Personalise Your Table With Persona 4 Coasters!

zenical — Wed, 08 Feb 2012 16:06:20 +0000

I never really bothered about Persona games until I started watching Persona 4 the Anime series. Got to say, I’m loving the anime more and more – such as I am considering to get the PS3 ver of Persona 4: The Ultimate in Mayonaka Arena when it’s out this year!

These lovely coasters are from Surfers Paradise and the diameter for each coaster is 90mm.

A total of 8 characters available for preorder: Narukami Yu, Hanamura Yousuke, Satonaka Chie, Amagi Yukiko, Tatsumi Kanji, Kujikawa Rise, Kuma and Shirogane Naoto.

Item: Persona 4 Coaster
Release Date: March 2012
Retail Price: 840 yen each
Preorder at: CDJapan, Hobby Search.

Thinking of getting Chie and Kuma. :) Kuma is irritating when he’s in human form but as a Teddie, how can one not love him xD.

After LittleBigPlanet 2, It’s LittleBigPlanet Karting?

zenical — Wed, 08 Feb 2012 06:40:10 +0000

LittleBigPlanet 2 was released last year in January. Currently, there are rumors floating around that LittleBigPlanet is getting its own “karting” game. No reason to doubt the rumor really, because the picture below shows a retail poster of the game.

The game is said to be PS Move-compatible and also display in 3D.

So what say you? LBP Karting YEAH! Or oh no?

Naruto Anime Theme Park Attraction Opens Till September

zenical — Tue, 07 Feb 2012 14:00:47 +0000

The Laguna Gamagori marine resort complex announced yesterday that it will host a “Naruto – Memories of Chakra in Lagunasia” theme park attraction from 17 March to 2 September. It will be the tenth anniversary for both Naruto the anime series and the resort! What a way to commemorate!

The event’s main attraction will be “Memories of Chakra,” a recreation of the anime’s famous scenes from the time Naruto sets out on his ninja journey to the beginning of the Shinobi World War. The Lagunasia theme park’s nine areas will also include the “Hokage Monument,” “Konohagakure Village Ninjutsu Dojo,” “Hokage Palace,” and “Ninpoudo” shop where guests can enjoy a menu inspired by the anime and purchase exclusive promotional goods.

Every area of Lagunasia complex will be decorated with a Naruto motif, and visitors can experience all the displays and attractions by participating in the “Sharingan Stamp Rally.” Character shows will also take place during the event.

I am no Narutard, but Naruto has been a part of my life since approximately 8 years ago, and yes I would like to visit it.. If only I could – the theme park is located in Gamagori City in the central Japanese prefecture of Aichi. (which is a 3-hours ride from Tokyo)

The theme park will be based on the Naruto theme from 17 March to 2 September.

PSP Phi Brain Teaser Site Live Now

zenical — Tue, 07 Feb 2012 12:50:01 +0000

Arc System Works has opened a teaser site for Phi Brain: Kami no Puzzle earlier today. You can access the site here. A “puzzle battle adventure” game for the PSP platform will be out in late May.

Few details have been announced for the game conversion. Arc says that it will have an original story and will have a mix of original puzzles and puzzles pulled from the show.

The anime series is currently running, and a second season has already been confirmed.

A puzzle game sounds interesting. Based on what the anime has shown so far, the puzzles are challenging and this game will be definitely worth it.

Tecmo Koei had just released the Dynasty Warriors VS trailer, which was broadcast during the Jump Festa event last December. It’s a bit strange for delaying the release of the trailer but it’s still better than not releasing the trailer at all. You can view the game trailer below:
