Korea’s Hyperdimension Neptunia Limited Edition Is Ready For A Day At The Beach

By Spencer . December 21, 2010 . 11:55am

It might be winter time, but Cyberfront is dreaming about sunshine and sandy beaches. They picked up Hyperdimension Neptunia for Korea and bundled a giant beach towel in the limited edition.

The PlayStation 3 game comes out just in time for late Christmas shoppers on December 24. Other items in the package include a visual art book, soundtrack, and the PlayStation 3 game for 65,000 won ($56).

Here’s a better look at the box art and the saucy towel.

Whoa only $56 for that special edition! That is awesome, I hope NISA decides to give us a special edition (and offer free shipping)

  Well, we have to look at other perspectives… 56$ may not be “much” for us, that buy normal new ps3 games at 60$, but maybe that’s a good amount of money in korea, we dont know how their salary is and that kinda of stuff.

  Welp, NISA is going to give us a Rorona-style LE.
  
  Big box and artbook, can’t really complain.
  
  …I just hope it’s available at Amazon.
  
  For the source, look at the Neptunia trailer NISA just released.

Wow, that’s pretty cheap. I guess the artbook is the one that was included in the japanese LE?

Wohoa that towel looks pretty sexy o.o maybe a bit too much, not that i mind

The only thing I’d really want is that artbook. But that towel.. uh lol that’s just too much, stuff like that is just hilarious. Amazing price for a special edition though.

Looks pretty nice !.

Too bad, Europe probably won´t get a LE/SE, as always

  My memory may be fuzzy, but I recall the following limited editions have been released or have been announced in Europe, but not North America:
  
  Crisis Core
  Dissidia: Final Fantasy
  Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2
  Dragon Ball: Raging Blast 2
  Lord of Arcana
  Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep
  The 3rd Birthday
  Dissidia 012
  
  If anything, especially due to the relative strength of the Euro vs. the dollar, companies would be more inclined to release limited editions in Europe.
  - Xeahnort
    
    I´m speaking of NISA, While Japan and North America get cool things, Europe have to deal with bare-bones instruction booklet in black and white and limited prints.
    
    BTW: LE released by Square-Enix in Europe aren´t so great
    - Code
      
      lol, even in North America most booklets are black and white >w<; If anything I can always open Blazblue:CS's case, it's booklet always makes me laugh.
      - http://tristsantithesis.tumblr.com/ Tsunayoshi Sawada
        
        Well we wont speak of the Activision, Ubisoft, Konami instruction booklets that required one to download the PDF to see the instruction book (well at least its in color…)…
      - alundra311
        
        Why does it make you laugh? Don’t have Blazblue CS.
      - Code
        
        The booklet is black and white, and all of 4 pages long, literally the most bare bones booklet I’ve ever seen, JUST enough to have a cover and quantify being called a booklet >w<

Towel…uh, I guess it’s a good idea to keep dry.

NISA just released their own trailer for the game (shows English dub, too) and in their Premium box set it shows the 36-page artbook:

No towel, though.
- ChaosPaladinFayt
  
  LOL keep dry from doing WHAT exactly? xD
- http://tristsantithesis.tumblr.com/ Tsunayoshi Sawada
  
  Artbook!!!! Yay!!! I like the voices in the dub, epically awesome stuff!
- http://www.twitter.com/christaran Chris Taran
  
  Oh wow, -really- hope they have the Japanese voices as an option.
  
  And you always bring a towel. Always. Also, don’t panic.

    They have never NOT had the Japanese voice option in their PS3 games. I’m sure it’ll be there this time too.

  Ho~ im so going for that limited edition
RagnaXBL

i want that towel
Code

Really subtle towel they got there… I mean seriously, since when is icing even put on what appears to be a corndog?
- http://twitter.com/zoku88 Mykal Valentine
  
  Icicle? Is the word you’re thinking of: icing?
  
  And I’m pretty sure that’s mayonnaise, not icing. (JPN ppl put mayo on a lot of stuff.)
  - Code
    
    Ah my bad >w< spelling mistake fixed. But yeah, I wouldn't have even guessed that as being mayonnaise, I don't think I've even heard of putting mayo on something like that, figured it was a cultural thing I wouldn't have understood opo;
    - M’iau M’iaut
      
      And you would deny her the right to put icing on a corn dog?
      
      The only similar applicable rule I can remember is Dirty Harry’s mantra “Nobody puts ketchup on a hot dog.”
      - Code
        
        I put fries/sweet’n'sour sauce on my hamburgers, so I don’t see why she couldn’t put mayo, or icing, on a corndog >ww<
      - M’iau M’iaut
        
        There, you admitted your mistake…..trying to understand why……
        
        Just remember NickD isn’t responsible for where your mind goes should NISA choose to give us anything approaching that goodie.
      - malek86
        
        What! Why not?
      - M’iau M’iaut
        
        You would hafta ask Clint on that one.
      - Yusaku_Matsuda70s
        
        Because sweet, cheerfully red ketchup is for kiddies. Mustard is for men. Gritty texture, fiercely bitter, and always ready to attack your senses… just like Clint Eastwood himself.
      - malek86
        
        Kiddy? Nah. Blood red ketchup is so much better. You can keep your vomit-colored mustard.

        And I have corrected the comment above…..I gotz no desire to piss off someone who can properly “remove the fingerprints” with a .44 magnum auto mag.
- Yusaku_Matsuda70s
  
  They’re in beachwear, that stuff is coming out of a tube… it’s clearly not icing. It’s SUNTAN LOTION. YUMMY YUM YUM
  - Code
    
    Oh duh! How could I forget delicious, delicious, suntan location! Silly me!
shy_mel

Why not just go all the way to a dakimura? It’s not my kind of thing, but I’d like to see how it would look. Normal on one side, goddess on the other?

Holy Agarest War, Batman! That’s one racy bonus!

that towel…..is just…. :/

  The hot dog they are about to indulge their lips on splooged all over them in white stuff
  
  Just say it
  - Yusaku_Matsuda70s
    
    Mayonnaise bukkake
    
    Just say it
FHOIW

Eeeeh, thought the limited edition was ready for stateside…
SolidusSnake

I doubt the target audience for this game spends much time at the beach. Just sayin’…
- M’iau M’iaut
  
  But using that towel at the beach would be such a waste. When you could like hang it on the wall or find other uses.
  - SolidusSnake
    
    I agree, it would be a crime to ruin such a great collector’s item by taking it to the beach.

      Wise words indeed..
- http://www.facebook.com/people/Tommy-Lee/518924335 Tommy Lee
  
  I think it would take an extremely brave soul to take this to the beach anyways.
  - SolidusSnake
    
    brave, or just shameless D:

Aw man I really hope NISA bring us some kinda box set for this
- M’iau M’iaut
  
  I’m hoping that here we are at January and neither Neptunia or AT3 have shown up for preorder ANYWHERE means some nice, cool, sweet or naughty things might be included here.
Darkrise

Nice LE with a nice price! But I bet canada won’t be getting the gamestop exclusive LE…

ahhhh wish koei ( i think they are the publisher for Neptunia and Ar tonelico Qoga) make some sort of limited edition. Haven’t bought a limited edition game in quiet a while now. I bet it wont sell as much in korea since most of the people there rather play starcraft 2 :P

Everytime I think about this game I think about how Sega shoula localized SEGAGAGA or at the least that one guy finished the fan translation patch for it…

The underaged version of Neptune engaging in sexually symbolic culinary foreplay with the strip-teasing mature version of HERSELF? It doesn’t get much kinkier than that!

What happens next in my overactive imagination can only get better… for that green fish in the plastic bag!
PrinceHeir

i love the hotdog eating poster :D
http://kanpekijan.blogspot.com/ KanpekiJan

How much more suggestive can an image get? xDD

Anyway, hoping for a limited edition here in Europe, looking forward to the game! :D

NISA released a trailer for the US version on Playstation Blog. Looks like we’re getting a limited edition with the artbook. Doesn’t look like the towel is included for those who wanted that lol. It also looks like the boobs got covered up on our boxart lol, not surprised.

WTF? Nao sings the OP theme? I love her!!!! (especially in fripside NAO project)

If there is another version to purchase than just the one with the artbook but has more I would so buy it.

Awesome O.O

Okay uh… I get why there’s a warning for sexual content on the box, but why for discriminating behaviour?
