Welcome to the Japanese niche games deals and discussion thread!  Feel free to talk about local and import Japanese games here.  Our goal is to maintain a thread dedicated to active deals on niche games including RPGs, Visual Novels (VN), Shoot'em ups (Shmups), Musou, etc.  Also maintained are pre-orders for standard, limited and collector's edition games with key release dates provided.

I've wikified the thread to make it more friendly and open to others that can actively update with important information. You can find the wiki post directly below this one.

NOTE:  Please, leave the censorship discussion away from this thread.  It's common for japanese games to have questionable content outside of the country.  We want to keep discussions to the game itself and not about cultural/societal tolerance.

A message from Thorbahn:

Our CAG Japanese Niche Games Thread also has a community on PS4, where you can interact and game with other members of the thread.

I placed an order for 5 games at gamestop and I got a shipping notification a half hour later that all 5 shipped together. Now the worry of what they will actually ship me. I picked up:
The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel III / The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel IV PS5
The Legend of Legacy HD Remastered PS5
Class of Heroes 1 and 2: Complete Edition PS5
UNDER NIGHT IN-BIRTH II [Sys:Celes] PS5
Star Wars Outlaws Gold Edition PS5

Damn, I didn't see Outlaws Gold...

A lot of these prices are crazy good, but some seem... not great. SMRPG for $30 and FF16 for $30 are both great prices IMO, but also seem kind of high... SMRPG has been on sale for less, I think I got it from GS for $25 like a year ago and FF16 is like 2 years old almost?

yeah, a few of these games have been cheaper, like persona 5 tactica has been $10 several times.
 
I appreciate everyone's feedback on how they approached P5R. It's given me a lot of food for thought. I also read more on NG+ for P5R and it sounds like if you finished the main game in about 80 hours without a guide that it sets you up for NG+ to only be about 30 to 40 hours to finish everything. I feel like that's the approach I'll take as I realize now that I screwed up playing Xenoblade Chronicles Defnitive. I didn't go full on guide mode, but I did use a no spoilers guide to make sure wasn't missing side quests and things. I also looked up where to find certain things for specific quest. That bogged the experience down and eventually is part of what made me stop playing even though I was VERY deep into it. The FOMO in these games is real and for myself, I have to be careful not to fall into that trap because I can get burned out.

I already kind of was doing this with buying games, realizing I can't play every game and I shouldn't even try to. That I should limit my purchases and try to just enjoy what I like the most in gaming which will hopefully leave me more open to random new games that pop up. I just need to apply the real world to how I role play in these games.

Unrelated to all of this...

Phantom Breaker: Omnia
is on sale on eshop for $3.99. I had only ever considered the beatemup Battle Grounds game (I might have an old version of that on Vita) but this really hit me with how very Anime it is. I figure for $4 + tax, it might make a good game for my kids (youngest is 20yo) and I to play when we get together since it's not smash or street fighter or something where we might have an experience advantage. I gave it a few matches last night... the voice work is pretty great as are the graphics. The fighting itself seems fine. If nothing else, I'll get my money worth out of it when we are all together (possibly this weekend).

I've also been watching a lot more Anime. I finished Wasteful Days of Highschool Girls, and then watched 3D Kanojo Real Girl, Tamako Market (though I still need to watch the movie), Sorairo Utility, and am currently about 8 episodes in on Nana. I think all of them have been solid for different reasons and satisfying.
 
I use wiki's more than guides for these bigger RPGs. If something isn't intuitive after reviewing tutorials and tinkering, I'll just search that specific thing to better understand it.

Crafting gems in XCDE, if you're wanting to maximize your output, has a counter intuitive method to first isolate the stats you want and then shoot it to the moon. But doing that makes you bonkers strong...

Which is actually needed if you want to tackle the secret bosses. You could brute force the RNG to get the best gems, but just looking up the best method was way more satisfying, IMO. Plus the noises crafting makes are awful. I saved up a big pile, muted the game, and listened to a podcast while crafting.

Similar, I'm playing Pathfinder Kingmaker, and you've gotta be a special kind of reckless to play a Pathfinder CRPG without any outside sources. Pathfinder is already one of the most complex TTRPGs out there and games has many obtuse systems that can get you Game Over long before it actually happens. Getting general mechanics guides and tips has helped me greatly; still playing blind, but getting to play versus just learning the "hard way."

I couldn't figure out the Kinetiscist class for the life of me, but some redditors guide was like "they're magical rangers that can overcharge their shots versus firing magical arrows."

Oh. Why didn't you say that? Someone's the lore gets in the way or assumes familiarity.

I think game designers aren't educators, therefore they create tutorials based upon their experiences and preferred learning modes, without considering for how users approach at their own pace and preferred style. If you look at it that way, seeking an outside reference that better aligns with your mode of thinking enriches the experience, not spoils it.

Games with those tutorials that show button prompts, a little video/gif of the thing being taught, and a text description with optional in game tutorial (training wheels moments) offer several modes at once. Those are my favorites as it's all optional, can be referenced at any time, and gives me the visual understanding of "this is what it looks like when I did it right."
 
Playing P3 when it came out (without a guide) was such a breath of fresh air. There was nothing really like it out there, especially in terms of aesthetic and overall quality, and the games have just gotten more fully realized since IMO.

In other news, I definitely took advantage of the GS sale for Rhapsody and the PS5 Cold Steel 3/4 pack. I had literally been watching for price drops for MONTHS and was expecting maybe $30 or $40 sale-wise respectively—so talk about my pleasant surprise when I saw this sale go up!!!
 
I'm just not one to game with a guide. I do know spoiler free guides are to miss nothing, but I don't know. I did do P3 without a guide, and most without a guide, unless I'm really stumped. I am probably going to slow roll TITS 1 hoping to beat it before the remake comes out later this year. I know many things are missable without a guide but likely YOLO.

I got in the Gamestop sale 2 otome I was missing that are harder to find now (My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom! and Cupid Parasite Fandisc) as well as Sailor Moon Sailor Stars Blurary (only one I'm missing from my set...hope it's nice), and The Doinksoft Collection (Demon Throttle still physical exclusive Switch I believe). Hopefully we all get decent copies. So many things are sold out.

There are some changes (and a LOT less content), but PFKM cleaves closely enough to the actual Pathfinder 1E ruleset that I generally recommend checking out the online SRD to new players if you wanna learn the rules, because the game does a pretty poor job pointing you in the right direction for everything.

As for general recommendations, PF1E, like all systems based on D&D3E, is a game of action economy. A lot of guides for KM out there recommend maximizing damage output, but the real meta is to maximize your own actions while denying the enemy as many actions as you can. A very simple example is the grease spell. With a high enough DC, cast in a strategically chosen location, you can spend a single standard action and potentially disable a large group of enemies for multiple rounds while simultaneously lowering their AC.

Ah, enjoy your Star Gentle Uterus.

I've played TT Pathfinder 1E (and loads of 3.5). There is overlap, but some things are definitely more powerful in TT versus the video game and vice versa.

A lot of it is understanding spell interactions, and yes, maximizing action economy.

I've played a full Lv20/My10 WotR game tabletop, so I'm well aware of how bonkers it can get. Wrath CRPG is likely next for me.

Playing a summoner in the video games is way easier than tabletop, as one example. Outflank is still a premium melee character feat if you have three or more.
 
I'm playing through GoW Ragnarok right now for the first time. They way they make these games is they have some mini metroidvania game design. Sure, backtracking is sometimes not very fun. But almost nothing is lost permanently; you just come back and get it at a later time. If it's like the first title, you can just 100% everything at a later point in time. In fact the game even signposts most things that are not currently accessible. That is better game design. You don't miss out on anything permanently, you just come back and get it later. You organically 100% the game, if you so choose.

JRPGs are different. Some have intentional decision making or choices matter. But what we're talking about that is more commonplace are hidden and opaque things you will simply permanently miss on a 100-hr playthrough unless you are strictly following a guide. It's part of what we love about the genre, discovering hidden secrets, and also could be argued that it is bad game design. i.e. Is it really "discovery" or revelatory when you don't discover it on your own?
 
The dumbest change they ever made was moving dungeon crawling blocks from night to afternoon in 4 vanilla and up. They didn't replace it with any meaningful content. They also couldn't just move all the s links to there either.

Oh and I don't get why they didn't keep 4s lunch with s links stuff. That was such a shame.
 
I'll swing by a GameStop or two today to sniff out some clearance titles, well report back.

As for anime, I'm also done with To Your Eternity, which is getting a third season.

The main character can be a drag, but the exploration of death, humanity, and ideals is well done, IMO.

Highly recommended to check out.


The main antagonist force being called "The Knockers" is a but of a distraction; haven't feel this since Dragon Age Origins called their antagonist "The Taint."

I found To Your Eternity was too depressing to watch and gave up around episode 6. Not quite Grave of the Fireflies levels, but pretty close. I didn’t know what it was about, just something I clicked on a few years back. So that’s a light warning from me to anyone considering it.

Episode
5
destroyed me so I get it
 
I looked into To Your Eternity when it was mentioned and immediately noped out of it. 🤣

It's still cool to hear about what others are watching. Same for which games everyone is into.
 
Recently I started Bugs Bunny & Taz: Time Busters on PS1. Really not bad at all for a turn-of-the-millennium, me-too, licensed 3D platformer from frigging Infogrames of all companies, though I’m still only in the first world.

Been watching some videos in the “Who Were The [X]” series on The Histories channel on YouTube. Pretty low production quality but overall solid information on various, usually famous groups of people throughout history. Not my favorite history youtuber, though. Also been rewatching Big Action Bill’s “The History Of [X Godzilla Movie]” playlist, which is a nice, in depth look at each Godzilla movie and what was going on behind the scenes.

Oh, wait, we were talking specifically about anime and modern japanese games? WELL NEVER MIND THEN.
 
I'm usually not for "bummer" stuff, but To Your Eternity is definitely more poetic. However, it's definitely not for everyone, for example...

When Fushi's allies know they can be revived by his powers, making them effectively immortal, they start blowing their heads off (literally) in front of him so he can resummon them somewhere else more quickly than them running somewhere.

And this happens a lot. And while it's not shown on screen, you see the lead up, cutaway, gunshot and squelching blood splatter.

They even do it in front of other normal humans who freak out accordingly. All while Fushi displaying more PTSD than a Vietnam veteran.

But I'm telling you, it's really good. A lot of the characters are real, in having imperfections and flaws, that actually exhibit change and growth instead of being cardboard cutouts.

Animation in season two takes a hit, but otherwise, pending something odd at the end of the season, I'll be looking forward to seasons three.

It's not horror anime gory, it's conceptually horrifying.

I've seen a lot of dark anime and that part was pretty bold about it. I've not seen Chaos Dragon, but I think Re:Zero might come close. Attack on Titan is a weird one for me as the post time skip isn't my cup up tea. Also, war crimes be war crimes...

Madoka Magica is probably an apt comparison. Or Promised Neverland.

It's a shame the series isn't more talked about. It's definitely more philosophizing at you than telling a story in some parts.
 
Chaos dragon the main character has a super mode he goes into if a person close to him dies occasionally on purpose. Though the majority of the time it is activated by coincidence of someone dying.

The show also has the cast in a still image and crosses them out as they are killed off. as well as color coded based on their country of origin and allegiances which is useful. The show ends on a cliffhanger Though and the one antagonist is never properly dealt with.

The talking sword is also weird. At least one point he wanted to suicide himself and his user. My guess is that he's a demon of some sort imprisoned/sealed there. kinda like the one character has a dragon inside their artifact. I think there were 2 dragon artifacts kinda yin yang shaped.
 
One of the biggest mistakes I made a couple years ago has finally been rectified. I got one of my grails. I was able to get the art and extras book set in English, and at a very good price LN. I'm ecstatic right now. Tsukihime is going to be much easier to target, and then I will be complete.

I'm focusing on OOP and soon-to-be bookmark stuff from recent years. hardcover books and the few chipboard box and collector sets that I want. Right now I want some of the SAO boxes and JP/ UK Re:zero BD collectors.

Also, it's amazing how the price on valuable aftermarket collectibles comes down hard during the times when no one is spending. (on frivolous and luxury goods). It is really hard to sell or move most stuff right now.
 
I passed on a NA copy which I regret a lil, but I have a Japanese physical copy. I did get the other game that came out NA copy though. I still hate they never released Fate like this!

I've been selling off some stuff recently and it seems to be moving a little slower than normal. Generally I just list stuff $5 or so less than the lowest eBay price and it's gone in a week. Any JRPG or JRPG-adjacent stuff still moves pretty quickly. Genuinely obscure stuff (things that nobody wants and I question why I bought) is stagnant - mostly older limited print releases. Higher-end stuff like some of the Sanderson leatherbounds ($300-$400) sold within a few days.

I think the biggest slowdowns are with CEs; people just don't want overpriced paper and plastic products and that's what most are these days. Witch and the Holy Night is a little different because AFAIK it was only available as the pseudo-CE, there was no "standard edition".

I've been seeing the same thing- I've got like 30 things listed and honesty probably just need to drop the price on everything with out much people are likely spending elsewhere.
 
I received my gamestop order today. Legend of Legacy, Under Night In-Birth II, and Star Wars Outlaws Gold were all sealed. Cold Steel III / Cold Steel IV and Class of Heroes 1 and 2 are opened but it looks like they were just opened recently because the cases are in almost perfect condition. They were all shipped in an oversized box. This was actually a perfect gamestop online order!

Yeah seriously, I ordered like 10 games and 8 of them were guts. I knew the risk of getting a gut was high but it's kinda crazy it's that high AND none of the cases actually look "new".
 
Targeting Aniplex of America used-LN collector sets has been one of my primary focuses during the previous few years. Simply love Ufotable animation projects on blu-ray. The older Fates, Garden of Sinners, Demon Slayer, and Heaven's Feel are among the best looking discs I've ever viewed. I'm rewatching the first cour of Demon Slayer AoA discs right now and by god it's phenomenal. (plus the insanely cheaper Funi releases are the exact same discs)
Just a couple used ones each year, an occasional purchase to fill in the gaps. I've made trades for some LE blu-ray sets too! like taking Amazon exclusive black box DVD collections 1-3 of One Piece which I bought on clearance, will never care about nor open, and traded them for the complete Sword Art Online chipboard box sets 1-8 AoA. These items are really expensive and I never want them at full price.
I passed on a NA copy which I regret a lil, but I have a Japanese physical copy. I did get the other game that came out NA copy though. I still hate they never released Fate like this!
Yeah I know. Some older Fate stuff is among my current targets as well. I still feel like they'd make a Fate stay/night VN boxed set. But then again it's Aniplex so apparently not! They really don't care about their fans. But I've been holding off hard on buying digital versions of these games on sale because those boxes and discs are what I truly want.
 
I have a playasia order taking forever to get here. My last 3 orders only took 5, 7, and 3 days for the tracking to update in the US, this one is 17 days and still hasn't shown up in the US, tracking is stuck at "Departed Shipping Partner Facility". Wonder if their free shipping is ever coming back, they have to be losing a lot of business removing that.
 
My Fuga order will ship next week, will chime in how that works out.

No more free shipping is certainly a bummer. I would likely shift any imports from them to VGP.
 
I have a playasia order taking forever to get here.

My last order back in December took 31 days to get to me. It was just two standard switch games. Nothing oversized or fancy and it was using the cheap (free at the time) shipping option. For there was no update to tracking until around day 26 when it showed up in Vegas (I live in AL) and then continued East with a third party shipper until eventually getting transferred to a usps hub for my region.

I take it based on your previous orders you must have been paying for EMS / Air?

Something I did read, when the tariff crap was put on a reduced amount it triggered a tsunami of orders from China as people are racing to get crap imported before this current thing dies off. That might be part of the issue. The system is just that backlogged.
 
I am going to start using VGP as well. I actually used Play-Asia enough before to get some higher status (not sure what it really is). I would generally wait till enough games are coming/out and make a free shipping order. Now without the free shipping, I am incentivized to just not use them unless that's the only choice (they still do get some Play-Asia Asian-English only games, but they do appear on other sites now). I really do want Saga Frontier 2 Remastered, so I will experiment with VGP. I do hope it all goes well and I also do hope Play-Asia patches up some stuff and provides a better experience for the consumer. Honestly I think many people are going to really learn which places really care enough to make the shopping experience well in the near future.

Aside, I found 60% of the Ranma 1/2 manga (OG release) for $1 a book at a used book store.

23 total from the series.

Was quite happy.
 
Most of my GS purchases from the last week. Roughly ~50% of the new games arrived gutted, which is a lower rate than expected. And since half of my purchases were preowned, it's acceptable that i'm stuck with only 1 game (smtv:v) in a generic case. It will get tossed since I have an extra steelbook that I'll use. All of these games aside from Trails and the xbox/atlus games are new to me, so it's nice to have more to play and less gs trade credit.

Good sale.

There was a ~3hr window between the time I posted here about shipping availability and the time Wario hit the dog whistle. Hopefully people got what they wanted. As you can see I bought an extra Potionomics since I was indecisive on platform. I'm up for helping out a cag if you're still looking.

Wow they had Sword & Fairy in stock for shipping at one point crazy pickups

S&F, Granblue Relink Deluxe, and Anonymous;Code I had to drive to hunt down locally. Easiest way is to find the sku in the item page's url and ask an employee to print a receipt of local availability for the sku you give them.

There's one more CE I sniffed out but failed to obtain. The only one in my area. The employee tried to give me the standard edition and then "couldn't find it" when I asked them to check the drawers & back room. The sku is on the sticker (355870) if anyone else wants to hunt locally.

WOW. GS got so tired of people complaining about their gutted new games that they're now starting their own "Certified New" line. When the standard, nice and sealed in original plastic shrinkwrap from the factory that you can get from every reputable retailer isn't enough, and you want a copy that's been man handled and absorbed the farts of various GS employees, then you buy Certified New.

Only at GameStop.
 
I only use the economy free shipping at playasia. That does make sense, there are probably tons of packages being shipped now. Here is some of my tracking from a Feb order, 3 days to get to CA (I live in PA):

Wow that would be a sick find I had the same thing with the S&F CE at a store they tried looking for it in the store or back room but could not find it same with the AC Mirage one too
