I ordered mine from Play-Asia. It's now in stock. Mine has already been shipped via super-slow economy SAVESAVESAVE shipping.
I also ordered a copy of the Twinkle Star Sprites remake, the "best" version that was re-released a while back. It has been held hostage for a month and a half or so, waiting for its partner in travel over the Pacific to finally be in stock.
Happy days are coming! Good thing I hooked the Dreamcast hooked up last weekend. I have a feeling it might stay there for a while, with Trigger Heart and Karous coming soon... |

| Yeah, I got the e-mail from play-asia this morning confirming it's been shipped, which made me realise how many damn games I have pre-ordered thru them that are coming out between now and the end of March and I should probably not buy anything else until then. |

Tell me about it. Salamander, Parodius, and Twinbee collections are coming from them. They got about a 2 day head start. Trigger Heart and Karous are on order, as well as my PS3 VF5 stick (thank you nice big holiday coupon pre-order). I need to put in my order for the Real Bout Fatal Fury collection too. Argh.
I think I need to pay attention to work now instead of posting on the interweb. I don't want to get fired, or I'll go broke because of all this. |

I was going to order those Konami shooter collections, but I barely played the Gradius Collection because the PSP just made it so... not fun. I might still pick up the Salamander collection just because Xexex is on it.
But I've got Trigger Heart, Karous, Trio the Punch, Thunder Cross and Hokuto no Ken pre-ordered.
Not to mention Chulip and The Red Star pre-ordered at GameStop.
Shit. |

Add Raiden III to the list of things I have pre-ordered at my local store.
I have a soft spot for this franchise.
Feb/March is the new Xmas in the gaming industry. Nice way to finish before that summer lull creeps in. _________________

Fuck. Hokuto no Ken. Gotta get on that too, at least it's a very late March release.
We are not allowed to bitch about no good games coming out, even for the "dead" 2D fighter and shooter genres. Yet I'm still looking to the future for the other SNK collections, KOF XII, and any more possible Cave PS2 ports. |

My copy is shipping now, along with Mother 3 which I thought might be translated by someone by now back when I ordered in in November.
I'd love to get Trigger Hearts and Karous, just because they'll officially be the last DC games, but my sudden lack of funds may make this impossible. |

Play-Asia is my friend. I just got Under Defeat and the Asian PSP Spectral vs, Generation (Best $18.00 I've ever spent for a 2D fighter,and boy, it sure seems to respond better than the Capcom ports did for me. I think they still have some at that price including shipping.)
I am also looking forward to Trigger Heart, as well as the GC release of Radirgy (aka Radio Allergy) and Raiden III and REd Star, as far as domestic releases. AND Hokuto no Hen, AND the Taito Best release of Ibara AND the game Last Hope...ugh! I need to sell some games so I can buy some games!
firenze, are you SURE you're not me? I mean, I can't believe how alike our tastes are, sir. _________________ Old man thread killer. |

This was cancelled due to lack of pre-orders. You'll have to hunt down the original release if you want to play it.
Add to all of this nonsense that the Kiki Kaikai 2 remake on PS2 is due out in March as well. |
