Specifically, the Tokyo-based purveyor of Japanese RPGs is recognizing the milestone by selling a slew of porcelain platters, plates and cups that feature artwork related to the quirky series.
My favorite of the bunch: the following cup-and-saucer set that'll only set you back about $200.
The seven-inch platter seen below is pretty sweet too, though--plus, it's comparatively "cheap" at $150.
And then there's this rather colorful five-inch plate, which will run you just $86.50 if you buy it via shopncsx.com. (It's only $60 or so when purchased through the Square Enix estore, although I can't say I know how a foreigner is supposed to accomplish that task.)
To ogle the rest of Square Enix's SaGa anniversary dishes (including a couple that ring in at just under $10,000 apiece), head over to store.jp.square-enix.com/special/saga.
I agree. The cup and saucer set would make an awesome impression for gamers visiting the home. Square Enix should branch out and do mugs, cereal bowls, and other things too. great post!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Bruce! And I agree wholeheartedly that SE should make more of these products--especially if they feature Dragon Quest or Final Fantasy sprites or illustrations, in my opinion.
ReplyDeleteHi i cant figure out... This gameboy box on link (with tetris game in bundle) its the second release? or this on post? (with gray base and red/yellow with frames).
ReplyDeleteThank you!
They're so pretty I think I would have trouble putting food on them.
ReplyDeleteOh, me too, Sam. They'd be used as decoration only in my home!
ReplyDeleteHello, Marden! Yes, this was the second packaging design used for the original GameBoy in North America, I believe. If that's what you're wondering? Here's how the first design looked: https://fbcdn-sphotos-d-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-frc3/t1.0-9/s403x403/10257842_645887572125976_7078507679950515021_n.png
ReplyDeleteSo... this picture box on the post is what version? Thrid one?
ReplyDeleteI am shock that they made porcelain. Do they have FinalFantasy or Chrono Trigger? XD
ReplyDeleteBut my goodness, the prices.....
Yep, I have a feeling the fact that they're made of porcelain is why they're so expensive XD
ReplyDeleteThe packaging shown in this post (my photo) is of the second version. The one shown in the link I included in my last comment to you was the first version.
