week. Though this one is good for 5 other games. At least. beatmania IIDX 7th Style is shipping from tomorrow (that makes it 14th of May). Our initial stock is enough to cover 70% of the existing pre-orders. Further stock is anticipated on a daily basis over the next days, even before the second batch is released in Japan.

A completely different story - as you may very well be aware the E3 is happening as we speak. That's good news because we're looking at two major video games systems releases just before the end of this year: Sony's PlayStation Portable (PSP) as well as Nintendo's Nintendo DS. We have dedicated a news story to each of them - certainly not enough but please bear with us.
