Featuring a two-tone colour scheme with khaki up top and brown down below, the pad also comes with a “map” motif across the surface.
I can see where they’re going with this, and it almost works, but…first impressions are that’s ugly as hell.
No word yet on a Western release, though given the title in question, it’d be strange for it to be released only in Japan.
