Konamistyle gives out the best preorder bonus ever for the new SMT game photo

[As orginally posted on Tomopop]

It's funny I should come across this now, considering that I have actually been replaying Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner and recently did a feature about the title. Siliconera has posted the trailer for the sequel, Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha vs. King Abaddon, which I am ridiculously excited about (check it out after the jump).

The preorder bonus from Konamistyle for the upcoming game is the amazing Raiho plush you see above, which is a hybrid of Raidou from the Devil Summoner series and Jack Frost, Atlus' memorable mascot. Before you get as worked up as I did, I have to dash your dreams -- the item is only available in Japan. SAD. Let's hope Atlus reads this and takes mercy on American fans with a hard on for everything Devil Summoner.

Wait.

Konamistyle? When did they come into the picture for this game?

I never got into the SMT series myself, was always too busy with the year's FF. :(

I absolutely adore Jack Frost. I'd love to have that little fellow in my home. Couldn't hurt to have one of his flaming Jack-o-Lantern pals too. It'd be amazing if they did that with a rare variant like what Konami did with the Elebits preorder promotion.

PS. Anyone ever play Jack Bros. for the Virtual Boy? It has the distinction of being the first Shin Megami Tensei game released in the US. It's a fun time-based maze game, and arguably one of the best titles on the forsaken system. Plus, you get the joy of controlling one of those darlin' lil' guys.

*points at last bit of the video*

Why is it that I spot the character of Nocturne on the game on the right? O_O

Btw, I think that anyone who is unhappy at the whole Jack Frost non-release should head to the Atlus forums and petition for it. You never know...
