Stock Trader Shun takes stock of artwork

It’s a bull market for QJ’s screens/artwork intelligence department as Dengeki Online unloads barrel after barrel of Stock Trader Shun screencaps and artwork. Now if we only had any report that they would also release Shun in the US (or if the Japanese version would have English subtitle options like Gyakuten Saiban 2).

Shun is Capcom‘s equivalent to Konami and Hideo Kojima’s Kabutore. Where Kabutore is Brain Trainer meets the NYSE, Shun is Phoenix Wright meets the NYSE (or is it the Tokyo Stock Exchange for both?). As such, there’s a character-centric drama element going around here, with main character Shun Aiba, mentor Toru Narasaki, and hot hot hottie fellow student Hanako Kirikagura. And rivals you have to outwit, outplay, and outbuy – or crash the market trying.

The stock market has never been this dramatic since Boiler Room (Ben Affleck… shudder…). Or Wall Street. Or since the bubble burst. Poke around at these character artwork and screencaps from Capcom’s DS title. Now if only there’s any word about a US release, or English options, then the stock of this game should rise…
