Suikoden Ipod Nanos are here!!!

Post by whileheavenwept »

Check it out, Konami has hooked up with Apple to make custom Ipod Nanos featuring the Suikoden series. Aint that magnificent?! It comes with an engraved rune of your choice (one of 7 different runes) on the back of the nano, the Gensosuikoden logo on the front, an official Suikoden Ipod Nano carrying case, and lastly, an engraved rune on the earphones!!! Spectacular.

"This iPod, with accompanying carrying case, can be special ordered to feature one of seven different runes on the back – the True Fire Rune, True Water Rune, True Lightning Rune, Sun Rune, Soul Eater, the Rune of Beginning, or the Rune of Punishment."

I'm not sure if this is available to the west or not, haven't tried to order yet.

Here is the official link to the product (Japanese, w/ pictures)

Here are the two pictures of the Nano itself

That's cool. Too bad Nanos are a complete waste.

And I was thinking this was saying they've finally brought them to the US v.v how disappointing... Also, guy, there was already a topic somewhere about this.

The Genso Suikoden logo never made it to the final product. The symbols of the True Rune were not engraved on the earphones, they were simply printed. Also, it was a short period of time during which Konami was accepting orders for the iPod nano. It is no longer in prodiction any more. The more thing to mention, the Soul Eater topped the list of most requested iPod nano.

That doesn't surprise me at all, since the Soul Eater is the best rune ever >.>

Oh man, there isn't a True Wind Rune one! That would've been sooooo perfect :cry:
I might've actually saved for one if there had been..

Sounds like it isn't regarded as a main rune of Suikoden III after all.

Only the games' main true runes are featured this time. Soul Eater, the Rune of Beginning, the three Fire Bringer true runes, the Rune of Punishment and the Sun Rune.

Yes, I see. Luc definitely wasn't a hero or anything, but you'd think that if they have the fire, water, earth, etc in there, that wind would be included.
:roll: oh well!
