Nasuverse Eroge is OK...

[B.B. Rain]

More specifically, I was hoping I could get directions to a place online where I could legally, and reliably, buy copies of both Fate/Stay Night and Fate/Hollow Ataraxia for the holidays.

For, you know, less then $200.

Also, rather then make an additional topic, I was wondering if someone could point me to, or PM, english lyrics for the various songs, Shunji No Uzu, the second song off of White Avalon ReUniverse (disc 1), you know, any Fate/Stay Night song with lyrics.

 

[Souffle]

Pretty sure they're out of print.

[B.B. Rain]

Oh. Is there a reliable, non-overcharging used purveyor, then?

 

[Souffle]

Check out that phat edit!

 

[ttestagr]

Only one I found: <a href='http://www.jbox.com/PRODUCT/PCG0142' target='_blank' rel='nofollow'>http://www.jbox.com/PRODUCT/PCG0142</a>

The place I got mine isn't selling stuff right now because the yen isn't stable.

ps: Doesn't seem to still be available from above, and I can't find it at my usual suspects.

 

[B.B. Rain]

Huh. Well, ttestagr's site does have some interesting stuff, but I can't seem to find the actual game. Might just have to trawl through the search results for a few pages...

As for your phat edit, Souffle, ah...I can't read Japanese, and I don't have any kind of translation function or program. Got a reccomendation?

On a semi-related note, would there be any complications with purchasing on Amazon.co.jp with a U.S. credit card for a delivery to the U.S.?

 

[Souffle]

The amazon link is in stock, and iirc you can just use a credit card to order it. Shipping may take a while though.

 

[B.B. Rain]

It took me about ten minutes to notice what you mentioned. I may need to improve my Observation skills...

Thanks. It looks like smooth sailing from here on out.

EDIT: Happy holidays in advance.

 

[B.B. Rain]

Wait, no...

I finally dug up my credit card, and I noticed it says "Shipping: We're sorry; this item can not be shipped outside Japan."

Any way around this?

 

[Fatuous One]

No, there isn't. Amazon.jp won't ship adult material nor games outside of Japan. <a href='http://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/help/customer/display.html/ref=hp_rel_topic?ie=UTF8&nodeId=1039608' target='_blank' rel='nofollow'>Plus this other stuff</a>.

Try <a href='http://www.paletweb.com/' target='_blank' rel='nofollow'>Palet Mail Service</a>. It's very likely the closest you'll get to it that price range you're looking at. Imports costs are expensive, y'know.









On another note, Amazon.jp's shipping is excellent. I usually get my orders in 2-3 days after they ship them. And it should be, as it costs an arm and a leg (3000 yen for the initial order + 300 yen for every additional item).

 

[B.B. Rain]

Hm. Amazon.jp says Windows, but Palet says Windows JP. Would that actually be an issue? I'm running Windows 7 USA.

Also, I don't suppose I could order it addressed to a TFF member in Japan, then get it forwarded to me? Would that be legal?

 

[Fatuous One]

If you could find a member living in Japan willing to do it for you, go for it.

Window JP just means Windows in Japanese locale, which shouldn't be an issue if you're using the mirror moon patch.

 

[B.B. Rain]

I take it that means you're not willing (if I didn't mis-interpret your praise of Amazon.jp's shipping quality)?

As for the Windows thing, good to know.

 

[Fatuous One]

Uh, well, I don't live in Japan. I was talking about their international shipping. I periodically buy magazines and manga from them, which aren't restricted. I was responding to Souffle's point on an order probably taking a while, which wouldn't be the case.

 

[B.B. Rain]

Hence why I said "if I didn't misinterpret."

Oh, well. Know any TFF-er I should ask?
