  • Unboxing: Shadowrun Sixth World Beginner Box (Shadowrun Sixth Edition)

    Unboxing: Shadowrun Sixth World Beginner Box (Shadowrun Sixth Edition)

    I know! It’s been roughly two years since I’ve written anything! What can I say? I bought a house, got some cats, painted a ton of miniatures and just kind of burned out on writing. So what could bring me back? Pokémon Sword and Shield? A RPG based on the writing of Carl Barks? The…

  • Unboxing of Tales of Berseria Collector’s Edition

    Unboxing of Tales of Berseria Collector’s Edition

    I’ve shrunk my collector’s edition spending in recent months for a number of different reasons, but not the least of which is that the sets as a whole don’t offer much in the way of value relative to what is being charged for them. The Tales of series is one in which I’ve kept up…

  • Unboxing of World of Final Fantasy Collector’s Edition

    Unboxing of World of Final Fantasy Collector’s Edition

    Since its announcement, World of Final Fantasy has pretty much lived in the shadows. It debuted to a rather muffled response from the public and was forgotten about until its release date was finally unveiled. Previously, it would’ve landed the month after Final Fantasy XV, which likely would have overshadowed any potential fanfare it may…

    Monthly Girls’ Nozaki-kun Limited Edition Premium Box Set Publisher: Sentai Filmworks Runtime: 300 minutes Release Date: March 29, 2016 Available Editions: Complete Collection – DVD – Blu-Ray – DVD & BD If One Punch Man was the anime of 2015 (because let’s be real here), then Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun would be my top anime for…

  • Unboxing of One Punch Man Volume 2 DVD (Japanese Import)

    Unboxing of One Punch Man Volume 2 DVD (Japanese Import)

    Importing anything can be painful. Which is the more the reason to do so if you want to support the official release while waiting for it to come out for your region. In Japan, home releases for anime are handled differently compared to what we see for the West. They tend to go nuts with…

  • Unboxing of Final Fantasy Explorers Collector’s Edition

    Did you ever find yourself playing Monster Hunter and think to yourself “I wish I was doing this but with Final Fantasy characters and monsters”? Me neither, but knowing that it’s actually a thing makes it sound really appealing. So when a collector’s edition of Final Fantasy Explorers was announced, I was all in. It…

  • Unboxing of Xenoblade Chronicles X Special Edition

    There was a time where I doubted the original Xenoblade Chronicles would ever get a western release, much less a potential sequel. Yet, here we are with a special edition to boot. At approximately $30 more than the MSRP for the regular edition, you can have a long box containing an art book, art print…

  • Unboxing of Tales of Zestiria Collector’s Edition

    Hey, look at that! A reasonably named set to add to my collection (putting aside the meaningless word, Zestiria, of course). Even though the latest entry of the Tales franchise is releasing to both the PS3 and PS4, it’s only the latter that’s receiving the Tales of Zestiria Collector’s Edition. This whopping $129.99 set is…

  • Unboxing of Dragon Quest Heroes: The World Tree’s Woe and the Blight Below Slime Collector’s Edition

    The fall flood of gaming releases isn’t over yet, which means it’s time for another unboxing. On deck this week is the Dragon Quest Heroes: The World Tree’s Woe and the Blight Below Slime Collector’s Edition (are you kidding me?) The game is Square Enix’s attempt to cash in the current trend of sending their…

  • Unboxing of Persona 4: Dancing All Night Disco Fever Edition

    Welcome to the second unboxing of a Persona 4: Dancing All Night collector’s edition on this site. In case you missed it, the first was of Japan’s (insert string of meaningless words) Pack, which is admittedly much cooler by comparison. Regardless, this one has some neat stuff in it and you can get it with…

  • Unboxing of DanganRonpa Another Episode: Ultra Despair Girls Limited Edition

    We’re at round three of DanganRonpa limited editions, this time around for the spinoff game DanganRonpa Another Episode: Ultra Despair Girls (man, that’s a mouthful). As of this writing, you can pick one up for yourself on NISA’s online store for $64.99. You’ll have to act soon though, because the stock levels have dipped into…

  • Unboxing of Final Fantasy Type-0 HD Collector’s Edition

    Well folks, it’s about that time. Time for what, you ask? If you said “time to play that Final Fantasy XV demo!” you’d be mostly correct, except that it’s still downloading. So instead, I’m going to take a bunch of pictures of the stuff that came with that download pamphlet. And what came bundled with…

  • Unboxing: Guilty Gear Xrd Playstation 4 Standard Edition (Sony PS4)

    Check out these unboxing images of the PS4 Standard Edition!

  • Unboxing of Kingdom Hearts HD II.5 ReMIX Collector’s Edition

    While both Kingdom Hearts HD games have gotten their own limited editions in the form of artbook/case hybrids, it isn’t until Kingdom Hearts HD II.5 ReMIX that Square Enix made a collector’s edition proper. It contains a steelbook case, an artbook (separate from the case), a Heartless plushie, and a pin. Oh, and let’s not…

  • Unboxing of Theatrhythm Final Fantasy: Curtain Call Collector’s Edition

    You may have noticed the sudden influx on Square Enix Store exclusive collector’s editions (see: Lightning Returns and Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD). It’s both a blessing and a curse, as it does mean that if you are a fan of their franchises, there are more neat new sets for you to indulge in. On the…

  • Unboxing of DanganRonpa 2: Goodbye Despair Limited Edition

    If you already witnessed my unboxing of the original DanganRonpa game, then you knew that I wouldn’t pass up the chance to snatch the second as well. Especially since it promises more goodies than were included the first time around. It went on sale at a $59.99 price point on NISA’s online store, though it…
