I never wanted something more in my life, but no matter what squiggly I click on I can't seem to order.

Is there anyone I can paypal + a bit of a fee for there effort for this set?

I like this game and all, but that seems kind of like some ridiculous overkill there.

Is the PS3 region locked? If not then this seems like a decent buy compared to the Saturn release as far as the bang versus buck ratio goes. If you are going to have to jump through a lot of hoops though to play this set then I wouldn't bother at that price.

It's a shame it's physical release is JP only.Still,capcom pulled the same stunt with darkstalkers so it's no surprise there.I may have to look into importing this version of D&D.

That thing's going to cost at least $130, even with the exchange rate massively improving lately. The standard version is about 1/3 the price. I usually only buy LEs, but that just looks like a big box of junk. I mean, coasters? Coasters? Come on... And how awesome is the soundtrack to this game? Not that awesome, IIRC.

I think someone at Capcom's been consulting Vic Ireland for ideas.

If I understand it correctly the game will play, but the online part of it may not. Agreed on the Saturn comparison. The prices on that one go from the $130's to the $200's on ebay.

From my albeit limited understanding of Japanese, looks like this one is just Shadow Over Mystara, as far as what game is included. Now, knowing Capcom, the other one could be an unlockable.

I remember playing the first game in the arcade with my little bro. I'd love the chance to try this one again!

Wow, that does look just amazing.  I'm guessing odds of a US release are non-existant?

The Saturn release is what like, 70+$ now anyway.  For an extra 60ish bucks you can get the game for a system you can play on an HD TV easily, and you get a ton of extra crap.


It looks neat because of all the collectible stuff you get with it.    The arcade flyers/posters make it a pretty decent deal.


Also, the PS3 isn't region locked.  I play European and Japanese games on it all the time.

Y'know, I might just hop on the used PS3 boom that's about to happen when the PS4 comes out and pick this thing up!

It won't just like with darkstalkers it will be a digital release for the u.s.

Yeah, in regards to ordering is there any way besides the play asia link?  I can't find this on Amazon through preorder, or is this only available through the capcom e-store?

That is what I would consider a bargain. Cheaper then the Saturn ports currently go for.

I have only played this in the arcade and not for years.

Does anyone know if there is a language barrier?  My recollection is no, but I just want to be sure.

Its an arcade beat em up.   The text is mostly irrelevant.  You just won't know what's going on with the engaging storyline.

Not really and ive played the sega saturn port many times.The most you miss out on is the story,other then guessing on the paths to choose.

According to Nintendo's E3 Nintendo Direct, this game is coming out on the Wii U's eShop as "Dungeons and Dragons Chronicles of Mystara" :D

Everyone is getting it, this special Ed is, as far as I know, PS3 only.  But it does not include both games...but I think one can do  a DLC from this SP edition.
