Need help spending thirty bucks? OUENDAAAAAAN!

Import retailer Play-Asia's weekly specials are generally nice ways to get import games at good prices. This week's sale is extra-special, because the game is one close to our collective DS Fanboy heart. For the next six days or so, Play-Asia is selling Moero! Nekketsu Rhythm Damashii Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan 2 for a mere $29.90. We ordered a copy (as research for this post, of course) and shipping came out to just two dollars.

Normally, there's a period of intense waffling when we come across one of these sales. Do we go for the impulse purchase? Is an awesome deal worth disrupting our careful game budgeting? That is not how it went this time. This time we instinctively threw our wallets at the screen as soon as we saw the price.

Welcome to Europe!

I always have to wait for games anyone can buy in the USA or Japan in every store. I am glad Play-Asia exists and I only have to wait 3 weeks instead of sometimes half a year. Otherwise I would still have to wait for Contra and FFXII. ...and Trials and Tribulations, and MMZX Advent, and... and... ;-)

I ordered a game and screen protectors... and the airport retained them for a month for "suspicious looking"...

Anyway, it was just 2 weeks of shipment. =)

Thanks for the 411.

I guess this more than makes up for the Yoshi's Island incident.

Peace.
