"Update:After contacting Sega, RPGamer has received assurances that a keyboard will in fact be available by the time the game launches. This should come as a relief for gamers who had been preparing to import from Japan."
Very awesome news.

Ahh bet hat up ^_^ I'm glad they are releasing one....I wonder how much it will cost?
X'D
When has Sega announced that they are releasing a keyboard? Last I heard they dropped out of the hardware biz altogether.
Anyone who believes that Sega can 'push' a 3rd party keyboard onto the market is sadly mistaken.
Update: My keyboard is coming tomorrow. The rest of you who don't have keyboards have what, 14 days?

Well......if they're on their way.....then it would be nice if they told Nintendo dealers (me) the news before a website got it. I've got paying customers that are very interested in the outcome. I DO know that the Mario Sunshine bundle is available!!!! That oughta be consolation enough!!! http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wink.gif

That long keyboard looks hard to handle but I think I can manage it.

That is so filled with sexual innuendo that I'm not even going to touch it.

*Snickers to himself* Yes... Yes it is. Soo, err... I'm too lazy to click that link. Will I be able to talk to peeps when I get PSO? Wait a sec... I prolly won't be online until Christmas. Ah, suck! >.<;;
I got the keyboard. It's okay. It's manageable to say the least, and better than an on-screen kb.
The C-stick feels like a big nippin' nipple.

Even if there's no keyboard released in time for the game, so what? I'm not paying $75+ for an import keyboard which has super tiny keys. Unless you're playing online already importing a keyboard now is stupid.

It's actually the same. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime2.gif

Uh. Okay. I respect your opinion. I'm guessing that you're one of those who follow the "have nothing nice to say so say nothing at all people." I however, am not bound to such silly rules. And as to importing now, well, I feel alot better having my keyboard on my shelf right now than on some retailers where it could be bought like that and I'd never get to see it. But, to each his own.
Oh, and the $81 I spent will definetly be worth telling Alisha to "Keep it legit baby" or DG "I'm gonna spank you with an axe one of these days" or Lady Mayhem to "Please! Stop the sexual harrasment!" or Cube to "Long Live the King of the recycling bin!" Taunting the bosses is gonna be mad fun too.

Spy, no offense but you've been bragging about your keyboard for days already and nobody cares. You don't seem to realize that there are a lot of people who find it sensible to wait and not pay for an $80+ keyboard. It's tiresome reading your "educated" post about your keyboard over and over again. Try giving people meaningful information instead of waving stuff in their faces. Or better yet, learn some manners.
As for the other posts above, here is some useful information. A release of a keyboard is obviously imminent. Most likely, SEGA and Nintendo are watching the pre-order numbers in order to save the cost of over manufacturing keyboards just like the way they over manufactured accessories on numerous occasions. This is a standard procedure in the industry, especially when a company is uncertain about something, that being PSO GC being Nintendo's first online game. Just be patient and save money.

I have a keyboard. You don't. Meet me on Pioneer 2 and type that to my characters face and maybe I'll respect your opinion. Until then have fun watching the headlines.

Maybe if you knock enough of your teeth out the toothfairy will put a shiney GC keyboard under your pillow. Maybe.

LOL, this is why they should charge a little more for online gaming. To keep shit talking kids off of it. What the hell are you? 14? Like I said, learn some manners or use more breath mints to keep that habit of yours under control.
Hopefully, they do seperate the buggy servers from the fixed servers so I don't have to run into idiots like Spy here.

Come on, settle down. The rules are no flaming and no flame baiting. If you're going to argue, have the courtesy to take it to pm's so you don't ruin the thread =

Dude. Get it right. I'm this many.
*holds up 11 fingers*
Awe. And what's up with the 4 letter words man? That kinda talk is reserved for people who are this many.
*Holds up 13 fingers*
And breathmints? No. My boyfriend likes the ashtray tase of my smokey mouth. And I'm not dropping the habbit seeing as how The Truth.com lies.

WTF are you talking about?

My apologies there, but at least I'm providing information and not adding more brags and useless garbage to it. I'm surprise nobody gets annoyed by Spy entering every keyboard thread and adding the same stuff to it.

I imported. Will have it today.
I sure hope they get the domestic one out soon though. Or Spy will be the only one I'll be able to talk with. That would kind of be like the time we shared a prison cell together...
Anyway, I don't mind shelling for the import. Gives me peace of mind.
