No registration card. 2 discs, two booklets, and a spine card.

I've never seen a reg card for Border Down LE. My used but mint copy didn't come with one, and the seller said it was complete and he was the first owner (he even sent the opened shrink wrap along; why would he have taken out the reg card?). I do have a sealed LE here, but I don't really want to open it to have a look...

My copy (purchased new+sealed from NCSX) has one instruction booklet, one soundtrack booklet, and a spine card. No registration card.

This... is really strange. Because I've heard other people say that BD LE didn't have a reg. card, but I swear to you right now, behind the liner notes, I have an obi strip and reg. card put aside. And like I said, I bought it brand new, so it wasn't someone slipping some random reg. card in there for more value or something bizarre like that.


So... I have no idea.

This matches my experience exactly, for what it's worth.

JP, could it be that you put another game's reg card into your LE case by mistake? There is no mention of a Border Down reg card anywhere on the net. Just out of curiosity, could you take a photo?

Yeah, when my roomate gets in I'll get him to take a pic.

Its highly unlikely I put another game's reg. card in there, since I haven't messed with the area behind the liner notes since the game came out. In fact, when I was asked about this elsewhere, my initial thought was that it didn't have an obi strip or reg. card, but when I checked there was an obi strip AND reg. card tucked behind the liner notes, and as far as I know that was the first time I had ever looked behind there since I put that stuff back there.

Nevermind, I read the katakana on the card and some-fucking-how its not Border Down.

So I have no clue why its in my BD case. Maybe it was laying around loose and I thought it went in BD or something. I have no idea.

Another mystery solved.

So Neon, you can tell that buyer that he doesn't know squat.

Eh, I think the dude thought that because he asked me elsewhere, and despite thinking that there wasn't an obi strip or reg. card, I quickly glanced in my game case and saw an obi strip AND reg. card. So... I didn't bother reading the katakana on the card until just now. :?

Though I still don't know why that reg. card is in there. Because the game its from was like, really old (for the DC), and I cannot fathom its reg. card being out of its case at the time Border Down came out (since there's no way in hell I had been playing it or even messing with it at that time). :?

Edit:
Oh well, to make up for it, just so everyone knows:
Mizubaku Adventure on the Sega Saturn does NOT come with a registration card.

So there.

I'll be the first to admit that I don't know squat. I was just trying to find out one way or the other, and then things got complicated.

It's kinda funny how this incident spanned three different forums. :lol:
