Ketsui now on Japanese PSN Store

[DanMagoo]

Hi all,

I have just noticed that Ketsui is available on the Japanese PSN Store, for JPY 6,300.

At today's exchange rates that means:

GBP ~£37

USD ~$60

However as you are likely to have to buy a Japanese PSN card, the GBP cost of £70 for JPY 10,000 on PlayAsia means you will pay £44 really (and have enough left over for 4-6 classics such as Dodonpachi, Einhander, Raiden, G-Darius, Pang(!) etc.)

Still much cheaper than the import disc alternative for Ketsui!

Posting this as a new thread because I haven't seen this info anywhere else online. It certainly hasn't reached Wikipedia...

If you want to set up a Japanese PSN account, this handy Kotaku guide is extremely helpful:

Peace out and keep the faith alive, fellow PS-Heads.

PS any tips on where to get cheaper JPY PSN cards gratefully received!

PPS Who do we have to bribe to get this on the EU and USA PSN stores??

Can probably go in the general Ketsui PS3 thread

Google loves this forum as a source of info on Shmups.

Leaving this thread as it is makes it easier for people to find the info by searching...

Rancor has
sorted me out for all my JP gaming needs so maybe shoot him a PM to see if he can help with the PSN cards.
