No one’s announced a U.S. release for this PS Vita port yet as far as I know, but you can still grab the Wii edition for like twenty simoleons.

Muramasa: The Demon Blade Vita gameplay footage. It looks pretty much exactly like the Wii game, as far as I can tell! I am okay with this!

Muramasa: The Demon Blade for PS Vita. If you’re wondering how it compares to the Wii original, here:

It looked great as a Wii game, and now it looks great as a Vita game. The new version will be supported by new DLC, featuring four stories of four new characters.

Someone actually got that NSFW/bootytastic fanart of Momohime (from Muramasa: The Demon Blade) and her Yakuza-style tattoos inked on their arm. This is crazy.

Amazon (well, technically, Hubbagames via Amazon, but I think it’s okay) is selling one of last year’s best games, Muramasa: The Demon Blade, for just $15.41.

In case you somehow declined to pick this up after I spent a whole year obsessing over it, now your hesitation has paid dividends in the form of savings. This is way, way cheap for such a beautiful and exciting game. If Hubbagames runs out, you can also get it from Play-Asia for $24.90. Still cheap!

Alter’s Momohime figure, photographed by Colette Bennett of Tomopop. This is just one of a series of really nice photos of the far-too-expensive figure of Muramasa’s heroine. I appreciate both the photography and the chance to look at one of these in detail without dropping insane money.

“Oboro Muramasa” by  219 (click for a larger image). I’ve gone old-school on this Sunday afternoon, returning to my longtime Muramasa fanart obsession. This artwork is almost worth turning your monitor sideways, so you could use it as a desktop.
The reason I’ve thought to post more Muramasa fanart is that I’ve recently started the game up again, for the first time since I bought a new TV a few months ago (sorry if that comes off as bragging, I don’t want to be that guy!) It’s absolutely the most impressive-looking thing I’ve seen on my TV, despite not being in HD or anything.

“New Year’s card” by Mirai Denki. I just felt like posting some Muramasa fanart, and this image of Momohime is like part The World Ends With You, and part Street Fighter IV, or something.

Want to buy Alter’s crazy expensive Momohime figurine? Yeah, I kinda do too. If you’re brave and wasteful enough to consider doing such a thing, you have a few options.
NCSX opened preorders today at a price of $86.90, with UPS shipping around $11 (to my house, anyway). Amiami’s $69 sale price is a lot more attractive, but with shipping probably around the $25 mark, it’s pretty much a wash.
Play-Asia might be the best bet: it’s got the highest price at $89.90, but its shipping is usually dirt cheap if you don’t mind waiting foreverrrrrrrrr.
Buy: Muramasa: The Demon Blade ($34.98!)

Muramasa’s Kongiku, painted by Vanillaware artist (and Habanero-tan creator) Shigatake. Not only is it notable to have one Vanillaware artist contribute his take on the work of Vanillaware head George Kamitani, this piece is notable for another reason: it was created using DSiWare’s Art Academy!
In fact, it was actually made using two DS games. First, Shigatake drew Kongiku in WarioWare DIY. He then took a picture of a screen displaying that image with the DSi camera, and, using that as a template, drew over it in Art Academy’s “free paint” mode. If you’d like to see the all-DS drawing process for yourself, there’s a video at Nico Nico.
