«©NCSX» In the far-flung future, NCS envisions a world of entertainment where reality meshes with virtual reality to produce immersive experiences for users. We're talking about feeling, smelling, and tasting in addition to seeing and hearing so that you're really there in some digital labyrinth or smoky tavern. Before that happens however, the consumer product industry has to take baby steps to the promised land.

A few weeks ago, NCS stocked the Cyber Maid Alice product which featured a virtual desktop maid. That was a baby step. Next up, Bandai's Tuttuki Bako which features interactive digital objects that respond to external stimuli. Simply poke an index finger into the side of the gadget and you'll be able to push around a little panda, disturb a girl, cause an octopus to squirt ink, and perform other simple actions. A sample movie may be viewed on Bandai's website.

Preorders have shipped as of last week but please note that this item in on backorder; NCS expects this item to be restocked later this week or by next week.
