Reason? Apparently there was an incident that’s been getting so much Japanese media coverage that the producers of the show had no choice but the erase the following images. Talk about awful timing…

“18 Year Old Girl Confined For 3 Months, Restrained By collar, Chains “Call me master”

Kobayashi Yasuyoshi (24), unemployed, was arrested by police on the 11th, suspected of confining, torturing, and sexually assaulting a girl (18 at the time) for three months in an apartment in Tokyo last year. He had previously been convicted of a similar crime and sentenced to three years prison, with that suspended to 5 years probation which he was serving at the time of this incident. He had been married and divorced 4 times, and those who he had been married to reported the same kind of abuse. Police confiscated more than 1000 adult PC game CD-ROMS, sailor uniforms and other cosplay items, and also adult manga from his house in Sapporo.”

-click above- (‘Guilty Gear Dust Strikers’ for the DS)

From the looks of it, ‘Judgement’ seems to be a side-scrolling beat-em-up game, similar to Final Fight. On the other hand, ‘Dust Strikers’ seems to use more of the Isuka’s style of a 4player melee mode.

More screenshots here and here.

According to an article published in the May 17th edition of Japan’s Mainichi Shimbun, the PS3 will sell for “less than 50,000 yen each.” That translates to about $460 US dollars, making it one of the most expensive mass-market videogames consoles ever created…

Man this game gets sweeter and sweeter looking with every trailer/promo that gets released…

First off, the screen is waaaay to damn small. I mean how are you suppose to read text on it from your fav RPG. But then again, some people might find this tiny device both convenient and useful (or just like it ’cause it looks ‘cute’ or whatever) and might wanna pick one up for themselves.

Additional Info
