World Ends With You

Each day, players are given various missions to perform for the "Reapers" within a certain time limit, or be erased from existence.

Players use collectible pins to amplify their combat powers against "The Noise", animal-like creatures which can corrupt the people and environment around them.

Each pin is activated in a different manner, from tapping the touchscreen, making sweeping motions with the stylus, or even blowing into the DS microphone.

Neku fights on the lower screen of the DS, while his partner fights on the upper screen.

Their combat styles are different, but can be combined to form more powerful attacks.

Players can purchase clothing to increase the effectiveness of their attacks, and gain PP points to enhance their pin abilities.

PP is usually gained through combat, but can also be gained by coming into wi-fi contact with another person's DS.

There is also a wi-fi mini-game called "Ten Pin Slammer", where players can use one pin at a time to knock the other players' pins off the game board.

World Ends With You has a steady sales history on the tracked marketplaces, meaning it trades hands regularly and isn't considered particularly rare.

Loose means cartridge or disc only, CIB (complete in box) includes the original box and manual, and sealed means factory-sealed and never opened. For World Ends With You, loose is €35.00 and CIB is €35.40 — CIB commands a premium because original boxes and manuals are fragile and often don't survive.

The PAL version of World Ends With You is currently worth €35.00 loose, versus €44.98 for NTSC-U. Regional price differences usually come down to print run size and regional collector demand.
