Dress up that gift card with GameStop’s fancy schmancy console-shaped cases

You might be considering a gift card for the gamer on your Holiday shopping list. An easy get is, of course, a GameStop gift card. While a GameStop gift card will certainly be met with a big grin and some hoopla, you can to kick it up a notch with one of GameStop’s console-shaped gift card cases.

Each is a fully formed shell of a game console representing the three biggies (a PlayStation 3, Wii and Xbox 360) plus the PlayStation S2 and Nintendo DS (sorry PSP fans). And each is big enough to insert ye standard gift card. These are all plastic although the GameStop web site lists this as “tins” (don’t you love SEO?).

Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm preorder deal detailed

Namco Bandai has just announced an amazing incentive to preorder Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm for the PS3 at certain stores – downloadable content (dlc). That’s right, you’ll get free stuff, only available by a direct download, if you decide to preorder the game at GameStop/EB Games or GameCrazy. There is a dilemna though – each store will have a different preorder deal.

If you stop by your local GameCrazy and preorder, you’ll receive a download card with your game that will unlock the Hidden Leaf Village’s Second Hokage as a support character and also provide a new single-player mission. If you decide to go to GameStop/EB Games’ website or store and preorder, you’ll get a card that unlocks the First Hokage support character and another single-player mission. Since these are going to be cards that unlock dlc, they’ll most likely be good for one download only, so you’ll have to decide which Hokage you think looks best…
