Another day, another batch of games shipped to stores. Instead of giving them all their own posts, we grouped them, and so far there are announcements for:

Persona 4 (PS2)

Shortly after an urban youth begins a year-long stay in the countryside town of Inaba, the rural town's peace is shattered by a horrific murder that leaves no clues or suspects. As the lone incident develops into a series of bizarre crimes, he discovers that only he and his friends have the power to solve the baffling case, bring those responsible to justice, and restore harmony to his new home.

A mysterious chain of deaths remains unanswered and only you and your team of gifted supernatural sleuths can uncover the truth. Will you thwart this hidden evil before it is too late?

Key Features

  • Balance your double life – Beyond intense battles, Persona fusion, and new weapon creation exists a normal high school life of friends, classes, and part-time jobs. The way you manage and integrate your activities within each day will determine how you progress through the game.
  • Unprecedented team control – With a greater emphasis on developing bonds in the fight to solve the mysterious murders, strong friendships are key to your success. Directly control teammates in battle, earn greater party support for combat, and master individual Social Links to unlock your party's true potential.
  • Find the true ending – 60+ hours of gameplay thrusts you into a deep mystery where midnight television leads to serial killings. You must investigate murders, rescue those who can be rescued, and unmask the culprit behind it all—or risk being forever shrouded in the fog of doubt.

Every single copy of Persona 4 is a special two-disc set. In addition to the game disc, customers will receive a soundtrack CD featuring selected music from the game’s master composer, Shoji Meguro.

Persona 4, rated "M" for Mature, is now available in North America.

Left Brain Right Brain 2 (NDS)

Using the same DS rotation mechanic as the original hit, the sequel introduces all-new challenges to train both hemispheres of the brain and help players become truly ambidextrous.

Left Brain Right Brain 2 includes an updated graphic presentation and 20 new mini-games based on speed, accuracy, association, recognition, memory and strategy. Each game strengthens the left and right hemispheres of the brain by requiring players to switch hands between games as they rotate the DS in book style play. Afterwards, players can monitor personal progress and assess improvement by reviewing development percentages for each hand. Gamers can also tailor their favorite mental-training routine in the new Exercises mode, while testing 'good' and 'weak' hands via three random games in Ambidexterity Check. Finally, players can compete with a friend in both single and multi-card multiplayer mode to prove who has the mental skills to be truly ambidextrous.

Developed by Kokolo Corporation, Left Brain Right Brain 2 is rated E for Everyone and is now available on NDS at $19.99 SRP.
