[quote name='CheapyD']Scene It is $40 and region free. I'd get it if I had some friends to play with.[/quote]

Good price, I'm tempted.

Cheapy can you use your Play-Asia contacts to confirm that AC6 is going to work on US 360's. There's still some doubt in my mind as the page does seem to give conflicting information.
 
[quote name='dafunkk12']Cheapest shipping was $13.50 for a bubble mailer, and $3 more for a box. I elected for the cheap option, of course, but I'm quite curious to see how this will arrive.[/quote]I've never had good luck with their bubble mailers. I've used them a few times and all the GBA titles would end up flattened. But that's certainly not Play-Asia's fault.

Anyway, does anyone know how import-friendly Slide Adventure: Mag Kid is? I can't find any sort of translation guide but this is a great price to try it out for.

What about the page is conflicting? It says it works on US and Japan consoles. It looks like you can only get Japanese language on a Japanese console, though.
It will not work on Euro/PAL consoles.

The wording around the language part seemed a little ambiguous -- as if you could only get English on a Japanese console, although that makes no sense. I pulled the trigger and ordered away; with some affiliate funds I'd been sitting on for months, it cost me under $5 to buy. :D The demo for AC6 had me completely floored by how beautiful it was, I can't wait to try the full version.

Yeah I hear what you're saying, I was just worried because this is what it said on the email I got when my order shipped

Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation
[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Compatible with Xbox360 Asia, NTSC J[/FONT]

I'm sure I'm worrying about nothing.
 
Well, according to their product page, it works with a US 360.
If it doesn't, you've definitely got a legitimate gripe!

Although just FYI for everyone, Play-Asia does have this disclaimer on their compatibility page:

Please note that this list has been put together based on either our own test results or information supplied by the publisher and may be incomplete. Play-Asia takes no responsibility for the accuracy of this information and in general always recommends only to purchase game software that has been designed for the system you own.

So caveat emptor, folks. I give the guys at P-A a lot of goodwill, though, so I'll take it on a faith gesture and blame myself if it ends up not working.
 
[quote name='CheapyD']Scene It is $40 and region free. I'd get it if I had some friends to play with.[/QUOTE]

$17+ shipping by itself, ouch. I'm sure it would've been a better deal if I'd bought it with all my other crap, diffusing the shipping costs across many bulky items. If it's still around when I get my current order & the coupon they always include, I'll grab it with some other filler. Like that Bowser plushie.

EDIT: Nevermind. I tried filling my cart with all my previous items and minimum shipping method changed to UPS for $34.40.
 
If you guys get AC6 that functions the same as the US version for this price, I'll be jealous. $50 AC was the best price I could find through the holidays until this deal. The game is gorgeous (even on SD) but so far the SP gameplay is very similar to AC4. The main reason I bought it now was for online, though, so I'll see how that is once I get a little more experience in SP.
 
The Mii Editor cart apparently comes with a bluetooth dongle for your comp. and allows functionality with the wiimote. I wonder if you could run a power point presentation with the wiimote? That will definitley up the nerd factor of my next presenation.
 
[quote name='Squee']Are the GBA games here legit? I was thinking about picking up Rockman Zero 2 and Metroid Zero Mission since they're both pretty cheap.[/QUOTE]
They are legit, but they are the Japanese versions, so you may be missing out on the text unless you know the language. All GBA games are region free, so they will play on your system.
 
Looks like they had to order up more since the shipping speed went from 24hr to 1-5d.

Mine shipped this morning, here's hoping the NTSC/U compatibility isn't a prank.
 
Damn, should of just bit on the AC6. Oh well.

Still tempted by the Eyeshield even though I wouldn't be able to play it. Any word on a Freeloader for the Wii?
 
[quote name='graf1k']Damn that sucks, what the shit is with doubling the price of Ace Combat 6 in the middle of a sale?[/quote]

Yea, I had AC6 and F.E.A.R. files in the cart and went to checkout and the price for AC6 shows up 49.90 so I guess I'm out on this one unless the $24 price comes back.
 
Does anyone know how long F.E.A.R. Files is? I'm just trying to find a justifiable reason to jump on the deal. I still haven't finished the first one.
 
I've been looking to pick up Final Fantasy XII International for awhile, so it looks like this is my chance. Can't beat $5 shipping either.

It's 2 games in one. Decent amount of playing time, not terribly long, but definitely not short either. Even though it got mediocre reviews, I thought it was pretty fun and worth buying.
 
[quote name='joshingit']Twinbee portable for $23 shipped looks good.[/QUOTE]

Yah, I picked that up w/Salamander Portable. Get a $1 off when you buy together. $44.40 shipped.
 
I picked up the following:

Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan 2 (DS)
Salamander Portable (PSP)
Twinbee Portable (PSP)

IMHO, a pretty bad ass sale and it seems I'm one of the few that is going after games I can't exactly get here, lol! :p

Yeah, it really depends on what system you're buying for...to me, it seems like the PSP selection is very nice. The Salamander and Twinbee games are tempting, but the Japanese version of Goku Makai-mura Kai is something that I've had my eye on for-stinking-ever. Ordered that *as soon as* I found out about the sale. This is the first time that game has received any kind of discount, and it's the perfect price to get me to jump.

I still am partially thinking about the Salamander and Twinbee games, but since they're the Asian version as opposed to the Japanese version, I'm not quite as interested. I know, I know...it's a pretty stupid distinction, but it's just my preference. But any port in a storm sometimes, I suppose...
 
I just got a psp and I was wondering what the Salamander and Twinbee Portable games are like. If I only get one is there one that would be a better buy? Are there any other good deals in the psp section that I might be over looking? I know a little about import ds and advance games but nothing about psp games. Thanks in advance.

Salamander's better imo, never liked the Twinbee series, that shoot the bell powerup system just never clicked with me, there's also the Parodius Collection

Parodius is the better of the 3 for me. Salamander and Twin Bee are not as unique. You also get Chatting Parodius and Sexy Parodius which are real gems in terms of Japanese quirkiness.

I finally picked up Initial D Street Stage for PSP. It is the Asian so it has an English Manual. Unique game and a great port of the Japan arcade game and will NEVER be released in the US
 
Yeah, this sale kicks butt IMO. Most of the PS2 stuff I wanted got sold out quickly, but I did order Gekisha Boy 2 (Polaroid Pete 2) pre-owned before it sold out. Hopefully, we'll see Gekisha Boy 3 on PS3 with cartoon Britney Spears shaving her own head while the main character tries to take her photo. If you're familiar with this series, you will know what I'm talking about...

Oh, and the playasia site is down right now...:(
 
[quote name='Twilight Wolf']is that warhawk for ps3 new? why is it so cheap. is there something wrong with this site?[/QUOTE]

Gee, if so many of us place orders there, it's pretty obviously a legit site.
?No intiendes "sale"?

Whoever bought the Japanese version of Ultimate Ghouls N' Ghosts, is there any particular reason to get that over the American one??

I snagged a Hori PS3 controller for $17 shipped, quite nice. They're sold out now though.

you obviously missed my intention. the listing does not specifically state new. and with the internet, one can never assume.

second, i notice this is playasia. depending on where they ship from internationally it may take me up to a few weeks to receive my items
 
[quote name='Twilight Wolf']and this is what i was talking about

warhawk for 19.99?[/quote]

Different regions have different markets. Warhawk is mainly targeted towards the European and American markets, thus, the price will remain high because the sales have a tendency to be high. But in the Asian markets, where shooters like that do poorly, prices have a tedency to drop faster or end up on clear.

Common business sense.
 
For all of those who were questioning whether this version of AC6 would work in a US xbox 360, I just got my copy in the mail today and it does indeed work.


Full english support as well so rest easy
 
Yeah I got my copy of AC6 as well yesterday, after all my worrying it works like a charm.

Sorry for doubting you Play-Asia. Great deal at $25.

:D Awesome -- I'm still waiting for my copy, should arrive in my office today. After using some leftover credit, I got this for $5 shipped ... can't beat that. :)
 
Got 2 of my orders in the mail today. These were placed on the 13th, so I would say that was pretty fast:

Oretachi Geasen Zoku Sono 10: Terra Cresta (Japan, PS2 NTSC J)
Hard Luck: Return of the Heroes (Japan, PS2 NTSC J)
Gekibo 2 [pre-owned] (Japan, PS2 NTSC J)
Kaido Battle 2: Chain Reaction (Japan, PS2 NTSC J)

net@versus: Reversi [pre-owned] (Japan, Dreamcast NTSC J)
Giant Gram: All Japan Pro Wrestling 2 [pre-owned] (Japan, Dreamcast NTSC J)

I have to say Playasia rocks!!!

Despite it saying that it won't on the case, I double checked their site before opening it and they said it did... sure enough, plays great!
 
Did anyone order Virtua Fighter 5 (Japanese version) last week? I don't own a PS3 yet, but I think that's a good price.

Also, when is the sale over?

Thanks, Master Shake. I wish I had my tax return!

Anybody think that $19 is a good deal for VF? I think I can find a U.S. version cheaper in a few months, but I dunno...
 
That is a great price. A lot of us passed on it because the Xbox 360 version is superior, but if you only have a PS3 or whatever, you can't go wrong. Yeah, it may slip below $20 in the US at some point, but how long do you feel like waiting?
 
[quote name='eastx']Whoever bought the Japanese version of Ultimate Ghouls N' Ghosts, is there any particular reason to get that over the American one??[/quote]

Sorry for the delay in responding...I wasn't watching the thread that closely.

The version of the game I bought is not the original one. Japan got the original, *and* they got a reworked version that offers more difficulty, different enemy placement, more arcadey feel, fewer continues, etc. This is the one that I bought, and it's important to distinguish this version from the original. The original's Japanese name is Goku Makai-mura, and the reworked version's Japanese name is Goku Makai-mura Kai. The "Kai" is the important, distinguishing part.

Kai was never released in the US, and *will never* be released here. It's a budget re-release which isn't uncommon in Japan. It's got extra content in the Kai verison of the game, but *also* contains the entire original game, Goku Makai-mura. You can freely choose whichever one you wish to play.

I bought Ultimate Ghosts n' Goblins when it came out here in the US. It was the sole reason I bought my PSP, and I never regretted it. I L-O-V-E this game. Thus, I want to experience all of the Capcom love that I can, as this game is nothing short of a gift to old school gamers like me. I grew up playing, and loving, stuff like this, so naturally, I want to experience as much of it as I possibly can.

Bonus: this version of the game comes with a full-color instruction book, and a pretty darned cool cover, even going so far as to show a screen shot of *white* Arremers (devils) on the back cover. The game requires the PSP to be at or above firmware 3.40.

Unfortunately, the sale stock that P/A had is gone, and the price has returned to its pre-sale amount of $32.90, along with a week waiting period. To me, that means that it's out of stock, but they can get more if needed. I'd recommend it highly if you love this stuff. I held out for the Japanese verison over the Asian version, but that's just because I wanted that version due to my own silliness. If you don't have a region preference, Asian region games are *always* cheaper than Japanese region games, and probably offer the exact same thing.

Wow. Didn't know I had that much to say about it. Yike.
