For the past few years now, Bandai Namco Entertainment Australia has served as a regional distributor for Nippon Ichi Software America games in both Australia and New Zealand. In most cases they have generally only released standard edition collections, and maybe those with a small extra item or two on a few occasions. Therefore, if you wanted to purchase a limited edition collection of a title, you have generally had to fork out the extra money and purchase it through the NIS America Europe Online Store. This has seemingly changed for Touhou Genso Rondo: Bullet Ballet.
A recent announcement from NIS America has confirmed that the competitive shoot ’em up game will be arriving on store shelves in Australia starting September 9th 2016. But this time around they are offering both the standard and limited editions for purchase through retail outlets.
Similar in many respects to the North American LE (Minus the NISA Online Store exclusive items), the Limited Edition set will include:
- A copy of Touhou Genso Rondo: Bullet Ballet on the PlayStation 4
- A full-colour hardcover artbook
- Original soundtrack with jewel case
- A set of five art prints (6″ x 5″)
- Collector’s Box
- DLC Bundle
If you are interested in picking up either edition, I recommend asking at your local retail stores for their best price.
