Welcome to last Tuesday.

Do you like it here?

Also: this sucks for a whole lot more people than just gamers who want their latest Japanese Dating Sim. One of my friends owns an independent games store, and he was able to steal a lot of customers from our local EB by ordering games from Lik-Sang and having them on the shelf before they were released over here. And profiting, too; he's been selling Pokemon Diamond/Pearl for AU$100 a piece, and that's the Japanese language version.

With Lik-Sang gone, it makes it harder for him to stand out from EB. Not to mention the countries in the world where Sony haven't 'officially' launched the PS2 or PSP (like South Africa) that rely on importers in order to obtain products.

i have very few sources for importing stuff. one of them was lik-sang. though i don't do very much if any ordering, it worries me if i end up with no places cause maybe one day i'd like an import. >.<

anyway, thsi is all stupid Sony EUROPE'S fault. they such pansie ass fucktards that need to get raped. i remember hearing about them last time for some other reason. (prolly same reason) Europe is fucking gay.

Yeah, he just switched to them. I actually just found them the other day too... and realised they're 10 million times better than lik-sang. And the awesome news that most X360 games are region free, which means I can buy them from here for $60 as apposed to $110.

Unfortunately, he used to get a really good partnership price with Lik-Sang; he doesn't make as much as a proift off Play-Asia stuff. Which means he'll have to raise his instore prices.
