20% off everything in stock.
I'm going to take the opportunity to pick up Monster World Compete Collection and Rhythm Tengoku, I think. Anyone else going to get anything? It'd be cool to list what good imports Play-asia has that are cheap, in stock, and never going to be released here. Maybe Initial D: Special Stage? I've always wanted that. _________________ aerisdead

Monster World isn't part of this deal, sadly.
Releases in the past 30 days are excluded. Though Treasure Box for $22~ish. That's good! It's gonna be awhile before I even am able to have a moment to scour through all that wonderful stuff!
Bit Generations are stupid cheap though. $12 for many of the individual titles. I labeled this in the bit Generations thread, but I may as well say it here too. |

I bought Rhythm Tengoku and Blokus Club: Featuring Bumpy Trot!
I'm kinda pissed that I bought Monster World earlier this week instead of waiting until now. Grr.

This is a perfect opportunity to get Rhythm Tengoku for the perfect price.
I highly recommend the game. _________________ “The average man has a secret desire to be a swaggering, drunken, fighting, raping swashbuckler.”

I think that's them after reduction?
They'd normally be $48, I'm sure.
I have too many rhythm action games though now so... I'm going to skip that one right now. _________________ aerisdead |

I was going to get Rhythm Tengoku earlier today, but while adding stuff to my account the cable went out. When I came back to get it an hour ago it had changed from "ships in 24 hours" to "ships in 1 week," so the discount disappeared. Fuck! I got DoDonPachi Dai-Ou-Jou and ESPGaluda instead. I'd been meaning to get both for a while. |

I was going to get a fancy ol' GP2X since I just gots paid, but apparently they sold out of the systems between 12AM and 8AM EDT.
I am blaming you Europeans for this travesty!
My curiosity will now not be fulfilled. >: | |

I was going to order Crackdown, Lost Planet, and a bunch of the simple 2000 series games (oneechanbara!) but my coworkers said to wait until they looked through the listings so we could save on shipping. I waited until today, and virtually everything I wanted is no longer discounted or in stock ;_; _________________ resetbutton.net: videogames for unattractive people |

This page is very helpful
#95 Zombie versus Ambulance sounds very intriguing!
Edit: fuck i need to get some of these, if only for their names. Shit like #109 The Taxi 2 ~You are Still the Driver!~ is comedic gold.
More edit: I think you want #99 The Genshijin the primitive man _________________ resetbutton.net: videogames for unattractive people

The PC games on this site are way fucking over-priced. Even with the 20% discount. _________________

Hot.
I also have Fighting Angels (an all female wrestling game where every character is wearking a bikini. Also you can smash each other with chairs and pick up a machine gun), Zombie... zombie something, where you run around a city killing zombies as a chick in a bikini wearing a cowboy hat, and Demolition Girl, where you fly a chopper and have to stop a 50 foot bikini model from destroying everything.
I'm not sure what the japanese names for them are, though. These are the english versions (which you yankess didn't get). _________________

oh shit, that maid game looked awesome in the trailers. I need that one. What else is there?
P.S, all the simple games I have are more fun to imagine playing than actually play. I got all mine together for like $20 so it was a good deal.
I hear the more recent ones are actually getting pretty good, though. Like the maid one and that caveman one. _________________

That's Demolition Girl. It would be awesome if the controls weren't so sluggish. I still managed to finish it though! Entertaining enough. _________________

Yes, but he also isn't very picky. Ask him his opinion on things, and he likes almost anything (see any thread he's made a list for). That I like stuff he didn't like, must mean I have even looser standards than him (which is probably true).
I realize there's a reason these games are all $20 new, but that really doesn't matter to me.
Edit: No this is the music video I was thinking of, it's like a million years old. _________________ resetbutton.net: videogames for unattractive people |

you're playing the gameboy advance equivalent of lumines. i didn't like it; some people do. rather than look up an explanation on how you're supposed to work it, try and develop some confidence in what behaviors actually make the game "respond" in a tangible way - that was the most enjoyable part of it for me. |

I'm more disappointed that I wanted to wait for payday to try and secure a GP2x and a fancy colored PSP. Unfortunately the rest of the world thought the same and beat me to the punch on gobbling up those systems.
They still have those pink PSPs in stock, but that's just a bit too pink for me. |

You could always get the value pack which is still in stock, just more expensive.
