And in turn, that should make it so I can trade in my fat PS3 for credit at a local game store and use it to buy something rare and expensive.

Do tell... :twisted:

The place always has a rotating stock, with people constantly trading in old stuff and all. The PS3 would net me at least 100 bucks worth of credit. Not sure exactly what I'd use it on, but it'd likely be something on the SNES, Sega CD, or Saturn.
Oh, if only they would get something like Snatcher, Burning Rangers, or Panzer Dragoon Saga in stock. [-o<
Knocking off 100 bucks, I certainly wouldn't mind paying the difference.

Had the plain jewel case for many years but now I finally got it with the cardboard box.
Not easy to find, especially in this condition. Was a cheap buy though.

^^Always wanted to get into that series. Not sure why I still haven't. Maybe one of these days.
A bunch of JRPG westerns is just too good an idea to keep putting off forever.

I decided to start a collection of all my favourite games so of course there was no better place to start than with shenmue 2.

Very brilliant series indeed! We need more modern Jrpgs like this for the next gens systems. I need to pick up the rest of the games in the series.

I had to get rid of my Wild Arms collection 5 or so years ago, I had pristine copies of 1 and 2 for PSX, but I just never got into them, Also had 3 on PS2. I bet they are worth so much now, same as Tales of Destiny 2 for PSX, its worth a fortune now and i had a pristine copy of it... ah well. Maybe ill get them again some day.

Nah, Wild Arms is pretty easy to get a hold of. I've flirted with the idea of picking it up for years now, and the price for any of them (used) has never really gone much above 20-40 bucks, somewhere in that range. So don't lament too much, you can probably still get it for relatively cheap.

Every time I see that US cover art I instantly remember the ancient Shenmue Dojo main page post, I forget whether it was from Andy or Hellraiser, where it showed that artwork but with Ryo sporting a REALLY far out face. With the question "Is this to be the American Shenmue 2 box art? I Certainly hope not!" or something to that effect. Ryo's face was so outrageous and completely unlike anything I had seen in the games, the shenmue dojo post had been permanently ingrained into my nightmares.

Yeah he doesn't look much like the actual ryo lol though I like the boxart since it reminds me of old kung fu movie posters. Then again since shenmue 2x is the first shenmue games I owned and was free to play at my will I am incredibly biased about it.
