In Wired September 2005 issue, article of shmup Superplays!

Post by PC Engine Fan X! »

In the September 2005 issue of Wired, on page 62, there is a full page spread touting the virtues of watching Japanese shmup (& fighting) Superplay DVDs. It lists several shmup Superplay DVDs that the author has checked out that he thinks are worth viewing.

The cool Gradius V background pic in the Wired Superplay article really caught my attention as I was casually flipping through the current Wired issue magazine on newstands now across the USA.

What's cooler than playing videogames?
Watching people better than you play.
No, it's really not.

So I guess, being as there is a magazine article, this means that the value of DVD replays has just trippled on eBay.

I'm selling my

Ikaruga Appreciate DVD RARE! for £100

also my

!!RARE!! Gradius V !!RARE!! for £500

Any takers? Go on, it's a bargain!

Cheers

You still have that Gradius V?
Does the price include shipping to the Netherlands?

Yeah.. I think he's referring to the commentary on the Options DVD.

Not to mention that Clover-TAC and Kyojou are the two players responsible for the replays on The Perfect DVD.
