Well, hopefully we'll both be hearing something soon. The weekend is coming up as well, so it might be Monday before we hear anything. Let me know if your secondary email does the trick though and I'll send one as well! : 0
Unsavory: Sure man, though it'll probably be awhile before that next batch of auctions comes. 3 weeks to a month at least. Gotta hold out for that last Xanadu book. Also, ordered that Faxanadu Choose-Your-Own-Adventure Novel for your friend that recently contacted me about Faxanadu stuff and the Adventym site.

There's a Faxanadu Choose-Your-Own-Adventure book? Seriously?! Damn... I want that, too! -Tom Faxanadu Choose-Your-Own-Adventure NovelHehe, well if you do not already have access to importing stuff from Yahoo Auction, I can try and find a good auction price for you and order it with the other stuff being sent. Then I could just mail it on over to you. But, wait, aren't you in Japan now? If you are, then you would surely have a much easier means of getting this! : ) I'd like for you to get it too since I'd be itching to hear your synopsis of the book or more details of how the adventure goes when compared to the original game. -Thomas Edit: Thanks for finding that information out Floofy! I had not realized it was Golden Week in Japan. Yeah, I'd be real surprised to hear back from anyone during this time. It makes sense now. : )

Ah I see, yes, I guess I did miss that topic. Awesome stuff that you're working for a gaming localization position. Now I'm wondering which company! : ) Well, I'm not 100% sure of this book being an exact style format of our Choose-Your-Own-Adventure books, but the format of the book is setup in a way that there are specific chapters that link to various keys that you would use, just like in the game. : ) It looks to me as though there are different scenarios and boss fights as well based on the path you decide on. I could be wrong though, which I why I'd like to hear your take on what you think it really is and what it is about sometime. : ) Directory of Artwork Scans from the Novel-Thomas

Got my reply about the Zwei/Ys Chronicles special. The shipping for my bundle is 3000 Yen. About average for packages like that.

Well, look at what popped onto the Weekly Special...
Legend of Heroes VI: Sora no Kiseki First Chapter (PSP) Legend of Heroes VI: Sora no Kiseki Scenario Book (Which you hope any official translator for a possible license has a copy of this.)
Legend of Heroes VI: Sora no Kiseki drama CD (My ability to read Japanese is nearly non-existant, so someone else translate it.) Falcom Calendar 2010-2011 (Not for Sale)
All for 4700 yen (Normal price: 8940 yen)
Good until 5/20 or when 20 orders have been received.
An omen, perhaps?

By the way...
What exactly is the difference between the version of Genso Sangokushi II (PC) being offered in the Weekly Sales and the version that comes up when you click on the product page?
Thanks,
C.T.

Looks to be... absolutely nothing! (: It's even the same product number: 883AA. Though the price is listed differently on the special page than on the product page, which is kind of bizarre! I find that that's the case with a lot of specials in that the special price is only reflected on the Weekly Specials page and not the official order page itself. ^^;

What puzzles me is that the regular price for the game is almost 1000 yen different between what is listed on the Weekly Sales and the actual product page. That is too small of a difference between a regular and a premium version, but darn of I know what else might account for it. C.T.

I want Dinosaur, don't I? Will there be a fan translation? ...or an official one someday? If it'll be in English sometime, I want it. XD

Hmmm... shipping is like $30, isn't it? So that'd be roughly $40... as tempting as this is, I have to skip. Just like I skipped the DDRX/dancemat bundle for less than $20, and Zwei II. XD
Though... I'm still not very smart when I DO spend my money. >.< Someone save me from myself.

Well, EMS might be expensive, but you do pretty much get what you pay for in terms of handling, as long as there's a competent shipper doing the work inside your country.
Like I've said before, when I ordered from Falcom last year, the package took less than a day to get to New York. It then took 4 days to get to my house. That says a lot about both ends, haha.

Post by cxt217 on Jun 18, 2010 20:05:23 GMT -5
So...This week's special...
A mystery selection of 4 Falcom albums, for just 3800 yen.
Good until 6/24 or after the first 30 orders have been filled.
On a related note, anyone remember exactly what the Zwei 2 Plus weekly special within the last couple weeks consisted of? For some reason, I thought there was one more item listed as part of the deal...

This week's special offer sounds so very inventory-clearing like to me.
Hey guys send us some money and we'll give you some CDs that're collecting dust in the back of our storage! You may or may not have them already!
