River City Ransom EX [rarity]

[Jibbajaba]

Has anyone had trouble finding this game? I had to go to 5 stores, all major chains, before I found a copy. The guy at ebgames told me that they were only shipped 3 copies. I'm glad that I was able to find one. I have a feeling that this game is going to end up being really rare later on.

My EB had 2 copies. I just had a thread yesterday about it.

Your thread was about the gameplay, not about the rarity.

Like pretty much all Atlus games, this one seems like it had a pretty small print run. I was looking for Double Dragon EX myself, and ordered it from TRU.com because none of the Gamestops around here carried it - one guy told me it was "discontinued," while Gamestop's website told me it was coming out on 6/15/04. Screwy.

Get Atlus games right when they come out, 'cause they vanish fast. I even picked up an extra copy of Tactics Ogre: The Knight of Lodis for GBA just because I knew it would be great trade fodder on gametz.com (or elsewhere) later.

Yeah, it is indeed hard to find atlus games even when they've just been released. The place that I find them the easiest is at Toys 'R Us. Yep for some reason, that place seems to the easiest for me to find atlus games. Double Dragon, Tactics Ogre, Shining Soul, ect. Check in with them if you're having trouble finding RCR.

Atlus' Website has everything on sale still... older stuff at a higher price though like Cubivore and Tactics Ogre: KoL. I ordered Cubivore the other day.

They do have Trap Gunner for PSX though... I highly recomend that game.

I highly second that recommendation. A truly unique and wonderful game. Also, I think when you haven't even given a game a week on the shelves it's a little too soon to be discussing rarity, although the general consensus, which I can't argue with, is that Atlus games become pretty scarce.
