Is the story of the first one irrelevant?

Also how the sunlight thing exactly work?
Get it. The sunlight thing works by holding your GBA up to the sun. You know how the old myth goes; vampires + sun = pwnage.

Australia? That'll be the PAL one, then. It's pretty rare. I'd pick it up, if I were you.

Did you get it?
Otherwise I would recommend it, its a little tricky in the beginning but it is definitely one of the better GBA games IMO.

I still need to pick up the Japanese version of Lunar Knights.

Also hope that there will be a new Boktai in the future.

A little late, I know.

So I guess all you need now is Shinbok and you got the collection complete.
Rather difficult title to track down I must say, best chance would be Ebay or some of the game stores in Hong Kong.
