    Well, To Heart was one of the definitive games in the genre. And, more cynically, sex sells. Even so, I happened to like the anime based off the first game, and Leaf is supposed to be one of the more important companies in the ren'ai genre.

    Saw this on Siliconera a while ago. Microsoft spent more money advertising the system in Japan, than it gained out of selling it. The situation is laughable.

    Akihabara.

    I just can't leave well enough alone. It doesn't look like it's available on the few sites I know (Amazon, J-List), and I don't have enough knowledge of Japanese to navigate through the main page...I guess Akihabara is my best guess.

    I didn't want it really. I'd much rather have my 360, those Japanese are so crazy.

    Entirely besides the point. Granted, I'd like almost anything not actively bad more than a 360, myself, though resale may not be a bad idea. I'm just not interested in anything Microsoft's brought to the console industry with either generation so far.

    Yeah, most people who havn't got one says that.

    The main reason I got into the Xbox was becasue of Jet Set radio Future and Shenmue II... and they're Segas brain child. Games like Project gothem racing were just a dissapionting rip-off from the great Metroplis street racer.

    Other way around for reasoning, and I've never heard of those games.

    Well, I've heard of Shenmue, but nothing too interesting.

    Hint to Microsoft: Make sure you release the Xbox 720 or whatever in Japan with a hentai game as a launch title. Instant win am i rite?

    Fixed. I'd buy one.
    *PSA* Wii Redump collector's can now unscrub ISO files. So scrubbed games can now be verified. You can find the program to do this here
