Those heading to E3 this year expecting the showfloor to be awash with PlayStation 3 hardware look set for disappointment, as information emerges pointing to a tightly-restricted hands-on debut for the new machine.

Over the last few weeks, SPOnG has heard from numerous sources within third-party publishers and at various developers, all of whom outlined that their product being readied for E3 would not be shown on Sony's stand. Furthermore, the availability of demo units to third-parties for inclusion in their own booths has not been outlined, leaving publishers and developers unsure as to what they will be able to show, even at this late stage.

"From what we have been hearing, the PlayStation 3 will be shown in a similar way to which the PSP was debuted at E3," one publishing source told SPOnG last week. "Attendees will be able to view the machine in a tightly-restricted environment. People thinking the floor will be awash with playable demo pods will be sore if they walk through the doors expecting to be able to sample a massive range of [PlayStation 3] software at leisure."

Several people we spoke to made the PSP showing analogy, news that will come as disappointment to most. For non-press attendees, a glimpse of the PSP was almost impossible with queues of five hours or so to see the machine blighting the debut.

We put these concerns to Sony Computer Entertainment America, who while assuring us that the PlayStation 3 would be in playable form, did indicate that a massive open floorplan packed with hands-on units was unlikely. "We have always said that the PlayStation 3 will be playable at this year's E3 and that hasn't changed," explained Ryan Bowling at SCEA. "We have a three platform showing this year and of course the PlayStation 2, which is now more popular than ever, will share space with the PSP and the PlayStation 3."

But will the PlayStation 3 be on open play or will it be shown in a similar way to the PSP's first E3 showing? "We are expecting big queues to see the PlayStation 3 and so will be taking great care to manage the crowds in the best way possible. All press will certainly have no problems seeing everything we are showing. This year is going to be huge for us. Not just in terms of what we're showing, but in the major announcements we have planned."

As to how restricted access to the PlayStation 3 will be, we'll find out on May 10th, though SPOnG fully expects demand to go hands on with the system, and its new controller, to greatly outstrip the supply of playable units.

We'll be going hands-on with everything shown this year. Stick with us throughout the show for the important bits of E3, with most of the crap filtered out. ...

Atlus U.S.A., Inc., a leading publisher of interactive entertainment, today announced the acquisition of the North American publishing rights to Battle B-Daman and Battle B-Daman 2. Both games are based on the popular animated program "Battle B-Daman," the second season of which debuts on American television later this year.

"Battle B-Daman and Battle B-Daman 2 are a collective milestone in the history of Atlus, as our first handheld games based on an animated series," said Carl Chen, Project Lead of Battle B-Daman. "Both games are perfect picks for fans of the 'Battle B-Daman' toys, pre-teen gamers, and any GBA owner who enjoys multiplayer excitement."

Battle B-Daman is scheduled for release in the summer of 2006, followed by Battle B-Daman 2 in the fall of 2006. Both games were developed in Japan by Atlus Co., Ltd. Battle B-Daman and Battle B-Daman 2 have not yet been rated by the ESRB.

Yamato will also meet characters both familiar and unknown on his journeys, including the warm-hearted Alan and the sinister-looking Goblin. Only a few have what it takes to become a B-Daplayer; will Yamato become the B-Dachampion?

Speaking at the Xbox 360 press conference in Tokyo, Takahashi Sensui, Microsoft Japan's Xbox division manager, has declared that 2006 will be "the stepping stone" to Microsoft's inevitable success in the region.

According to US website Gamespot, which translated the conference, Sensui's opening speech began with an affirmation of his confidence in the capabilities of the Xbox 360 and the company's ability to perform well in the territory.

"Since the launch of the original Xbox in 2002, there was one thing that we have consistently said: Microsoft will inevitably succeed in Japan," Sensui stated, adding: "The Xbox 360 is not just the only next-generation console available in the market, but it will also continue to be the best console for years to come."

Japanese sales of the new console have been sluggish to say the least, and it was the only territory that didn't sell out at launch in December, despite having a much lower initial supply than both America and Europe. As with the original Xbox, Microsoft is having to work exceptionally hard to convince Japanese consumers to purchase their machine, rather than holding out for Sony's PS3.

Conscious of the need for quality games to help drive sales, Sensui showed the packaging for Testsuya Mizuguchi's long awaited Ninety-Nine Nights, assuring the press that it will be released on April 20th following numerous quality control delays. He also stated that there have been 25 games released for the platform since its December debut, and this number is expected to grow to around 40 games by summer - doubling to around 80 by the end of the year.

Stressing the importance of the Xbox Live service in growing the community in Japan, Sensui commented that 95 per cent of consumers had accessed the Xbox Live Marketplace, with 520,000 downloads recorded to date. The company has reached new agreements with Namco Bandai Games, Konami, SNK Playmore, Hudson, Yukes and D3 Publisher to bring a slew of new content to the Xbox Live Arcade service, and there is also a range of additional Marketplace content planned - such as an eight minute trailer for Tatsunoko production's 40th anniversary commemorative anime film, Karas.

"Xbox Live, which we have been operating since three years ago, has developed into a service that expands the user community for the Xbox 360," Sensui stated. "We plan to continuously make new additions to its capabilities. The Xbox 360 and Xbox Live will keep on evolving, and together, they will continue to be the best gaming platform."

Reminding the conference attendees of comments made by the company's worldwide Xbox division manger, Peter Moore, Sensui stated: "Microsoft believes that it isn't a true success unless we succeed in the Japanese gaming market. We will be fully committed to the Japanese market. As everyone may know, the Xbox 360 has taken the European and American markets by storm. As the chief of Japan's Xbox division, it will be my duty to realize the same kind of success, here in Japan. ...
