Found: game that stokes my gaming love like I were a kid again (56K Death) ST V
Or Sakura Taisen V.
In terms of gaming, this was like a dream come true for me.
I've been anticipating this game's release for a long, long time now, much longer than I've anticipated a game before (at least in recent history).
In terms of Sakura Taisen, I'm a relative n00b as I've never bought a true Sakura Taisen game at launch. The only games I can say I did that with are Sakura Taisen V: Eps 0 (an action game like Dynasty Warriors) and the Sakura Taisen 3 PS2 remake. Neither were new additions to the Sakura Taisen "series" so to speak.
So in anticipation of the game's release, I preordered a copy of the limited edition Show Time Box from Red Entertainment using Masato/M-World Services. Here is a link to the version I purchased. This version came with all the stuff from the Show Time Box, along with some Red Entertainment/Sega Direct exclusives.
Here are some pics of the stuff I got:
Here's the box it came in (2 copies, one for me, one for Now Loading):

They even went so far as to make a custom tag for the t-shirt:

Here's the controller. It has the ability to plug head phones into it instead of playing music through the speakers. It is a Hori controller with turbo, but has the Star Group's logo in the center:
