Play-Asia selling Tatsujin for reasonable price

Keranu · 10/24/2006, 11:54 PM

I saw this while searching through Play-Asia and it seemed like a really good deal for it http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-8n-49-en-15-Tatsujin-70-1of6-43-kq.html . Doesn't this game normally go for $100 or so? Not sure if it's complete though. I'm not looking to buy it, but figured some people here might be interested.

A $100 on eBay most likely, but really they're $60 CIB. Thats what I paid for mine a few months ago.

Play-Asia has good price, but I'm too wondering if its complete or loose. It doesn't even say anything about its condition either or give a picture of the actual item. Still, for the desperate its cheaper than ebay.

Whoever buys it is gonna have one hell of a time trying to pass the first stage. I've only managed to reach the 3rd stage once. Setting the difficulty to easy doesn't relieve the pressure, still too hard.

I would like to buy that but damn theres not much there for description of what you get for what you pay.... >.<

Speaking of Taito I missed bidding on this .. and wanted to kick myself for forgetting about it till 1 hour after the bid ended..

I recently bought Dekoboko Densetsu from them, and was surprised to find that it was still unopened. Even the shrink was perfect. They must have a case of the things or something because according to the site I didn't get the last one.

I don't believe Play Asia sells loose hucards, or if they do the make a special note so that you know it's loose. Just email them, they are good about responding quickly.

Also if anyone is interested in buying that, check out this thread on the Shmups forums for coupon codes for Play-Asia. They're usually always posting a coupon for save $5 on orders $50 or more, so you could snag Tatsujin for $45.

Oh I see someone bought it already.

Too bad all sold out. I wonder who bought it?

No need to be sorry, I have my copy already. Good luck getting to pass the first stage, it's very hard. I highly recommend using a arcade joystick.

I think this shouldn't be much of a problem, I've played the MD version of the game for quite some time.

@elnino

The MD port is childs play compared to this.

You're right. I don't wanna know what the difficulty levels "Hard" and "Expart" (haha) will be like! Luckily I was able to get past the first level but not much further of course.

Actually they do, a friend of mine got his copy of Final Soldier Special Version from there

Jokes aside, the game came in really great condition and was even sealed but I can't really tell whether it was resealed (like Trader) or the original one. Anyway, it was a great bargain
