12 Style - Happy Sky CS Announced

Arka · Post by **Arka** » Wed Nov 01, 2006 9:07 pm

Just those three? I thought it was everything before 9th?

I picked up 3rd-8th as a unit on eBay, 9th and 11th at Play-Asia when they were moderately sale-priced, and 10th... I don't remember where or when I got 10th. But it's right here on my Bountiful Bookcase of Bemani Bliss, so I clearly got it at some point.

Anyway, when I checked out Play-Asia, I distinctly recall their not having anything before 9th listed as available. What gives?

Well, I just checked and 8th style is in stock at Play Asia. 7th and older isn't though unless it's pre-owned so be warned.

There's a place out in Hawaii called Toys and Joys that often manages to acquire copies of older Bemani, sometimes new old stock. Their prices aren't particularly good on anything you can buy from the more well known import sites (play asia, lik-sang before they closed, yesasia, etc.), but they often manage to find stuff, even if it's used.

There's no reason you should be paying their prices for most of this stuff, though - in particular, I see no reason to pay $60+ for the older Beatmania games when you can find them in mint or near-mint condition for $30-$40.

Toys'n'Joys is generally a last resort. None of the old IIDX games are THAT hard to find; just watch Bemanistyle and/or eBay for a week or so.

Riot, in case you're serious:
(1) American is not a language.
(2) Which game?

I'd guess since he has access to the other mixes and since this is the Happy Sky thread, he means Happy Sky.

True, their prices usually aren't good. I said that, in fact. It's a decent alternative for people who don't want to buy off random people they don't know on a forum and dislike ebay for one reason or another.

Personally? I'll stick with ebay and people I semi-somewhat know from forums.

Wow, out of that whole list (including returning songs) I recognized maybe 13 songs...

Fair enough. You did say that their prices are "not the best," I just felt compelled to quantify - it seems like a bit of an understatement for a 100% premium.

MonMotha wrote:Personally? I'll stick with ebay and people I semi-somewhat know from forums.
Wait, since when do you actually buy things from people on forums? I can't imagine that anyone from IndyDDR has ANYTHING in their Bemani collection you don't (save maybe Brian, who's special), much less anything they feel like selling, and while I guess it's conceivable for the BYOAC folks, there aren't very many Bemani specialists there.

That said, I stick with eBay and people I semi-somewhat know from forums, and I actually do actively buy this stuff. So I encourage the importers of tomorrow to try it, too.

We have 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th and I speak american.

Yeah, the forums were Not Quite Right In The Clock on Friday. The best part was, I couldn't post until 1:32 Saturday morning because... it was too soon after my last post!

I would be shocked - shocked - if MonMotha lacked any of those mixes.
