I preordered from Play Asia, ended up having to buy two because the first one I bought was not the English cover and you know Play Asia is no returns no refunds They are like that? They sent me a Japanese cover Pocky n Rocky but the game is in english. Is your Asia-English Klonoa mailed already? Maybe, just maybe depending, I could buy you out of it as i don't give a crap about the cover, as long as the game is in english since people are too damn cheap to make manuals anymore it's just a sticker and paper sleeve at this rate. I've got Pocky like this, and years ago I Am Setsuna too. I thought Klonoa was up for a US release, what kind of bullshit is that?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm...seems pretty messed up given the install base from the three primary regions. Most confusing. I'll have to look and see who is handling it then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds good game releases 07/07 but I also got GrimGrimoire OnceMore on this order which releases 07/28 so its going to be middle of August before these arrive.

Ampplays | 55 Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 (edited) The version of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge get's a free CD, we always get taxed for this stuff! https://www.play-asia.com/teenage-mutant-ninja-turtles-shredders-revenge-english/13/70fhw9 Edited June 12, 2022 by Ampplays 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ampplays | 55 Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 (edited) The Target B2G1 sale is live! I got these! They had the new TMNT game on the deal which was a nice surprise! So I guess $21 for a pre-order isn't bad even without the CD. Edited June 12, 2022 by Ampplays 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makar | 1,946 Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 For any yokai fans, it looks like the 4th one will be on the switch later this year or 2023 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
360collector | 289 Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 I just learned that D3 is going to bring the simple series of cheap games to the switch. I hope you switch freaks can keep on top of that cause some of those games are usually rly good and get expensive later 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That one though has the amazing sound track without having to pay more, and that diorama isn't utterly lame either and would present nicely on a shelf too. I'm curious about the klonoa they have, one has an english cover (guessing the $53 one) and the other english-asia one just has the japanese cover for ($47). Since it doesn't have a printed manual, seems $6 is a bit much for one time readable slip art at least to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanooki | 4,943 Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 Is it that the physical version of Turtles on Switch(etc) comes out at the last week of July? I'm trying to figure out the best choice on this one. Seems if you don't want any of the goodies, best buy probably is the best bet for fastest pick up or amazon. It's LRG, but this is clearly going immediate retail so this won't be some 9-12mo free no interest loan with a game very much later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not 100% sure it’s coming to the U.S. might be fakenews sorry.

Makar | 1,946 Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 Heads up, all Shantae games are 40-50% off on the eshop for 3 more days. I just got the original shantae for $5 to try out. Better than paying a grand for the original GBC cart lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tanooki | 4,943 Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 @Makar If that's the case, they're stupid, and wrong. If it has a legit licensing agreement and is sold at some form of retail, it's part of the library whether their delusion accepts it or not. And on that, I'm really really curious to know just how many LRG boxed copies of the original GBC Shantae were made/sold from start to them dribbling out so called 'extras' were all said and done **VS** the original Capcom published copy. This would really setup a fascinating thing potentially. What if there were less LRG games, but the Capcom one keeps commanding many times over the money on it? It proves that rarity which should be trumping all things in monetary value, yet grifting made up shit has the money behind it. Kind of breaks down the reality of how far things went wrong.

Every limited print release with open pre-order is heavily bought by resellers (and a good portion of sales go to game stores that carry the games, etc.) and after the games ship there's a considerable supply readily available at eBay and at stores like VGP, VGNY, PNP, etc. Lots of copies end up selling secondhand for basically a loss. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I often wonder why collectors of full sets (which I only vaguely get in any event) worry about what other people think constitutes a full set - collect what you think is a full set for crying out loud. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makar | 1,946 Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 I’m just glad I’m not a full set switch collector. The LRG games alone would make that a massive (expensive) headache. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
