Pre-ordering NARUTO: Ultimate Ninja 3 Made Easier!

Some of you have already begun to pre-order NARUTO: Ultimate Ninja 3 and have shown us proof but for those of you who haven't pre-ordered yet but will soon, the process of showing us your proof is now easier than before!

Why would you want to let us know that you've pre-ordered NARUTO: Ultimate Ninja 3 you say? Because Hokage's Room is the only place where you can receive a rare gift with your pre-order! So if you have pre-ordered and want to show us proof through Mission 03: NARUTO: Ultimate Ninja 3 Pre-orders, here is the new format for submitting your proof to us:

 

In-Store Gamestop/EBGames orders:

Simply enter five values on your pre-order receipt exactly as they appear to confirm your pre-order purchase. Check out this graphic to get a visual of where the values are.

(1) Date of preorder
(2) Cashier's ID and name
(3) Item #
(4) Customer #
(5) Customer Name

We will confirm this data, and if correct, will award you the ryo and put you on the list to receive the pre-order gift if all is well.

Online Gamestop/EBGames orders:

Simply enter three values on your pre-order online receipt exactly as they appear on your order status.

(1) Order #
(2) Email address used to order
(3) Two-character state abbervation the item is being delivered to

We will confirm this data, and if correct, will award you the ryo and put you on the list to receive the pre-order gift if all is well.

Non Gamestop/EBGames orders:

Non Gamestop/EBGames preorders MUST be confirmed by a visual. Just send in a photo of your receipt or a screenshot of your order. When we confirm the visual, we will award you the ryo and put you on the list to receive the pre-order gift if all is well. If you ordered from Gamestop/EBGames, you can submit your information visually if you think it's easier.

 

There you have it. It's that simple. Of course, please do not submit to Mission 03 if you DO NOT have a pre-order receipt.  

 

Remember, the earlier you pre-order the better your chances will be at winning the 25,000 mega ryo that is randomly given out to one pre-orderer every Friday from now until release!

NARUTO: Ultimate Ninja Heroes 2 Announced!

Have you heard?! NARUTO: Ultimate Ninja Heroes 2: The Phantom Fortress is set for release in June and we here at Hokage's Room are super excited to be a part of its release. IGN recently released game details:

"With more than twenty characters -- who will each be playable with special techniques and jutsu -- pulled from the TV show, Phantom Fortress' story mode will have Naruto and his pals battling through a flying fortress that has descended on Hidden Leaf Village. Namco Bandai promises more than 100 different floors for the fortress that will be filled with battles, quizzes and other mini-games.

When you're not in the mood to take on aerial doom, the game will allow you to go at it in six types of two-player battles such as one on one, one vs. two and so on. The fights will take advantage of the PSP's ad-hoc capabilities both through multi-UMD play and game sharing."

Nice. Very nice. I'll be sure to bring you more info on NARUTO: Ultimate Ninja Heroes 2: The Phantom Fortress as it comes my way!
