What is special with your Sword of Mana? I didn't know there were multiple releases of it.

The List:

*Zelda The Wind Waker (special double disc case with OOT bonus game - not like the NA release which has a normal TWW case and comes with a seperate case for the bonus disc)
*Ys V Expert (not exactly a limited edition per se, but it was literally a very limited release)
*Falcom Classics LE with some Falcom info bonus disc
*Falcom Classics 2 LE with a soundtrack bonus disc
*Ys Eternal LE with a 3-cd box of Ys stuff
*YsF "LE" (not exactly limited) with 8 cds and YsF picture thingy
*Ys 1-2 Complete golden case/book thingy with anime dvd (it's such an eye sore)
*Ys Origin with artbook and bonus disc
*Ys 6 LE with Ys 1-5 disc and Falcom DVD
*Ys 6 Collector's Pack with all the Ys6LE bonuses and all FSB04 Ys things, an Ys6 phone card....and a poster I think

I also have some other Falcom first editions... but I'm not sure if they can be considered limited, since they might have been the only releases.

That's it I think. Mostly Ys things since I used to collect them. I'm not big on limited editions. I only got that special Zelda thing because I wanted to play OOT Master Quest (which I enjoyed a lot more than TWW itself).

The only SE item I have is:

Final Fantasy XII Collector's Edition (PS2).

I should have mentioned it's the Japanese release. It came with a cute Lil' Cactus solar-powered calendar holder. The Cactus would sway side to side. ^o^ Or, at least it was supposed to. >_> Mine is defective and is only attracted to the right side.

The box also contained the game (duh), a little Rabite toy, and the calendar cards.

[FM-77AV]

Nice! I would like to have one of those. Special releases that come with neat items are cool! Special releases that come in metal boxes, not that funny.

[Falcom Director of Fanservice]

Lessee... uh.

Lunar SSS Complete
Lunar EB Complete
Arc the Lad Collection
Growlanser Collection
Persona 3 (If that counts)

...Dunno about any others. Hafta think about it.

Growlanser Collection

Oh! I forgot I had this too! I assume you meant the Growlanser I, II, and III set? :D

[Falcom Director of Fanservice]

I don't even know, I've yet to play it. It is next on my console game list, but I'm not home at the moment.

Well, here's the thing!

The Japanese Growlanser collection is a bigass rectangular box (like the size of a slipcase for a 12" record) with 4 discs -- 2 for Growlanser and 1 for G2 and 1 for G3.

The Growlanser Generations from Working Designs is just of G2 and G3 and is in a regular DVD case.

But if there was another Japanese collection, I wouldn't know. DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD:

[Falcom Director of Fanservice]

Well it's in a big ole box. But it's also bought from a US Funcoland.

So I guess the latter.

[afiqys]

Halo 3 Legendary Edition
God of War 2
and planning to get Devil May Cry 4 Special Edition

[Lumi]

Ys: The Oath in Felghana
Ys Origin
Sora no Kiseki the 3rd
Lunar SSSC
Lunar EBC
Eternal Arcadia Limited Box (Japanese DC version!)

Does Tales of the Abyss count? I got a little preorder bonus lithograph with it that was a bit silly.


Edits: ...I keep finding stuff to add to this list that I've forgotten ARE special editions. Duh...

[Ascended Mermaid]

Wow, this seems to be a famous pattern. Let me join in.

Ys: Oath in Felghana
Ys Origin
Lunar: SSSC
Lunar: EBC

Modify: Oh, and of course... The Wind Waker (USA); "gold" case + disk w/Ocarina of Time Master Quest. So much for Tetra's Trackers.

[Lumi]

Heh, probably because those were all fairly easy to snag. And I suspect 90% of the regulars on this board preordered Ys Origin (probably Felghana too), so we at least have THAT.

They aren't special editions or anything, but I CAN at least claim I still own the original Sega CD Lunar games. Silver Star and Eternal Blue, both.

[FM-77AV]

Gief!

[Cyhirae]

Got a few lying around...

Growlanser Generations (American release)
Arc the Lad Collection
Lunar: Silver Star Complete
Lunar: Eternal Blue Complete
Guildwars - Collector's edition
Guildwars Factions - Collector's edition
Guildwars Nightfall - Collector's edition

That's all I can recall off hand.

LIES.

Okei, maybe not. I'm in that 10% that didn't because I didn't want a billion discs of Ys III music. Not that I hate the music. I love the PC Engine version but really now ...

[Lumi]

Well, I did say probably Felghana too.

I didn't actually preorder it either, but I got the limited edition cuz uh.. o.O? Well, that's what Play-Asia sent me. I don't think I really knew what the heck I was ordering at the time, version-wise.

[Justin]

Reading this topic really makes me miss Working Designs even more. I have all there games except for elemental gearbolt.

As for lunar I have the american sega cd releases, the japanese saturn releases and the american ones. What I am looking for is the hard bound Strategy Guides!!

I was very lucky to snag a copy of rockman X3 for the saturn, and radiant silvergun. I have the "fuu" disk for magic knight rayearth, but also a copy of the japanese edition w the art book.

[FM-77AV]

Man, I would kill for Working Designs' Magic Knight Rayearth.

I would also kill for their Popful Mail.
