Goods: Type:YOU Customised PC with seiyuu voiced themes (Hatano Wataru, Smash Core)

And we thought personalised voice alarm clocks were bad enough for our wallets…

Latest gadget seiyuu fans can blow their savings on is Smash Core’s [Type:YOU] Seiyuu Original PC series with seiyuu voiced themes! Now you can hear your favourite seiyuu address you by name when you start-up and shut-down your windows PC.

This is the second round of orders with male seiyuu Hatano Wataru 羽多野渉 and female seiyuu Harada Kana 阿澄佳奈. The first round with Miyata Kouji and Kato Emiri has ended. I wasn’t aware of it then. Sorry for not posting earlier if you were their fans *o*

Notes:
1. You can specify your name and script (within 20 hiragana characters. Punctuation marks are excluded.)
E.g. 「あきなさん、きょうもおしごとがんばって。」 (ささやくように) (18 characters)
Akina-san, Kyoumo oshigoto ganbatte. (Whisper)
E.g. 「たかしくん、おつかれさま!」 (元気に) (11 characters), etc
Takashi-kun, otsukare-sama! (lively)

2. Besides that, you can also specify the tone and atmosphere of the voices, like gentle (やさしく), chirpy (元気に) etc. Non-specified tones will not be performed.
3. Start-up voice will be about 4 seconds. (pay so much for 4 seconds orz;;) I wonder how much companies have to pay to engage the seiyuu to do an hour’s work :P

The customised notebook will also be designed by the seiyuu who will choose his favourite colour for the cover and his autograph. (Delivery period: 60-70 days)

    1. @Shirokaze: My mental note of the price includes proxy fees + import tax lol~ so it is REALLY expensive. But if I was in Japan, I may be more willing to buy it if I had the money and need for a new laptop. My current one is about 2 years old :D

    1. @urusaiii: I believe they probably do :P I don’t see the branding of the PC. Probably a local manufacturer which produces customised PCs. Guarantee/warranty page: pc-koubou.jp/shop_guide/guarantee.php

  1. That’s actually really cool. Its quite expensive but when I look at the specs, the high grade comes with 120gb ssd and its quadcore and 1080pi and other good stuff! Though I think the most expensive thing about it is the seiyuu voice and its customized. I might have gotten it if it was my favorite seiyuu and I had money Haha. Cause I have a laptop already~

    1. @momo: If I were in Japan, I would consider it. But to import it will incur customs tax + proxy fees *_* And personally I don’t like the big screen. I prefer something smaller like 13.3″. Let’s wait for him to voice the customised capolla alarm clocks and we can make our own windows startup/shutdown sounds ^^;;

    2. I don’t mind the big screen size because I don’t have very good eyes so small screens hurt my vision. But yeah, the price is REALLY expensive + tax + proxy fees + shipping (laptops can be heavy) -.- Just a lot for some voices you know?

      Plus, imo, I can get a really good laptop for cheaper anyways X] Just gonna wait for some more voice alarm clocks!

    3. @momo: I used to have a 15.4″ and it was quite a chore to carry it around due to the weight :D And if I needed a bigger screen, I can always connect the laptop to a monitor :P Yeah, I’ll be patient too and wait for his voice alarm clock :D

    4. It is a chore to carry around. My laptop is a 14.5″ screen I think? It’s pretty thin and not heavy so I like it. I would really only use a big screened laptop at home or if I was going over to a friend’s house. Wouldn’t bring that thing around traveling and stuff.

      I use my computer more anyways (barely use the laptop) :D

      yes! Gotta wait for that voice alarm clock :]
