I'll Help You Get Games From Japan

Post by Made in DNA »

I not only have an Amazon acct, but a Yahoo Auctions Japan acct. I can help people get items. Feel free to inquire for details. I'm very upfront. I can even provide eBay and Yahoo Auctions scores/comments as proof of my accountability.

But only the serious need apply.

Best regards,
Brent

I just became a semi-owner of a Japanese PS2, two weeks ago (a friend went to university and couldn't take it with him) so I'll keep this in mind. I'm particularly interested in Japan-only Goichi Suda and Nana-On-Sha games.

When Kojima and Suda talked before, Kojima said the only outside games he played in 1996 were Bio Hazard and Twilight Syndrome: Investigation (Twilight Syndrome: Tansakuhen).

So I'll choose to get that one first then? :) I've already got both PS2 and GameCube European versions of killer7 and the European Michigan (which I kind of left alone after 20 minutes of not enjoying it, but I'll go back to it later).

I'm still trying to find any information I can for the game Surveillance, released for the PS2. It was created by Production IG, and from what I've seen, it features some very nice animation. It appears to be a Policenauts style game, but I can find nothing on exactly how you play it, how good it is, or what it's about. I don't know that I'm willing to spend $60 importing a game I know so little about.

I've played Ghost in the Shell: Stand-Alone Complex for the PS2 and that, too, was Production IG. It was really awesome and kind of different in that it was a mix of gameplay styles. It would've been a really great game, though, if a little more effort was put into the enemy A.I. Boy, it is stupid. They do tend to put excellent kojima-esque focus on controls/graphics, so it's almost good. That's all I know about their game style. Haven't heard of this game, though.

I can vouch for Made in DNA if anyone's thinking of going through him. He helped me get the monitor and mouse for my PC98.

Any chance you can get your hands on a PSX copy of Policenauts?

I use rinkya.com for importing stuff off of Yahoo Japan auction. It's legit and works fairly well.
