Item Shop
In late 2004, Online Bomberman in Taiwan and Hong Kong opened an item shop where players could buy items for the boss battle mode including character cards and nickname cards.
Character cards are characters that require a money payment, and can only be used for a short period of time.
There are two kinds of nickname cards. One type will affect the background of the nickname display area, the other one will simply change the color of the text. Both of the items affect the player's name display.
In order to buy items, user must obtain Bomberyen. Bomberyen can be obtained through normal gameplay, by defeating bosses in Boss Survival Mode, by entering Tournaments, or by purchasing it with cash.
Item Shop also existed in the new version of the Japanese Online Bomberman, containing clothing and accessories to be used by a custom character in the game.

Famous quotes containing the words item and/or shop:
“Those things for which the most money is demanded are never the things which the student most wants. Tuition, for instance, is an important item in the term bill, while for the far more valuable education which he gets by associating with the most cultivated of his contemporaries no charge is made.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Griff: If I let you set up shop in this neighborhood, the people would chop me like a ripe banana.
Kelly: Then why’d you buy my merchandise?
Griff: I ... I was thirsty!”
—Samuel Fuller (b. 1911)
