Merchandise: Etcetera

I'm trying to list only official Koei merchandise here, no cheap Chinese knockoffs or stuff made by fans.

Box Sets

Sometimes, when Koei's feeling the need to confuse me, they'll release a special box set of selected games and merchandise. Here's a list of those box sets and their contents. (Note that these box sets are only released in Japan. North America and Europe just aren't cool.)

Playstation 2 Premium Pack

Playstation 2 Super Value Pack

Shin Sangoku Musou 3 Empires & Moushouden Premium Box

Shin Sangoku Musou 3 Super Premium Box

Shin Sangoku Musou Kouryaku Box

Cellphone Stuff

Also, though strictly speaking it's not merchandise, there is a program mentioned on the Gamecity website allowing people (in Japan, of course) to buy neat things for their cellphones. My Japanese is extremely poor, but this, I think, is the gist of it: you pay a certain amount of money each month to get points, which you use to "buy" things like Dynasty Warriors wallpapers, calendars, clocks, puzzles, and picture frames (like the photo frames used to decorate photos you take in booths at the mall; you can use these with camera phones). Note that these are not physical objects, but little applications for cellphones. The applications use artwork from the game, some of the samples even I haven't seen before. Possibly, you can choose which pictures you want to use. Also, possibly, you can use sound, maybe voices, from the games as ringtones (I'm very unsure of this... it's hard to translate). I don't have a clear understanding of it, but I thought this was worth a mention.
