Falcom games through download purchase

[Incog Neato]

Have any of you tried to do this? :o

falcom.com/vector/game.html

Honestly, I'd rather get a physical copy of the games with pretty box art and a pretty manual but I actually wouldn't mind purchasing some of the older stuff this way.

However, I have no idea if they block foreign credit cards (in that you need a billing address within Japan) or something. Anyone know?

Hirm~~~~ I'm briefly skimming through the Help pages of Vector and nifty and they don't seem to mention anything. :/

Hmmm~!

Thanks for the links, nunuu. I wasn't aware of that.

Also, it's interesting to see they are selling Ys I COMPLETE and Ys II COMPLETE separately.


... Anyway, if anyone can lend me a hand somehow, I would certainly buy some of their games there, as I can not find some of them in physical form, that is, actually order them.
I would buy, precisely: Vantage Master (the original, not VMJ, which I already have), Minna no Vantage Master 1 and Minna no Vantage Master 2.

When I said "if someone could lend me a hand somehow", I actually mean... some assistance service. As far as abroad purchases of any nature go, all I can use, and also only at times, is PayPal. And to think even if I (or, in my case, my older brother, whose PayPal account I can sometimes use) had an International Credit Card could not be enough...
All I can use is the PayPal service. If anyone knows how a foreigner like myself could purchase from there, please, let me know.


EDIT: Spam. Yes.

Japan in general, outside of a few international eBayers, refuses to acknowledge that Paypal exists, so I think you're boned.

I was always under the impression that anything from Vector or EGG was Japan-only, but I honestly never tried, so who knows.

You are most likely right. =s

Oh, well. So, boned then.
I should spam about it. Yes.
