The player is in charge of an airport, and their goal is to manage baggage quickly and ensure that the airplanes are able to depart on time.

      Weapon Shop de Omasse (レンタル武器屋 de オマッセ Rentaru Bukiya de Omasse?, lit. Omasse's Rental Weapon Shop) is a fantasy rhythm RPG written by Yoshiyuki Hirai, in which the main characters are a father and son pair who craft weapons for heroes. The player uses rhythmic gameplay to forge weapons which are rented by heroes for their quests; the weapon chosen will affect whether or not the hero is successful.[12] The game was released individually on the Japanese Nintendo eShop on November 21, 2012. Originally, this was the only title not to be announced for Western release, with the publisher citing the high degree of translation required and debatable audience size for the game for a localization to be produced.[5][15] In January 2014, a classification of the game was posted by the Australian Classification Board under the title, Weapon Shop de Omasse, suggesting that the game would receive a localization.[16] The game was released on February 20, 2014 after the announcement during Nintendo Direct on February 13, 2014.
