Namco Bandai’s Idolm@ster Channel Is Packed Full Of Songs

The Idolm@ster Channel on Sony’s PlayStation 3 has updated itself with two new pieces of content for the Idolm@ster Shiny TV. This means re-mastered, HD versions of songs from all the various versions and copies of the games that have been around for a while. (So many even we’ve found it hard to keep count and score.)

One is the third “Gravure for You!” pack, above, which has  themed packs such as winter and the beach where you’ll get to pose some of the idols such as Yukiho Hagiwara. The second, and far meatier, is the latest mini-album set 4 called “Chihaya Friends: Earnest”

Note that these albums will have overlap songs from previous mini-albums. What changes is which idol gets some extra stage time. In this case it’s Chihaya Kisaragi’s turn to shine. Awaited Prince, for instance, has been in all the previous mini-albums released as well.

The album comes with 6 songs to play and these are:

Awaited Prince (sung by: 765PRO ALLSTARS)

When Our Eyes Meet (sung by: Chihaya Kisaragi)

shiny smile (sung by: Haruka Amami, Chihaya Kisaragi)

Mornin’!! It’s Breakfast (sung by: Yayoi Takatsuki)

We’ll Always Be Together… Right? (sung by: 765PRO ALLSTARS)

Blue Island (sung by: Chihaya Kisaragi, Makoto Kikuchi, Takane Shijou)

Both the Gravure pack and Mini-album will cost 1500 yen each (About US$15). The game is out now for the Sony PlayStation 3 via its channel.
