Anyone picking up chulip in Jan 05

[spider-man]

I preordered at the store (the online store took it off, and natsume acts like they have nothing to do with this game, even though they are releasing it here in the states), so hopefully it will still come out. For those that say there's no originality in the video game industry, here's your game!

is'n that the KISSING rpg game :kiss: LOL LOL
they should release it in feb/2005 :hmm:

[brykasch]

Well I for one am getting it. For one its butt cheap. and two its got that quirky @#%$ that I love about japanese gaming. Already pre-ordered. I have a commercial of it on my hard drive if anyone is interested.

Where did you guys preorder?

[racecar]

Where did you guys preorder?
EBgames for me( i got $$$ store credit = no tax) :D

[spider-man]

When I went to preorder they said it should be in stores Jan 4-5 of 2005. Did they push it back?

[chocobokick]

It was supposed to be out for like 2 years now, at this point I'll believe it when it's in my hands

Too lazy to preorder, but you can bet your butt I'll be picking it up as soon as I can. I probably would've imported this game eventually (and paid a lot more than $15) had it not been brought over.

i think i will preorder on monday, have been thinking about it for sometime. and since Castle of Shikigami 2 (anyone want to sell or trade?) has been so hard to track down, i figure i might as well get it while i know i can

[Crush Crawfish]

Definitely buying it as soon as I can. Sure hope I can find it, though.

Does ANYONE have any new info on if this game is getting released? Gamestop + Ebgames have taken it off their sites, and Natsume has eliminated all mention of it from their site. I was able to preorder it a few days ago at my local EBgames, but I'm worried we aren't going to see a release.

[spider-man]

Hmmm, I went to eb the other day to check on my preorder status, and they couldn't find it in the system, even though I still had my preorder still in the system. The manager said that they should still get it in, but I"m having my doubts. Hopefully natsume didn't drop the title at the last instant :(

[spider-man]

Tommorrow seems to be the day (hopefully). I've been playing metal slug 3 (xbox) to pass the time. Great game, tough last level LOL

[SoulBlazer]

This was for PS2, right? I checked the list the manager at my local EB had today for upcoming PS2 games -- just printed 12/29 -- and not listed at all. :(

[shai hulud]

this doesnt look good, i talked to 2 game distros today (Jack of All Games and Video by Cycling) and neither had info on it.

[Aussie2B]

Yup, I'll second that. It doesn't look good at all. :( If anybody is successfully able to get a copy in the next few days, PLEASE post and let us know if it's really being released now or not.

[Promophile]

The EBgames I preordered it at is still stringing me along. It was supposed to have been released 1-2 days ago, and they don't have it, and they keep telling me to call tommorow. Crossing my fingers...

So, does anyone actually HAVE it??

[Promophile]

Just called Natsume.... very bad news. The game has been put on hold. No word yet as to if it will be released at all.

[Crush Crawfish]

Arrragh!!!! I sure hope they didn't cancel it permanently.

[spider-man]

damn. Thanks for the heads up though. I have a feeling if it does come out, it will be out of nowhere (ala castle shikigami 2). Unfortunately I have a feeling this will go the same route Rent a Hero No. 1 for the xbox went (in the US at least).

Just called Natsume.... very bad news. The game has been put on hold. No word yet as to if it will be released at all.

OH DAMMIT!

I went to EB today to ask about this to, they said it was supposed to come out yesterday and they may be getting it in later today or tommorow.

Guess not.

:(

[SoulBlazer]

Usually it's the stores that are always the last to be told. Good idea to call the company and ask them directly.

I trust the list that my EB has....I saw several games on there that I did'nt even know were coming out so soon, like Xenosaga 2 next month and FF XII in April.
