It's a Wonderful World (Limited Edition)

Coming out in just another few days time, on the 27 July 2007. It's a Wonderful World Limited Edition by Square Enix is the only gloss sliver limited edition DS lite on the market currently. There is no tag for the price. However, we can assumed that it will be going at around 21000 yen, as seen in previous released limited edition DS lite. Other than the fact that it is gloss sliver and it is a limited edition, I have not got any other reason that makes me wanting to buy it (and add to my collection). The print, from what we can see in the picture, is simple (too simple, I think). So for all those that is going bonkers all this, well, please feel free to get it at this link. (And now, to get back to my game...)

SD Gundam G Generation: Cross Drive (Limited Edition)

Time for another update~ This simple yet great looking (IMHO) Nintendo DS lite is none other than the soon to be released SD Gundam G Generation: Cross Drive limited edition DS Lite. Set to be release on the 9th of August, at 21840 yen, its sure to set all those Gundam fanboys on a queuing spree on that day! Keep your eyes open on eBay, Amazon, Yahoo! Auction or whatever online auction site to get your hands on one of these if you are not in Japan on that day. (Hmm... Time to prepare a tent to start the queuing soon....)

Aternatively, you can also order it from here!

Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Ring of Fate (Limited Edition)

Wow! Has it been a WHOLE month since I last updated this blog?? Can't blame me though. I have been playing with the new game, Animal Crossing: Wild World. I am just not able to stop myself from planting fruit trees, fishing, bugs catching, digging for treasures, talking to town folks, participating in town events, going to my friends' town, inviting others to my town, blar, blar, blar, blar, blar and so on and so on.... So now, I presume you understand my difficulties of putting down my beloved Winning Eleven Limited Edition DS Lite and updating the blog.

Anyway, as you can see in the picture, that is the image of the Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Ring of Fate Limited Edition DS lite. The release date of this baby is on 23 August 2007 for 21,840 yen and comes along with the game Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Ring of Fate game, which, is a great deal! (In MY opinion, that is.) It will only be release in Japan. However, if you are NOT a Japanese or NOT living in Japan; you will still be able to get your hands on one of these by pre-ordering it on online websites, buying from auctions site (at an inflated price, of cos!). And, after all the shipping fees, administration charges and whatever taxes that all those money leeches implement for common folks like us, it might just comes up to a hefty amount. So good luck to all those guys (and gals) that has just set their mind on this. Me? I will be saving my cash for another limited edition DS lite. Which one? Let's all wait and see, shall we?

Final Fantasy lll (Crystal Limited Edition)

Finally after a long struggle, I manage to break myself free of the spell/ curse cast on me by the game Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings. Although I have totally no idea what the game story is throughout my playtime as the game is fully in japanese, I am still strangely attached to the game and find it hard to put it down. Perhaps its the graphics, perhaps its due to the sound or even perhaps its due to just the fact that its a Final Fantasy series game...

Regardless of the perhaps, I just find it hard to put it down. Never mind that, what I am going to show you now will be the earliest Final Fantasy Limited Edition that come out on the Nintendo DS Lite. On the left is the picture of the console. This baby was release on 23 August 2006. The price was only a little more than an average DS Lite and comes bundled with the game. It is no wonder why the set was sold out on the day it was released(Although alot of the set was sold online for a quick profit!).

All right, gotta get back to my game now, I can in fact hear it beckoning me to get back to it... So ja ne for now. Stay tuned for more limited edition DS Lite from Nintendo.

Check out my new toy!!

Wow wow wow, guess what? I just receive my another DS Lite. A limited edition too! This time it is the Nintendo DS Lite, Winning Eleven Limited Edition. Can you imagine my excitement when I finally receive it after it has gone through so many hands... Although I do not know why I will want to purchase 2 DS Lites, I just did. Guess I wanted to start a DS Lite collection, heh heh. For a start, I really loved the black glossy look of the DS Lite. Then its the imprinted design, having make it seems like someone has just scribble on the DS Lite on the tactics to use in a soccer game was really an ingenious idea(Err.. it was ingenious to me, not really sure about how others think of it but well, I was the one who bought it so..... who cares!) , though I will have like it better if the imprinted design will be a little more obvious. Look at the picture, I almost cannot tell that there was anything printed on it. I wonder why Nintendo could not make the design stand out abit more... Well, guess I cannot complain too much about it, I was the one who chose to purchase it afterall. And now, back to my Final Fantasy XII Revenant Wings.

*Many thanks to Alvis, Cheong Mei Kaey, Joanne (and many many more whose names are either too long or I am not sure on how to present it out) for making this import possible!

WOOT!!!

All righty, I have just receive my brand new Nintendo DS Lite: Final Fantasy XII Revenant Wings, Sky Pirate LIMITED EDITION from Japan!! What a beauty it is... I cannot wait to start playing on my new handheld console. Hmm, since I am here, I might as well tell you the difference between a normal DS Lite and a limited edition DS Lite. As everyone know(or should know), a DS Lite comes in many different colours. Theres white, pink, blue, black and etc. However, everynow and then, Nintendo comes out with these DS lites to accompany a new game release. And these DS Lite comes imprint with some pictures to be it associate with the game. A good example will be the picture of MY DS Lite on the left. So what makes me so happy about it? Well.... After the batch is sold out, they are sold out! And for all cases, they are. And unless you are willing to pay more, you will not be able to get it once its sold out(You can get one from here if want, got to pay more like I said). Ok, enough talk, gotta have some fun with my new gadget. Later...

*Many thanks to Candice Cheong, Furuta Hiroyuki & Sugimoto san for making this import possible!
