Update: December 14, 2006 «©NCSX» Taking place two centuries after the Rockman EXE series, the world of Ryuusei no Rockman shares its existence with a parallel world known as the Radio Wave World. Three satellites in orbit above the planet named Dragon, Leo, and Pegasus keep the Radio World operational and intact. As the story begins, a 15 year-old lad named Subaru Hoshikawa is moping around and still hasn't gotten over the loss of his father three years ago. Early in the game, Subaru runs into a trio of his classmates led by a blonde girl named Luna Shirogane who is the class president. Accompanying her is the brute known as Gonta Ushijima and a braniac named Kizamaro Saishoin. Luna asks Subaru if he's going to class but he replies in the negative and walks up some stairs to an elevated area with a telescope on one end. While there, he dons a pair of green-colored glasses known as a Visualizer thinking that it may help him get in contact with his missing father. Immediately after putting them on, the Radio Wave World becomes visible but he's walloped by something and falls on his back. When he wakes up, a mechanical creature with green flames bursting from its posterior is hovering over him. The creature introduces itself as "Warlock" and explains to Subaru that he hails from the FM World. In the midst of their introductions, the world shakes and the two "merge" and run off on a grand adventure. Ryuusei no Rockman shares many parallels with the Rockman EXE games in terms of visual design but the battle system has been revamped into a forward view where the camera takes in the action from behind the hero and the enemies are seen in the distance. The ubiquitous internet of Rockman EXE has been replaced with a Radio Wave world and battle chips are now known as battle cards. View the back cover and screenshots on the main NCSX website. Brother Band System The Nintendo DS' Wifi communication function is utilized to connect players together like a band of brothers. If you connect with numerous "brothers" in a network of sorts, your power increases and you may use battle cards within the network. Bonus Schwag All preorders will include a bonus Ryuusei (shooting star) light that's connected to a thick strand of rope and is meant to be worn like a necklace. To light up the star, remove the plastic barrier that separates the battery inside from the terminal connector. Once activated, the star blinks continuously until you press the little button underneath to stop the shiny action. While supplies last, we will include the bonus with new orders.
