Ah that sucks :( There's a midwest tourney here (mostly tekken, only SIX VF players, rofl) but I wanted to get some practice against people with the stick. Ah well, pad for me for a while longer!
 
I've always wanted to get a JP PS2, but without any games it's hard to take the plunge. What are some good JP-only games that are in this sale?

are you guys buying today the site says 30th to the 5th?
That's what I've been wondering as well. I'm looking at the White PSP but I figure there's no "20% OFF HOLY CRAP" next to it since it's not Friday yet.

I wonder if I save anything on US games? since PlayAsia would mark up US games for other markets

Maybe I can get WiiPlay from them, I don't see ExciteTruck :(

I want a Japanese Wii at some point down the line

I don't think I save a damn thing $47.92 USD for WiiPlay $ 5.30 shipping

exactly what is the difference between 'Asia' and 'Japan' versions of games? Just language, or is there some kind of better/worse 'game quality' issue involved as well?
 
I don't know about other systems, but with 360 games, 'Japan' versions are in Japanese and will only work on Japanese systems. 'Asia' versions are in English (they're basically the same as the American version), and some are region-free (so, they would be playable on non-Japanese systems).

At least, that's my understanding of how it works.

Unless otherwise noted, Asian versions of Playstation 2/3 games are typically the Japanese versions with a one page insert that explains the controls and basic gameplay in English.
 
Shit!

I just bought a J-PS2
- Garou MotW
- Samurai Spirits Iroha's Giant Titties Edition
- HOKUTO NO KEN

Can you configure a J-PS2 to play Region 1 DVD's? Just curious as that would make it a bit more functional.

God damn it. . .
 
So, is rhythm tengoku worth $32? I doubt it will get cheaper any time soon :\


Also, anyone know if Driller GC can save on Wii with Action Replay? I doubt it, but it's worth asking since I want desperately to play this game
 
everyone get 'rhythm tengoku,' definitely one of last year's best games and totally worth over $40. it's a steal at this price.

Anyone play this? Is it a collection of SS games (and if so which ones), or it is like some crazy Hyper Street Fighter Alpha version with all of the characters thrown into one game?
