    Default Rakugaki Showtime!

    Anyone have it? Anyone played it? Apparently, a friend is giving me a copy as a gift...says I NEED to play it. The only review I could find was fairly negative but it sounded like a neat game. Any thoughts? It's one of the only Treasure games I've never played.

    one of the finest out of treasure...
    also one of the rarest - much rarer than RGS and cost more accordingly...

    It's a fun game but you do need to have friends who know how to play the game (not hard). It's a shame it became so rare, hard to find worthy opponents to play against.

    That's like a $150 present...NICE. That's what a copy sold on eBay for days ago.

    The review I read of it was negative, but I won't share any of that. I'd like to see what you think, because I also haven't played it.

    Even with no spine it's worth that? Dayum. I didn't know it was THAT rare! *dances a happy dance* I've been wanting it but I hadn't looked into it. I'm not gonna be complaining to the gaming gods anytime soon!

    max, you'll LOOOOOOVE it. i got mine about 3 years ago or so (cost me $85 new), and it's pretty amazing. i remember seeing a tiny toons ps2 game from treasure some years back that used the same play mechanics, but i think it got canned...

    The Tiny Toons PS2 (?) game has been put on indefinite hold, it seems. There was another (GBA I think?) that was released, though.

    WOW I wish I had friends like that but still yeah the game does kick mighty ass think poy poy, with chalk graphics and super moves. very fun needless to say you're going to be in for a treat...and if you don't like it can I buy it off of you?
