Just got notification that my copy has been shipped! Great news, right? No. Taking a company trip on Wendesday night. Won't be back until Sunday... http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif Have fun w/o me.

EDIT: Looks like others are getting theirs shipped out as well. I've always wondered how HK distributors get there's the same day as Japanese ones. Shocking. Oh, well. It will be an anxious flight back to the island.

It's not really a site. Just a small Japanese shop that accepts my Japan Net Bank account. No English pages, or support. :/

If you're feeling daring:
M-Matching (http://shop.m-matching.jp/index.php)

They are actually quite nice. After ordering Okami, they emailed me a few weeks later and asked if I was enjoying it, as it was so Japanese-intensive.

For those of you who have orders with Play-Asia, your orders should have been shipped by now. When you get it just depends on your shipping option (as if most of you didn't already pick express anyway).

The magic of Japan.

According to one person, several stores in Japan have released the game before the street date. I'm not certain exactly how importation sites work, though, so I don't know whether they can order their copies directly from SEGA and resell them before the street date or purchase them from certain other retailers. I would say the former, however, given the way this is working out.

EDIT: Also, I noticed the following on Play-Asia:


Release Date Aug 29, 2006

It's been August 29th in Japan since yesterday, right? Did Play-Asia get misinformed about the release date? I highly doubt it, but it's yet another theory.

i live in tokyo and all signs are pointing at 8/31, i haven't heard anything about an 8/29 (right now its almost 9:00pm) release at all. Anyways my reserve ticket shows that I can pick it up on the 31st

Shops usually get their copies of the game a couple of days before the release date and are told to hold them untill then. I usually buy my games at a shop which does not abide by the release dates and just sells the damn things as soon as they're in^^.

Hey now, be cool: stay in school.

I'm wondering when the first reviews of people who have received their copies, start trickling in on these boards. Can't wait.

I dont know japanese at all, apart from shouting random things while playing Ouendan. I just have to learn how the menus work..

After taking Inazuma's invite to the free trial of JP PSO:BB just to see what it'd be like, all I have to say is this. If you can read Katakana well, you're well on your way. And I must say, it's very good practice http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

I ordered my copy of the PC version from Play-Asia.com as well and it shipped today, too. Fortunately, I opted for EMS, so I should have it sometime this week more than likely.

Play Asia's shipping to Hawaii just flat out sucks balls. I have to order EMS or I get my items 2-3 weeks later. Again, mine will likely arrive on Thursday afternoon, but I will be in Vegas, pissing away money.

For people who are ordering the Japanese version: Do you guys know Japanese or can the language be changed to English? Also are you going to be playing on Japanese servers? Are you able to switch your character to US servers when the game comes out here? Are you going to switch to US servers when the game comes out here?

Company trip. Everything paid for (except for the gambling). Should be a hoot. In all honesty, I'm not nearly as psyched for PSU as I thought I'd be.
