    Default Ginga Fukei Densetsu Sapphire

    Okay I'm looking for someone who actually has this. I just have a few questions:

    1. Honestly, what's my best option on getting a copy? How much $$$ do I need to put aside? I don't see it on play-asia or ebay anymore.

    2. What does the title translate to? Is it Legendary Police Woman Sapphire?

    3. Replay value? Good?

    Are you looking for the "reprint crap" or the original? Really not much of a difference and hard to tell the difference unless you know what to look for. The original, expect to spend between $275 and $375. The "reprint"? under $100.

    Not sure what it translates to.

    it is a fantastic game, fun game. Replay value? It has just as much replay value as any other shooter. One of those games you can pick up and play for fun at any time. Obviously not a "beat it once, stash it away" kind of game. There are better shooters out there, though, if you are trying to get the "best" shooters. Great fun game with replay value, but not the most bang for your buck.

    A bought a reprint version from this guy several months ago. If you don't know what to look for it's just as good as the real thing. I mean it even comes with a registration card for crying out loud. But if you want to know the differences, here's a page that goes into great detail.

    I'm perfectly fine with having the reprint version as I just wanted to play it and not lay out a ton of cash. As long as people aren't trying to pass these off as legit on eBay (as they once were) I don't have a problem with them. It's a great game and well worth the money for the reprint in my opinion.

    I had a copy of this for ages. I gave it an honest shot last year, and hated it. It's pretty, but clunky, at best. It plays like a turd. There are far better games on the system (any of the Compile shooters, for starters). I'm not afraid to spend money on games that warrant it. This one, simply doesn't though.

    Don't bother translating titles... it never works right. But "fukei" would best be called a female police force or something.
