Jamestown is on the current humble bundle. Pay what you want and also get Fez for free. See which one deserved the hype.

R-Type is Amazon's free app of the day. Friday, September 12th.

Even a substandard port of R-Type is worth something.

I think this deserves its own thread.

Strikers 1945 I & II and shikigami 2 are $3 each on the AUS PSN store. I'm pretty sure that deal is valid for all PAL PSN stores.

Any Caladrius Blaze deals out there? I'm interested in the game, but not at $60+. Lowest price I've seen so far was Play-Asia's $64.99 deal last week.

Something I find wonderful.

Sales on this forum are neither greedy nor charity. People here know that what they put into the situation they get out of the situation. Price things without the intention of ripping people off means you get a quick sale and someone on this forum gets a good deal. Then when you want something from a member of this forum you are treated fairly, given a price that is fair and treated like an enthusiast and not like a mark. People here do not want to exploit each other.

And all the people who literally have hundreds posts, and only one isn't in the Trading Station. Those with MP SEND and exorbitant prices, gougers, etc. Sickening.

Also has NOS Dracula Densetsu IIs for sale at the same price (which is an ever better deal).

Nabbed one of each, thanks CIT! I'd been pondering whether to get a Super Gameboy for Nemesis II and a few miscellaneous action games. ^__^

Super Gameboys can be had for mere shekels and those two show Konami at their classic gameboy best, so I think you'll enjoy them. :)

Not sure what Blazblue is doing in a "doujin" bundle, but Reflex and Danmaku Unlimited 2 are in there too.
