I just took a look at YesAsia's site, their offering seem promising. I would tried placing my next order at them and see if they are nice to a cat. *Meow*

Let see what to order... May be "Angelic Concert Encore" for my sister. *Meow* Let see if their order would also arrive overnight.

Play-Asia doesn't charge before shipping, unless you choose to pay via PayPal.

Bad Idea, my sister told me that "Angelic Concert Encore" should cost only $26 at Local PC games retail store.

for those curious, arika has posted a new espgaluda arrange video with black. what makes this worth the download however is an extra minute of Mushihimesama PS2 footage at the very end of the video. the also show a brief clip of the true final boss, just to show the PS2 can handle it. comforting.

How would Arika get ahold of PS2 Mushihime-sama footage? I'm downloading it to see anyway.

Still downloading it, 160+ megs, yowza. This better be one clear video.

Just watched the Mushihime promo at the end of the Esp replay. Alll I can say is....

Beautiful. Looks like the port is coming along nicely. My jaw almost dropped when I saw the bullet swarm from the final boss looking just as it did from the arcade replays.

Even if I don't get the game, I need that hat.

That's the only Cosplay I've seen that I like.

If Taito had ditched the figurine in the "special edition" and replaced it with the beetle hat, they would have had me in the palm of their hand. Someone in that marketing division needs to be fired.

Well, it says "PS2" at the top...if they put that there and were actually showing arcade footage, that'd be a really dirty marketing tactic...

And man, those "looks like there's no space between the bullets but there actually is if you position your hitbox juuuuust right" spots are going to beat me up and take my lunch money if I end up getting this.

GaijinPunch · Post by **GaijinPunch** » Thu Jun 23, 2005 1:08 am

we'll find out in a month.

A month

Shit, i should probably get round to buying that Japanese PS2 then or I'll be stuck with an awesome game I can't play.

If Elaine from Seinfeld was in charge I'm sure we would have at least gotten a nice Mushihime themed "Urban Sombrero." I mean a figurine? C'mon...

Just as long as they didn't atttempt a new take on the "bro" (or "man-ssiere," whichever you like better).

captain ahar · Post by **captain ahar** » Fri Jun 24, 2005 7:19 pm

my copy only cost me $50.39!

turns out i didn't get screwed by Yesasia. they filed a temp charge when i placed the pre-order and then later replaced it with the standard "no charge until shipment" non-charge. i sure have a way with the english language, don't i? we've been going steady for 20+ years now... but she still won't give it up. *sigh*

anyway, i suppose i want to take all my spewed venom. i'll leave it up for peeps to read though (with disclaimer), cause it was fun to write.

They did that with Tekken 5 on one set of promo videos - they called it "Tekken 5 PS2" and included a note in English at the top that said "video is from a work in progress" and in Japanese at the bottom it said "video is from arcade version."
