21 September, 2004 -Community section Online!

 I suppose I should update since I haven't in over a week, huh? Haven't done anymore on the site yet because I'm... umm.. 'researching' for article I'm going to do for players just starting out in the game. ^ ^;;

 In real news: The Community section of www.digimonccg.com is now up and running. It's basicaly a message board, but the mods work for Bandai and answer questions about the game and such. They're still working on the FAQ and the 'Join the Game Team' section, but the Community is a good start : )

9 September, 2004 -Booster 1 Gallery

 I suppose you're all wondering where I've been for the last... over 2 weeks, huh? No, I wasn't on vacation too; I was busy with stuff... *hides remote* ehehehe.. hehe... heh *runs from anrgy mod* o.o;; Sorry!

 Aaanyway, moving on... I've got the Booster 1 Gallery page up now and.... that's all. I've been working on the Starter 1 card pages, but I've run into a few slight problems with linking so I won't be uploading any of the pages until I've finished all the Digimon pages in that Starter, at least. No definate date on when that will be, but keep checking back if you like.

 And as for the cards, it seems they're available in some places, but not all. Don't know why this is, but it could have to do with either shipping or that they aren't making enough stock to fill demand... Here's the latest press release from Bandai America on the the game:

Bandai America’s Newest Incarnation of Popular Digimon Collectible Card Game Hits Shelves with Improved Mechanics and Card Designs

CYPRESS, CA, August 2, 2004 – Delighting fans and gamers alike who have clamored for its return to the card game aisle, Bandai America Incorporated announces the launch of its new Digimon Collectible Card Game (CCG).

The debut assortment will feature 160 cards that players can collect in two separate 50-card starter sets and 9-card booster packs, the first batch of which is entitled “Eternal Courage.” Additional assortments will be released nationwide every four months to keep the game fresh and players on their toes.

“The Digimon Collectible Card Game is one of the founding fathers of the anime CCG revolution and we’re very excited to re-introduce the property,” said Danny Satyapan, marketing manager for Bandai America’s Cards and Collectible Games division. “We’ve been promoting the game during the summer convention season and have received a fantastic response on the new card designs and game mechanics.”

Bandai will be showcasing the Digimon CCG at Gen-Con Indianapolis, the largest gaming convention in North America, on August 19th – 22nd. Attendees can enter Digimon CCG tournaments for a chance to win framed, uncut sheets of Digimon first edition cards and boxes of Eternal Courage booster packs. Interested players can register onsite at Bandai’s booth (booth # 1921) or sign up in advance by visiting the events section at www.gencon.com (tournament held Saturday and Sunday).

Bandai has also developed an Organized Play program for its games division, committed to working with hobby and gaming stores around the country to promote local tournaments and events. Using these grassroot techniques to grow the community of Digimon players, Bandai hopes to reach new gamers directly where they shop. Retailers who are interested in participating in the program should visit www.digimon.com.

Digimon – short for “Digital Monsters” – has been a huge global success with a hit animated television series, toys and other merchandise. A recent Internet search produced hundreds of thousands of hits for the property, a testament to its sustained popularity. The Digimon animated series currently airs seven days a week on ABC Family and in the Jetix Action Block on ABC Kids.

 Yeah, it's a month old, but I didn't notice it until about 2 weeks ago. Just decided to post it here for those of you who don't visit Bandai's site to often.
