Okamiden - DS

[Geoff D]

NCSX preorders are up for $158.90 + shipping :-O

Just snagged one for 8000 yen thanks to my gaming saviour (yes you know who you are hehe), seriously wtf at that price ncsx are doing, considering the shipping options from them to the uk you might as well add on another ?40 thats gonna be a pricy object to import from them.

I presume they're buying at retail price rather than dealer, hence the mark up.

Yeah a friend ordered me one from e-capcom's site so for once im not going to pay through the ass for something, a nice change really. Still from a dealer thats quite a big markup.

Shame the shipping from ncsx is so outragous i was going to buy a taiko ds stand & a ds lite case & they wanted £40+ in shipping there were no other options.

damn, I wanted this but no chance at that price...

US version available for pre-order at Play-Asia.

Another trailer not sure if it's the newest though, looking really nice. The ds usually does ropey 3D but it looks like capcom have used the artstyle to it's advantage.

Having played the demo at SDCC, Okamiden is looking pretty nice and the 3D was fine imo...

A-MA-ZING!!

With NCSX was that standard USPS postage? The first options are always courier but I'm pretty sure you can get cheaper "normal" post as that's how K-on PSP is coming from them to me.

May I ask the control scheme....I couldn't play the Zelda ds game as I loathed the controls...(I understand the world and his dog got on with them tho)

I'm imagining D-Pad + stylus...Hope I'm right..?

[Mayhem]

D-pad and buttons, the stylus is only used for the paintbrush techniques.

[ShadowDancer]

Thanks Mayhem.

That's ruined it.

Aside from the D-pad being close to useless on the DS, I really can't get on with games which force you to duel wield both D-pad and stylus ignoring the impracticality in doing so. China Town Wars was near unplayable to me because of the hot wiring mini-game whenever you took a car.

Its so cool i played some for it at comic con i really like think i spent about an hour or so with it love the whole thing now this is a must buy
