    Japanese Niche Games Deals Thread: Atlus, NISA, Aksys, XSeed and More!

    For most, FFF. For Ar Tonelico fans it could go either way. As an Ar Tonelico (sans Qoga) fan it could go either way for me as well. But if I had to pick one that I would probably like more, I'd say FFF.

    (DEAD) Fire Emblem Radiant Dawn (USED) ~$50 + tax after CAG16 & PUR @ Gamestop.com

    It's so expensive because people pay their prices. It's not GameStop's fault. Blame all the people that buy this stuff. And laugh at the people who expect GameStop to be anything but a business. There're so many games and so much anime out there that I have no need to buy overpriced things...

    Japanese Niche Games Deals Thread: Atlus, NISA, Aksys, XSeed and More!

    Why bother comparing games brought out by one publisher? I appreciate that Atlus is the company bringing it here, but it's Aquaplus that draws me to the game to begin with, and I look forward to kicking some ass with Aruru. Especially if it's only $30. I certainly don't care who publishes a...

    Want 3DS XL, is now a bad time to buy?

    Ahh yes I guess the Pokemon bundle is an obvious one. Anything upcoming aside from Pokemon that would make a likely bundle or I suppose I'll need to wait a while before we can find out? I'll take Pokemon if it gets me a game for free, but given all possibilities, Pokemon doesn't exactly do it...

    Want 3DS XL, is now a bad time to buy?

    Hey all. Making this thread in here as a "shopping discussion" to avoid cluttering up the actual deals section. I would like to pick up a 3DS XL, but I missed out on the $175 price from Target the other day. I saw it before the sale ended, but when I walked to the Target near me, they had no...

    Ni no Kuni $39.99 on Amazon

    $35.98 shipped @ Newegg Edit: More like $37 shipped, because they are lying about shipping cost. It said $0.99 and it said free 2-day shipping but when I checked out I got neither and instead charged $1.99 for shipping. Not cool, Newegg.

    NEOGEO X GOLD Limited Edition $129.99 on Amazon

    I wouldn't buy this thing for $29.99 (and not because I don't like Neo Geo).

    Bioshock, $49.99, Ni No Kuni, $44.99 - NEWEGG

    Ni no Kuni has been $40 at Amazon though not currently. Use browser plugins "The Tracktor" or "The Camelizer." Personally I'm holding out for $30-35 for it. Ghibli is awesome, but the actual gameplay seems a bit boring.

    WD Scorpio Black 500 GB 2.5-inch SATA 7200 RPM $67.84 on Amazon.com

    A 7200RPM laptop drive is only going to draw a watt or so more than a 5400RPM, so this is some pretty awful advice. It's absolutely negligible. This is not new, either. 7200RPM drives have always been fine to use with a PS3. Any PS3 that overheated with a 7200RPM drive would have also overheated...

    Japanese Niche Games Deals Thread: Atlus, NISA, Aksys, XSeed and More!

    Admittedly it's been a while since I've been willing to try any third party controller for any system with the exception of some Logitech stuff for PS2. And I don't bother with cases or protectors. Perhaps things have changed at some point, but I've been burned by third party controllers and...

    Japanese Niche Games Deals Thread: Atlus, NISA, Aksys, XSeed and More!

    Touche.. $30 isn't so bad. But I still disrespect Atlas' catalog for being so full of rereleases. They try to make rereleases a significant part of their revenue, which is BS. --tangent/OT-- I started off using my PSP mostly at home, only because it had games not on other systems (e.g...

    Japanese Niche Games Deals Thread: Atlus, NISA, Aksys, XSeed and More!

    I'm comparing the release dates (too close - I bet you all still have a PS2 like I do) and prices (rerelease is too much compared to original) of the versions of the game. To pay as much or more for the same game with a little bit of new stuff certainly qualifies as a ripoff in my book. I'd...

    Japanese Niche Games Deals Thread: Atlus, NISA, Aksys, XSeed and More!

    Did I say I don't like the game? No. I said they're charging too much for a rerelease that is coming so soon that it's pointless, and that if you guys didn't buy it, they wouldn't pull this $70 rerelease crap in the future. That's all factual. It may be your opinion that you don't care, but...

    Japanese Niche Games Deals Thread: Atlus, NISA, Aksys, XSeed and More!

    Personally, I'm not a fan of Hori products at all to begin with. I regard them the same as I regard MadCatz... total garbage. I might not think that $70 price was so absurd if it were a new game. But this is a spruced up Persona 4, which I already own. It is absolutely ridiculous how often...
