Catherine Famitsu DX Pack

Atlus knew exactly what they were doing with this one. The Catherine Famitsu DX Pack for Xbox 360 is a Japanese-exclusive collector's piece that wraps one of the most daring puzzle games of the generation in a package dripping with premium extras. You're looking at a set of three full-sized 297x420mm posters, a 70x120mm arm rest mini cushion modeled after the pillow item from the game, a SoundDisc and Artbook featuring 11 tracks from composer Meguro Masashi alongside illustrations and commentary, and a set of three telephone cards with original artwork from the legendary Shigenori Soejima.

The telephone cards alone are a collector's item in their own right, given Soejima's status as one of the most recognized character designers in gaming. Catherine was already a conversation starter on shelves, a mature, weird, deeply personal game about relationships and anxiety dressed up as a block-pushing nightmare. The Famitsu DX Pack elevates that into something you display with intention.

This is a Japan-only release tied to one of the most respected gaming publications in the world, packaged for a game that found a devoted cult following. For import collectors building a 360 library that goes beyond the Western mainstream, this is the kind of piece that makes people stop and ask questions. And you'll have plenty of answers.
