RSG publish DDP Resurrection in Europe

[TrevHead (TVR)]

While I do want to play BL over 1.5 it would be great if RSG made the other modes available to us, either on disk or as a 800 - 1200msp DLC, or even better a seperate release.

There's no way on this earth that any of the other modes will be released as a seperate retail release outside Japan. It'll either all be on 1 disc or 1 disc + DLC.

Yeah I totally agree with you theres no way we will see 2 boxed versions of DFK, I should of said in the post that I was just daydreaming

(as this is all based from a rumour im just making speculation)

Ive thought that RSG & Cave might make more money from both games, if they included 1.5 and BL as a double pack and bump up the RRP by £10, I recon gamers will be fine with that as long as they know what they are getting is two seperate titles. The Ketsuipatchi mode should be fine as DLC and should sell given the lack of a PAL Ketsui.

Walking further down speculation road, I wonder if RSG have looked at how Cave handle their pre order DLC, whilst having pre-order DLC like MMP & PS which really should of been included as regular DLC. But if they are including all 3 versions it might be wise to make Ketsuipachi as pre order only DLC (or keep it exclusive for 3 months) that way more ppl will buy the game for full price rather than wait until its dirt cheap.

Judging by RSG reactions to peoples posts it seems that the rumor is true but no definite answer from Rising Star Games.

I invested a pretty sum in a jtagged xbox because I knew I would be worth it for all the free games I would be able to play, but I don't want to spend any actual money on games.

If you had checked Play Asia, you'd have found these:

Then, there's Dodonpachi Dai Fukkatsu for under 40 bucks:

But let's not kid ourselves, you're not going to buy any of these games...

[JJXB]

I'll buy. but when they are released over here. and you really doubt i'd buy it? I bought deathsmiles AND guwange so i am happy to support western releases of these games so I would buy DDPDFK in a heartbeat if RSG released it here but why should I have to import to play them?
either way, I am willing to spend money on games. what I am not willing to do is piss about with importing. It's the same reason I don't own any DJMax Portable games.

[DrTrouserPlank]

Importing really is zero hassle. It's no different to buying anything else online so I don't really see how that's a justification for pirating the games. Now I don't care whether anyone pirates it or not as it doesn't affect me, but defending piracy by saying that importing is too much trouble is a bit of a thin excuse in my opinion.

The prices listed above are very reasonable as things go. I paid about $45 for Daifukkatsu 1.5 recently and thought it was cheap at that.

[Sumez]

The risk of nearly doubling the price and having to wait 3 weeks extra to receive the game, because it gets stuck in the customs, is not "zero hassle" in my world.

The taxes in Denmark must be terrible then. The Uk's taxes are bad enough, but nothing like you are describing. VAT at 20% will be the biggest addition to any import if it gets caught.

Wow really? For a $40 game? That sucks man.

It's 50% here and in Brazil if I'm not wrong if and when the customs decide to screw you over with things like this... Call it "blocking importation of goods" by the government and "protecting the local industry".

[DrTrouserPlank]

Denmark must be pretty expensive in general if they are forced to charge a 50% import levy in order to make Danish prices more attractive?

Country irrespective it's annoying to be charged duty for buying something that isn't available in your native country. The idea of charging duty to stop cheap imports killing the home-economy makes sense, but one has to say it does seem "unfair" to be charged duty on something that you couldn't have bought at home, and therefore the government have lost nothing on from the imported purchase.

Wish it were that simple here. Our VAT is 25% but there's a bunch of extra fees, meaning you'll get punished more for buying cheaper items, basically.

MITE B COOL

We will be charged import duty as well, and to be honest I'm not sure what rate they apply to games but I think it will be between 5-10% of the declared value, and then VAT applied to that new cumulative total.

Lets say the game is £40. Shipping is £10. Customs fee is about £20. Then you have to pay 25% vat of that total = 1.25 x £70. Welcome to denmark.

Man this discussion sure has alot to do with Rising Star Games DFK rumor.

[Sumez]

Ok

[Midey]

The rumor = true.

Awesome sweet I think we need to rename the thread eh?

[Sumez]

I'll take a wild guess that item is simply based on the same sources as the rumor that started this thread - ie. nothing new. RSG still haven't confirmed anything.

The French Amazon doesn't have a cover, the title is "misspelled" (lower case R), and I'm sure the price is completely off - it's the absolute max price for a new X360 game (they don't even charge that much for LA Noire), and I doubt RSG would release a game at that price, especially a niche game like this.

[Bananamatic]

I've seen 360 games go for more over here tbh

[Aliquantic]

Deathsmiles retailed for €40 or so at first on some websites (like here even today), and there was a pretty wide variation even on release day, so €45 doesn't look so unbelievable as MSRP

I have seen games going for 59 euros...

[Bananamatic]

65 here.

[Sumez]

You guys seem to be completely ignoring the point I was making.
But if you honestly think that shop item is based on solid confirmed information about an upcoming release sent to Amazon, fine with me.

That said, I'm sure RSG are working on getting this game to Europe, judging by everything they've hinted so far.

[emphatic]

Let's hope they bring along BL Arrange for the PAL people as well.

[Sumez]

I don't care about any of the other modes as long as they bring BL arrange

If this is true it'll be great news...and really bad timing. October? You gotta be fucking kidding! People will be busy playing Dark Souls, Radiant Silvergun and many others...
