What is this, the Cave-only pre-order thread now? Where's Radirgy Noir Massive and Strike Witches? Anyway, Resurrection/Dai-Fukkatsu is already listed at Play-Asia for $80. Perhaps they'll add an LE if/when it's announced.

Well, there were quite a few anouncements at the Cave Matsuri, including Radirgy Noa 360 (which I pre-ordered as well as DFK 1.5/1.51).

Keeping track of games beyond what I intend to buy is right under my radar, admittedly. I've added the two titles you've mentioned to first post, please post any update you find missing from the first post.

Holy shit , 80$ for the standard edition. Well fuck you , play asia :lol:

Guess they know that shmup players like to own/collect every Cave game and buy it no matter what , and they damn well take advantage of that .
They even used to send me special "japanese shooter" mail ads :mrgreen:

What the hell is wrong with Play-Asia's quick check out? Everyone be careful. That seems to remove coupons currently (at least for me) so you'd do well to use the normal check out.

ncsx is you're in the usa
videogameimports if you're in the uk

play-asia is actually very reliable.

if you want to pay even higher prices for less reliable service you can try yesasia

himeyashop will most likely have it as well for even higher prices.

Except for that Futari pre-order DLC card fiasco.

It's natural to expect high prices when the yen is at something like a 15 year high against the US dollar.

Y'all think we can assume that the first print of Bullet Soul comes with some kind of guide book, like the 5pb ports of the CAVE games?

NCSX are now accepting preorders for the regular edition of DDP:DFK ver 1.5.

They expect to start taking preorders for the LE on Monday or Tuesday of next week.
