Products
This
upcoming DC title is gettin' groovier with every passing day. Gotta
love those t-shirts!
November 3, 1999
Sega
has revealed a few details for their upcoming dance game Space
Channel 5. If you've read our preview of the game, and our
interview with producer Tetsuya Mizuguchi, you're up to date with
most of the details on the game, which is set for a December 16th
Japanese release at the price of 5800 YEN. The title will be only
single player, and is being classified under the genre of "SF
Comedy," with the "SF" standing for Science Fiction. We also have
some rather unfortunate details regarding the use of the VMU.
Apparently, the game will use the device exclusively for saving (5
blocks).
Sega has also passed on some cool shots of various products
related to the game. Most of these were used by Sega exclusively at
the Tokyo Game Show and the various other Space Channel 5
events.
These stylish T-Shirts were worn by Tokyo Game Show staff
this past September. Baby blue and pink . . . our favorite colors!
Below, you see Naho-chan, the model portraying the Ulala
character at TGS, sporting the full-on Ulala costume. Hey, if you
manage to send us a picture of yourself in one of these costumes,
you'll not only get Fruit of the Week award, but you'll be a prime
candidate for Fruit of the Year as well!
These 18cm Morolien dolls can be used in various ways.
Finally, we come to this one of a kind Space Channel
5 balloon. This item would fit in nicely right next to the giant
cardboard cutout of The Rock in our video capture room.
