Cu-On-Pa (Playstation 1)

Take a cube with colored faces, levitate ten miles above the earth, then roll around on panels chaining lightning bolts for the highest score possible! Such a unique idea for an action puzzler, an original game from a lost generation!
The title creates meaning as cube-on-panel, an updated version to the Super Famicom's Cu-On-Pa SFC. All major gameplay is preserved and none should cry about it. Do yourself a favor and play them all!
Main object is to roll the cube around such that a panel matches the top color of cube. Easy huh? Now the panel is gone, but some stay as lightning bolts for later terror. Quick, roll over the trigger panel! Now all alike colors explode, and bolts too so make them count for gloating points. Compete!
Within too is a limited-move puzzle mode, VS cpu mode and of course endless mode to give your brain spasms and retreat mind decay. Very cool game, $6 on ebay.

GAMEPLAY: 9
More complex than Tetris, less so than sokoban.
GRAPHICS: 9
A truer 3D vision than the SFC version.
SOUND: 8
Tunes from chippy to groovy, all decent.
ENGLISH FRIENDLY: 8
Menus and tutorials in Jap. but a keen mind can deduce the meanings.
OVERALL: 9
Original idea, fluid gameplay, great with beer!

Bayou Billy and Werewolf: The Last Warrior for Famicom!

[slapdash]

Just got Desi Adda (Indian PSP game).

[FoxNtd]

Found the Japanese version of Buggy Heat for Dreamcast (CIB) at a game store. It was $9.99 on the label. Heavily doubting anyone would find it, realize it's an import, and be able to play it, I pointed this out to the clerk and offered $1.

Sold. :D

[Kyle15]

Evangelion 2nd Impression for the Sega Saturn.

$1.25 on eBay from a U.S. seller! :D

Parodius DA deluxe pack
Gunbird
Gekkamugentan torico

all in all, the only one i regret is gekkamugentan, and that's cause i realized it came out in the US :embarrassed:

[JimmyDean]

My most recent import is my Famicom. Sadly, that was 6 months ago.

My recent SFC imports!

The one in the top-left is the woman-abusing simulator, "Violinist of Hameln" (look it up sometime, you'll see)
The bottom-left one is "Pop'n Twinbee"
The top-right one is "Twinbee Rainbow Bell Adventure", a fun 2-player co-op game in the same mold as Rocket Knight Adventures/Sparkster!
The bottom-right one is "Gokujou Parodius"...really, who doesn't love Parodius?

Got these during the Playasia sale. Everything except SSFIV was discounted:

Mayflash arcade stick (PS2/PS3/PC)
EMS Topgun II (PS2/PS3/Xbox/PC)
XP Joybox (PS2)
Super Street Fighter IV Collector's Package (PS3)

[Smashed Brother]

Just got a copy of Beavis and Butthead for the PS1.

Nice! That's incredibly hard to find! Oh man, the first time I ever played that game (via emulator) and heard B&B's Japanese voices, I was rolling on the ground in tears! I still get random fits of laughter just thinking about it...

PC Engine + AV Booster + all hookups (not shown) + 3P multitap + 2 controllers (excellent because the eBay description only said one controller; it showed two, but I was pretty sure I would only get one due to the description...bonus!)
Benkei Gaiden (PCE)
Street Fighter II' (PCE)
Majuuou (SFC)

Unfortunately, the PCE is quite yellowed, and both it and the AV Booster are fairly dirty and have quite a lot of odd scuff marks. One of these days, I'll take the case off and subject at least the PC Engine case to a major scrubdown plus a Retr0Brite treatment. I'm a lot less concerned with the AV Booster.

Everything works beautifully though. :)

Just got Choaniki on Saturn. Man....If anyone knows of a more bazzar Jap. shooter please let me know because I HAVE to get it! (on: Sat, D.C., P.C.E. or M.D.) THANKS

[sylvestor]

THANKS I'll check it out. Can you give a weirdness overview?

[sylvestor]

OK......Im tracking that one down for my collection!

[Parodius Duh!]

THANKS I'll check it out. Can you give a weirdness overview?

Basically these kids get sucked into a toilet, and then it becomes an overhead shooter with such enemies as golden terds, rolls of TP, pee everywhere....yeah, its awesome.

[todesengel]

Just got a copy of Street Fighter II' Champion Edition for PCE. Now just have to wait for my Duo-R to come back from being repaired so I can play it.

Hah! Well I don't really see NTSC-US games as imports either. I don't have any PAL games out of my 500 or whatever games. NTSC-US games is the standard for me, while NTSC-J games gets the "import"-honor!

[Kyle15]

A complete copy of Captain Rainbow for the Wii came in yesterday courtesy of a US seller on eBay. Nobody else placed a bid, and I won it for $9.99! :D

Hori Fighting Commander PC [as in PC Engine] - I already own and love the SFC Fighting Commander, so I felt safe with this for SFII'. A previous owner modded it, one might say, by cutting down the turbo switches for IV and V to be just about level with the controller face. Sure, it's not mint, but I actually rather like this mod, as it's really easy to flip the leftmost switches by accident on the stock controller. I remedied this on my SFC pad by simply taking out all of the switches and replacing them with some strips of black rubber I cut down. But this mod fixes the issue AND leaves all switches usable. :)
Final Fantasy XIII - after hearing specifics about the gameplay, I was not too excited about this one, but I got a deal on a used copy ($20-ish), so we'll see how it goes.
Akutagawa Ryuunosuke volume of Nihon Kindai Bungaku Taikei - yeah, it's not gaming related, but it is an import, so what the heck. :P

[PSony]

Capcom Retro Game Collection Vol. 5 - Cool little hardcover book with the game disc on the last page. A re-release of Capcom Generation Vol. 5

Dracula X needs no introduction here. It's complete except for the obi strip, but I'm not really big on those anyways. I made a best offer of $76 on ebay and it was accepted. This is my first game for my new Duo-R, as well as a personal grail for me.

The SFC game is Umihara Kawase. It's a unique platformer where you control this little girl who wields this strange fishing line-like grappling hook. You use this hook to make it to the exit in some really abstract levels in the shortest amount of time possible. The game also employs a very realistic physics engine and the level design takes advantage of this mechanic. Very cool game! I got this for $49 off of ebay because nobody else bid on it.

I don't mean to pry, but who did you get Umihara Kawase from? They've probably got some other great deals too! Seriously, your picture and price is making me drool...

Anyway, I got a complete copy of Silent Hill 2 in Japanese for $9.99 on eBay last week. Nobody else placed a bid and it was mine! Even though I've got the English releases already, I can't pass up the cooler package art. Getting the whole series in Japanese is a little goal of mine.

I just got this in the mail and couldn't wait to post some pictures!

http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i168/kyle152006/SakuraTaisenLEBox.jpg

This is the very first Sakura Taisen limited edition. It comes with a set of decals, Saturn mouse, and mouse pad. There is an "A" and "B" version of this set. The only difference is what picture you get on the pad, but the decals may be different too.

The game case had a cool poster inside that doubles as a map. I'm pretty sure it came with every copy regardless, so I'm not counting that as a bonus just yet. Pretty cool either way.

http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i168/kyle152006/SakuraTaisenLEunboxed.jpg

Found Dragonball: Final Bout for the PS1, Japanese version, for $4.94 in a thrift store this afternoon. For some reason, I've started having pretty good luck in finding imports in thrift stores and flea markets in the past year or two.

[Zama]

I recently brought a game called Bakuretsu Muteki Bangai-O for the Nintendo 64. Once the converter I ordered from play-asia comes in the mail, I'm going to give it a go. :D

Wow, how much did you pay? I lucked out a couple of years ago and got the Dreamcast version for $2.99 at Salvation Army. Needless to say, it was well worth the price tag.

You've got a great Treasure gem there and I hope you enjoy it through and through. :)

Aww thanks, I totally will! I paid about $55 dollars for it at my local flea market. ^^ It included the game, manual, cart holder, and the box. ^^ I did some research online and learned that about 10,000 copies were made and sold only in Japan so I felt lucky that I was fortunate enough to brought it while it still exist out there. :angel:

Nope, I never played Sin and Punishment before but I have read about it during my research on Bangai-O. I also have read of good things about Sin and Punishment and that it was a masterpiece on the N64 with a comfortable control interface. I might look into securing a copy in the near future! :wink 2:

I highly suggest doing so. The soon to be released sequel may cause a small price-spike for physical copies. Also, you should play stuff like this in order! ;)

Excellent find. $55 local is a great price to be sure, especially complete in the condition you presented it as.

It's quite a bit different from the Dreamcast game and personally it's worth owning on 64 for that distinction. Had an N64 myself, I'd probably own this too. Enjoy it.

Yup. It's currently the only N64 game I own. :) The scoring is a lot closer to the Nintendo DS game. I actually think its the superior version between the DC and N64.

My recent import is a complete copy of Tenjin Oyasen 2. Wouldn't be surprised if no one has heard of it. Its prequel was Mercenary Force in the US. We never got the sequel.

Not sure how it is. Haven't had the time to play a bit.

Thanks! I have read that the Dreamcast version have a few gameplay changes and clearer visuals while the N64 version have a better controller style and kept the original gameplay like upgrades so it's debatable which of the two is better than the other. xD
