it's true... but then there's 3.20 shipping. So is this the same as the dreamcast version or is this Space Channel 5 part 2?

Decker 10-30-03 03:48 PM

Thanks. That's a cheap game. Too bad shipping's almost $4, but still a nice, nice deal

Stop! You're both right!
It's actually the DC game AND its sequel. It got a good review in the recent Gamepro.

FlashStash 10-30-03 03:54 PM

It's both...the game includes 2 discs, the origina which was released for the DC, and Part 2, which was only released for the Japanese DC. Placed my order, this is a great deal for the game even with shipping!

<s>The publisher on the site is wrong, it's being published by Agetec</s> apparently Tommo Inc. is another name for Agetec. Their games on the BB website say Tommo Inc but looking a the box says agetec. I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't honor the price upon release.

TheMadMonk 10-30-03 04:17 PM

Cool! I was hoping to pick this up for less than $20. Just hope they honor this price.

Trigger 10-30-03 04:23 PM

cool - thanks.

Decker 10-30-03 05:57 PM

Since this is one of those sites that charges you immediately for preorders, I would imagine they'd probably honor the price. It becomes a much bigger headache to issue a bunch of refunds than it is to just cancel a preorder without issuing a charge (like Amazon tends to do).

FlashStash 10-30-03 08:56 PM

I believe the regular price IS $20 for the release.

Actually, it's $29.99

Puzznic 10-30-03 10:27 PM

Thats an insanely good deal. And to think i was going to import the Dreamcast version of part 2 for over $50

Joshic 10-31-03 09:46 AM

I remember playing the original on a friend's Dreamcast. It was pretty fun. I like rhythm games. ~$12 including shipping & no tax for part 1 & 2 is a great deal. Thx for posting; I decided to get it.

Static Cling 10-31-03 11:46 AM

Got my pre-order in. Thanks!

jw2299 10-31-03 12:28 PM

Nice, ordered mine too. I always wanted to play this game, but I never got a DC.

GatorDeb 10-31-03 12:30 PM

I don't even know what this game is but I preordered it :)

mmconhea 10-31-03 01:22 PM

I'd hit it

Puzznic 10-31-03 10:08 PM

Alot of people are to closeminded to even give it a chance but if you give it a chance its a great game

Outlaw 10-31-03 11:36 PM

Space Channel 5 part 2 has gameplay that involves singing in addition to the up down left right chu chu chu!! or so I've heard :) Interesting game with some pretty swinging music ;), my only complaint is that the first game was super short, it could be beaten in little over an hour. Hopefully the second is a little longer.

young 11-20-03 10:15 AM

i just got email confirmation that this shipped... not even sure what kind of game this is (is it a dance/rhythm game?) but figured for that kind of price, it was worth the shot.

looks like it's scheduled for delivery today so i'll have it by tonight.

TheMadMonk 11-20-03 12:14 PM

Got my shipping notice today, too.

mmconhea 11-20-03 12:24 PM

shipped here too

illennium 11-20-03 01:52 PM

Anyone who missed this deal can get the game for $13.49 with free shipping at EBGames.com--just use code AFF10.

illennium 11-20-03 02:42 PM

By the way, I just received my copy from Buy.com. I didn't realize it was 2 discs. Great deal! If you missed out on the Buy.com deal, read my post above for how to get it for $13.49.
