SHIAT!

Remember this post HERE?

Well apparently I did not watch THAT space diligently enough because its sold out in less then 8 hours. Yeap. First they put a PRE-ORDER opening soon. I went to sleep and when I woke up the next day I get a big red OUT OF STOCK stamped on my face. WHAT THE HELL!

And I wasn't even the only one that was caught off guard. A friend of mine which wanted to buy that also discovered the same crap when he woke up. SIGH! Well, I found another place that sell it. YESASIA.

But don't bother because they are selling the damn thing DOUBLE the price! GAH! I think I am gonna sulk in the corner. Sigh

Taiko no Tatsujin DS

Lots of raving review. Most say this is a good game, I say its a good deal. And do you know why?

The game cost the same as every other hot games. But it also gives you 2 extra "cute" stylus to play the game with. Personally, I would say this is an added value. If you like rhythm game such as EBA, Ouendan and Nodame Cantible. You might want to give Taiko no Tatsujin a look.

But there is also a problem when playing this game. Both your hand would be holding a stylus, your DS would have to be left on its own device on a desk. I own a Play Stand DS Lite which is a handy tool to hold your DS on display or to hold your DS when you are playing a game such as Taiko no Tatsujin. Check it out

Animal Crossing DS Stylus

Animal Crossing DS Stylus
I missed the first batch of Animal Crossing DS Stylus featuring Tom Nook and Crazy Redd. 2 of my favourite character. It's too bad that this time around they are not featuring them in the stylus.

There are 6 available character. Frankly I can only name 3 of them. What about you guys?
The Stylus will be available on October. Do make your preorder now. It is well known any Animal Crossing related item gets out of stock fast.

Harry Potter Carrefour Rush!

ITS P DAY! Aye, A lot of kids and adults are screaming in delight or Anguish depending on whats happening to them. And yes, Today is POTTER day!

2 thing first.

Carrefour and Tesco decided to sell the FINAL Harry Potter book at a 40 ringgit discount to consumer. Aye, They are selling it at RM69.90. Thats 20 USD FYI. Anyway, This of course created quite a huge uproar among the 4 retailer. MPH, Popular, Times and Harris bookstores. They have decided to not sell the Last Harry Potter book as a show that they are not marking up the price to RM109 on purpose. Kudos to them you say.

I say they just shot themselves in the foot. 7 times too. As you can see, Kinokuniya and Borders are continuing to sell it. Carrefour and Tesco does not feel the sting at all. The ONLY person that got affected is the readers itself. Not a smart move.

Read more about it HERE.

2ndly

I woke up at 6.30 this morning, confident that no one will be lining up at the Carrefour in Sri Petaling. Reaching there at around 6.50, my confident was further reinforced with the lack of car there. I was screaming in joy and silently celebrating my small victory.

Boy, was I ever so wrong.

No biggie, I calmed down and lined up. And for the 2nd time in that day, I am confident that all this will proceed calmly and orderly. Meh, I was wrong again. And this is what happened next

1) The shutter opened
2) The auntie and uncle in the front Sprinted across the first 6 feet into the entrance, rolled under the still opening shutter, Jumped up ala Jacky Chan style and sprinted for the Harry Potter book!
3)Orderly line was gone, everyone was running at this point
4) Grab the book and line up at the counter again after some treasure hunt inside Carrefour. ( They kept the book in some obscure place)
5) I was prepared to fling a bottle of Red Bull at the first person that screamed " I GOT THE BOOK", Thankfully the projectile stay in my bag and they left the scene unscathed.
6) You know who got the first book and paid for it? An Auntie. A very OLD auntie. I guess all those jogging helps huh.
Thats a LONG Queue...
Everyone is either eagerly flipping through the book or trying to look as normal as possible
Check out the Queue !
Anyway, The first 100 person that bought the book will be able to get a free gift. I was fully prepared for some funky Harry Potter style paper bag or something. But... Let's just say today is Not my day.






Nice bag is a good start to nice stuff.. Right? NOT!
A colouring book and a Pen! WTF
At Least this one is nice

Pre-Order Free Gifts

After a draught of over 2 months from all the Hyped out cool games. A week from now, there will be none stop launching of games for the next 1 month or so. Which is very bad for people with little budget like me.

To pull in more sales, games are now starting to give Pre-Order Gifts bundled with the game. 2 of the more noticeable games are

Subarashiki Kono Sekai: It's a Wonderful World



Which comes with a miniature kitten to called Pochi a stuffed cat that plays into Shiki Misaki's (IAWW's female lead) special attack (quoted from DSfanboy)

Taiko no Tatsujin DS

Which comes with not 1 but 2 Taiko Stylus for the game. Pretty cool item. Not really that pretty though.

What with the impending launching of the game in about 6 days time, Lets start the count down with some Funky Soundtrack from the game itself!

Halo DS Exist!

To all you skeptic out there! Eat your heart out! Because Halo for DS EXIST!

I think I’m going to ask the forbidden question… was there ever Halo for the DS?

FO: I believe we got pitched for it several times.

BG: Every once in awhile it comes up. Somebody out there some developer pitches and tries to make it happen.

FO: Microsoft does publish DS games or licenses them, I think to THQ.

BG: It’s very likely that somebody at some point in time created a prototype and tried to pitch it.

FO: Which is probably what Casamassina is talking about.

BG: But there has never been an officially funded or sanctioned development of any sort of DS Halo game.

There you have it! Halo exist! Somewhere out there that is. But thats beside the point. Excerpt taken from Siliconera. Click HERE to get the full interview

Animal Crossing Plush Doll

Remember the summer sales? It was not THAT long ago. Around a week ago? Anyway. During that time, I helped a friend of mine to purchase the Animal Crossing Plushie. He has been going berserk with buying plushie here and there. And no, It's not for his GF. Read HERE to know more

I am currently holding both his plushie due to the fact that he is too far from me to pass it to him. And you would really have to believe this. He have been pestering me for picture of the Plushie for the past *check calender* 4 days. Yeap, he is that anxious to find out how they look. So here they are, in all their glories!

I got myself this fellow here while my friend got himself an Ichigo in Bankai mode! WOhoo! 2 of the only fellow with their sword out! How cool is that!

Bleach EX 2 Phone Strap Gashapon




P.S: I know my fingernail is dirty damn it!

Character: Drizzt Do'Urden

Drizzt Do'Urden, one of the most confused character I have ever encountered in a book. He was born in a society of darkness. Where killing is revered, enslaving others are a trade and every dark corner of the shadow means 3 blade waiting to slice a person's throat apart. Drizzt himself is an optimistic person. Although born and thought to be as ruthless as possible. He despise the society he lives in and strives to help anyone and everyone. He has vow never to kill a single humanoid. Except for Orcs,Goblins and various other evil incarnation.

Drizzt carries a magical figurine (a "Figurine of wondrous power (Onyx Panther)"), which summons his Black Panther called Guenhwyar, Guenhwyar is superbly intelligent and is the closest allies to Drizzt.

His main weapons are his two scimitars, named Twinkle and Icingdeath. Twinkle is a magical elven-forged blade. It emits a blue hue when held, reflecting the starlight its creator held dear. It is now known by Drizzt that he can control its light by so willing it. Icingdeath was found in the treasures of a white dragon of the same name, whom Drizzt and Wulfgar slew together in the first series of Icewind Dale Trilogy. It gives its wielder protection from any form of fire. Before this in the first Trilogy of the Legend of Drizzt, he weilds 2 scimitars forged by the greatest smith in Menzoberranzan and taken from the armory of the house of Do'Urden. The weapon served him long and well before it finally broke when he left the dark world of the underdark.

What really interest me in this character is how confused he can be, how he strive to see the good in everyone even though some would be repulsed by that idea alone.How he live alone before he found his companion. The length he goes to, to protect the one closest to him, how angst he was when he battled his mentor in scimitar and finally forced to watch his mentor/father die in an effort to save Drizzt's life. His skill with his scimitar can be said as a dance that is as elegant as a flowing water yet deadly. When he wields his scimitar, it has been said that quite a number of people will be mesmerized at how fast it twirl and how it dance a dance of death.

For those interested in him, you might want to look around for the novel. The Legend Of Drizzt.
Start from the first book in the legend series and you will be surprised of what you find there.

Pokemon Lover Unite!

493 Pokemon. Not many of you guyz can catch that amount of pokemon. You would have to be at certain place at certain time or use certain pokeball to catch certain pokemon. Meh... Lot of hard work for me.

How many Pokemon DS game that you own then? 1? 2? Some fanatic might own all. Heck, people like me would have to think 3 times to own more then 1 pokemon game. Anyway, enough with the rant. You guyz should know by now that I LOVE KEYCHAIN and GASHAPON. So I most probably will get one of this just to spite a fellow friend or 2 :P

Well, what you waiting for? Go clicking then!

Zelda: Phantom Hourglass US Box Art

That would be the possible boxart for the upcoming Zelda Phantom Hourglass DS. Its a bit less kiddish then the Japanese version but boy, I love the brown background with a huge dark looming ship. Makes the game looks a bit darker and mysterious doesn't it?

The Legend of Zelda Phantom Hourglass will be out on the 1st of October 2007.

I have already left the game in my shopping cart at Play-Asia. How about you?

Zelda

Call your self a fan of Zelda?

No self respecting Self portrayed Zelda Fan would be caught dead without a Zelda item somewhere on their body. I would really ( really ) like to get one of this


But the said item was sold out 2 years ago around 2005. So meh.. I guess I will make do with either a

Touch Pen Knock Metal (The Legend of Zelda) from Tomy

or

The Legend of Zelda Fabric Case (green) from Sanei

or

The Legend of Zelda Fabric Case (blue) from Sanei

I have no idea how those looks but meh. Anything Zeldish would do well in my dictionary
I do hope they will make a keychain or phone strap thingy of Zelda again. Those on top really really look nice..

For those that have been too out of touch with gaming world, a The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass english version is expected to be out by August this year. Currently the japanese version called er... The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass is already out in the market. I would suggest waiting for the english version if you can't really read japanese as Zelda games can be categorized under ARPG which means it involves puzzle solving and some reading.
