I was lucky on getting Attack on Titan 2 Final Battle PS4.  I bought it at amazon a few years ago when they discounted it to $17.

 

The contents of the Neptunia: Sisters VS Sisters Limited Edition has been revealed.

Is anyone else not able to log into Namco? I reset my password and logged in and it says invalid password... but then get an email saying "new device log in". But I can't access my account or check out without them asking me to log in, which even though I'm putting in my correct password, it's saying invalid. Trying to preorder the ToS special edition. 

 

I did the account upgrade a while back and did use my account before to purchase stuff. But man, their new website is dogshit. 

I have the same problem. Tried multiple browsers on my laptop, same thing. The only way I was able to log in was with my phone's mobile browser.

Holy shit, thank you. I emailed Namco twice, both times they told me the same generic: it's you, not us.

No store around me had a copy of Tactics Ogre Reborn for Switch (or any other system, from what I saw).  Had to order on Amazon. 

Wonder how low the sales will be for the re-re-remake of a SNES game versus God of War II and Sonic Frontier?

Wish TMNT would come back in stock... 

 

Also wondering if we'll see more B2G1Fs this yr. I know we had quite a few last year but it seems like there's been a lot of early BF deals this year and also who knows with the economy. Also insane how much money I've spent with Target this year... and how little I've spent at BB.

Some $10 titles live on the GS website currently.
:ps4: DRAGON QUEST XI S: Echoes of an Elusive Age Definitive Edition
:ps4: Kingdom Hearts Melody of Memory
Free shipping is hilariously bad at $59 but store pickup works along with a 5% discount.  Certificates stack as well.

Shipping is weird now as well. Some items are 15$ for shipping which is completely ludicrous. Others are still 5$. Ymmv.

Wow that was nuts.  I was trying to check out and then the listing went unavailable at all stores and it rejected my order.  Kept refreshing and trying and got one for pickup at the Mall of America.   wonky listing.  My checkout came to $27.55 before tax. Seems like a price mistake.

 

Crazy deal.  I had this game bookmarked at multiple stores and was checking it all last week.  Thanks for posting!

Have other people started to get their P5 Royal CE from Atlus? I remember seeing somone saying they received theirs but I haven't gotten any updates. 

 

Also just got a notification from NISA that there's a delay in shipment... love how they have no issues processing payment 3-4 weeks early though.

Been busy but am mentioning some visual novels that came out recently and have release discounts.

 

First of all JAST USA released Gore Screaming Show. This is a horror visual novel and I've heard it's a bit disturbing. I am linking the 18+ Steam patch, and it's a good idea to play with the patch or from their website as the game on Steam is pretty heavily censored and missing routes. It has a 10% discount until November 18th.

JAST USA also released Slow Damage, which is a BL game. It looks very high quality being a Nitro+chiral title.

Sekai Project/Denpasoft released the final part in the trilogy of A Clockwork Ley-Line: Flowers Falling in the Morning Mist. It is highly recommended to play them in order as the story builds off the previous ones. There is an 18+ patch for the Steam version not needed for the Denpasoft version. There is a 10% discount until November 18th.

Also Fakku released St. Yariman's Little Black Book ~Complete~ from Orcsoft. This is a remake of a 2011 VN. This looks like a nukige about a guy who worked all his life for his wife and she ends up cheating on him. He ends up getting divorced and this is his story right after that where he meets five escorts.

Gore Screaming Show is the probably the most R18 VN on Jast USA... and that's saying quite a lot.

One time open order reprint for Berserk Band of the Hawk PS4

VGP said they tried to get Godzilla reprinted but prob due to licensing issue, that's a no go

Great news on Berserk. I already have a copy so I'll be sitting out, but I know it's been overpriced for a while. Hopefully this helps correct the market.

 

The game itself is fine. It's a poor way to experience Berserk's story for the first time, though. There's a lot that they truncate or just skip over. Normally I'm not a stickler on having to read the source material first, but Berserk is legitimately one of the greatest stories I've encountered in any medium. I'd hate for that to be the way someone is introduced to the IP. Gameplay is exactly what you'd expect from a musou, and there are a good variety of characters that feel like they represent the characters in the series well.

The Dreamcast Berserk game was my first exposure to it.

#36208 Tothoro

Sword of Berserk (DC) is a bit different. It just has a side story that has no real implication on or retelling of the main plot. Band of the Hawk (the PS4 game) is a retelling of the manga's plot from the Golden Age arc to the Milennium Falcon arc (about 300 chapters of the manga and 25 years of its publication run). In order to cover that much ground, they shorten pretty much every arc and omit a few entirely.

Oof... I made bad calls on Attack on Titan Final Battle and Berserk Band Hawk and paid a LOT for used copies of both (as in... a LOT) because I didn't think they'd ever get reprinted. Oh well, maybe I'll learn one day...... 

 

Of course, Godzilla was the one I didn't overpay for so that one's not getting a reprint. LOL

Monochrome Mobius: Rights and Wrongs Forgotten has now been released on steam. 10% launch discount.

$48.59 by completing this bundle if you own the previous games, as I do.  Might be enough to get me to buy this on release day, considering it's probably important to support this release.
