Metroid i supose has sold well considering it is a western game in japan aye.You don't get much more western than texas.

Yeee-har! Surprising to see it in there so high, yeah...

Impressive, maybe something to get before the Initial D impact?

Wow Metroid Prime sold like crap and it looks like Konami would be foolish to do another WE game on GC. Nice to see that Dragon Ball is still fondly remembered in Japan.

ZOE2 isn't doing too hot is it?

eva-01 nice avatar :wub:

Anyone snagged a copy of Kaido Battle yet?

back at ya :wub: :wub: :wub: :wub: :wub:

I’m tempted to get it, is this same people who bring us the Tokyo Highway Battle serie?

Yup. I downloaded a few movies of it from Gamespot Japan a few months back and it looked pretty cool, but I'm not sure how it stands up against the THB series. Anyone know if Famitsu have reviewed it yet?

Yes they have, and I found a new way to grab info inside the IGN insider service; "google":


Insider: Gaming Life in Japan

NCS writes:
Join a subculture of drift kings and race through mountain passes in Haruna, Nikko, Rokkou and Hakone. Drivers contend with twisting roads and contentious weather conditions in bids to roust road competition. Features include accurate engine emanations when struggling through a turn, asphalt track prints and camera tricks where rain pelts the lens during inclement weather.

Sounds like Initial D to me :lol:

that's the exact same scores they gave to touge-r on the x-box, a 'drift' racer by atlus/cave which oddly enough sounds exactly like kaido battle which sounds like initial D blah blah etc... it's been on my must have's list for a couple of months. when i get paid again i'll get it from ncsx and see how it plays.

Touge R, i'm even more confused now, i heard of a Togue peak battle for GC ages ago but never saw nothing about it.

Hmm, certainly a respectable score. I think I shall snag a copy from NCS once I'vemade space on my credit card.
