What I'm waiting for: the Phoenix Wright Godot mug
Proving once again that Capcom does know how to do merchandising right, this pitch perfect coffee mug starring the cuppa-obsessed prosecutor Godot from the DS adventure Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, Trials and Tribulations.
The mug was formerly sold (and continually sold out) at 2008's Tokyo Game Show, but Capcom is giving it wider release via its e-Capcom store on April 16th, where it (with any luck) will make it to the usual import retailers.
If the reference is lost on you, I highly recommend making the acquaintance of all of the games in the series -- they're the best case anyone's made (hyuk) for the interactive novel-type genre that's for the most part stayed locked away in the East, with some of the sharpest writing and localization in recent memory.

I really wish Capcom's US e-store was half as cool as the Japanese one.

Make enough noise and they'll bring it here. The Rockman 9 soundtrack is up on the US store currently.

Ah! I love the Phoenix Wright series.
With this mug out it's almost a shame that i'm a tea drinker...
