... huh... wow. I checked into Play-Asia this morning, out of curiosity -- and it says my order's shipped. And again, I only pre-ordered about a week back. So, those of you who pre-ordered it earlier should (hopefully) have had it shipped by now, too.

Here's what I'm talking about. Under the "Order Value" section in the Order number page, you'll see something like this (except in columns):Product name Moero! Nekketsu Rhythm Damashii Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan 2 (Japan, No Region Protection) Release date...

Question to those who have had their cards charged already: By the Ouendan 2 listing on your order number status, do you have a checkmark by the Qty. number? (The one that indicates that it's "Available/Reserved for your order/Ready for dispatch" ?) Because I don't. Though, I'm not in any...

Hmm. I also have a "Preparing Order" status -- though my card has yet to be charged. Though, I only got around to pre-ordering it about a week ago -- so if they received a lot of pre-orders, I might not actually be on this first shipment.

What I'd like to see is a solution to play GB, SGB, and GBC cartridges on the DS. A slot-2 solution that, perhaps, would be designed to fit such cartridges underneath the DS, instead of sticking out from it. Only thing is, I think I remember reading something about GB-type carts and GBA carts...

Used it, thanks a lot!

If you're looking for 'em, check a local store, possibly, to save on shipping charges. After ordering a set from Play-Asia a few months back (with enough use to have 'em crack and eventually break), I was actually surprised to see a local Micro Center carry 'em (though, with English packaging...

You know, there have been conflicting reports of input lag. I didn't really notice anything of the sort in Metal Slug X. I'll let you know if it seems more evident in other games. And just to share, I'm using that S-Video connection on an SDTV.

I got it last night. So far, I've only played through some of Metal Slug X (which is, reputedly, one of the better-running games on the compilation). Hard Mode seriously whipped me around with 20 continues, so I only got close to the end of Stage 5. But what I've seen so far, compared to what...

Given that there's a bit of a market demand for a DS Lite Rumble Pak over here, I wonder if it'll eventually be picked up by a North American distributor. Maybe, at least, it'll find its way into local import shops. They're really more like small clicks, at least from the DS Rumble Pak...

I know I occasionally enjoy doodling via PictoChat, saving any images via camera screen snaps. Something like this program would be much better. (Though, homebrew drawing programs already exist. Before I buy a slot-1 card and try them out, though, I just need to find a good shop that prides...

On the other hand, you shouldn't keep a color you don't like, just to make a statement of color-gender neutrality. It's a color you'll have to keep if you don't return it within the allowed time frame -- and the cost of a DS Lite isn't trivial. So if you don't like it, don't feel pressured to...

Hrm, if I remember right, this'll be the first VC release where a rumble would normally be supported, right? ... I wonder if they'll be holding to their no-rumble standard for VC games -- or if they'll wise up and use vibration via the Wiimote & GC controller. Otherwise, how're they going to...

Those who play EBA before Ouendan, though, might be in for a bit of a letdown in terms of presentation, as EBA really is much more polished (and has Rumble Pak support). Though, that doesn't make Ouendan any less fun, though. Thankfully, I got Ouendan months before EBA came out. So, I played...

... I'd advise against trying for that. Now, posts from Sages and other older folks there can be worth a read -- but to gain the rank to post there (and gain whatever other privileges such a rank entails), it seems like folks need to consistently read and post to the other Nintendo forums for a...
