-On the preorder note, how reliable are the shipping methods from Play-Asia? I've sucsessfully ordered from them before, but I can't seem to remember what I did for shipping. I think I did EMS, but I ordered several items, and the cost was less than 10% of my order. If I do EMS here, my order price goes up by almost a third. Any advice? I guess I may go with EMS or UPS anyway, but some help would be appreciated. |
I usually just get UPS shipping form them. It gets it to me the fastest and I figure that it's worth it (Having it in my hands in 3 days rather then waiting for up to 10 days)... _________________

UPS is the best as it's a much more centralized method of shipping.
A UPS man picks it up, takes it on a UPS truck to a UPS hub, where it gets on a UPS plane to a UPS station at an airport, hops on a UPS truck to a UPS distribution center, and then on another UPS truck to your house. _________________

I know it's been ages since I've been here (full-time work and all), and I've mentioned this on a couple of other boards anyway, but I just want to reiterate, for the record...
Sweet. This rocks. I'm stoked as hell that this has finally become a reality.
You know, I don't understand it. IIDX is supposed to be the big game in town. The very definition of Bemani (well, now that 5-Key has come and gone, anyway). And 6th Style does nothing but struggle. Honestly, I've lived through the complete SNK ownership/bankruptcy boondoggle and the demise of the Dreamcast, and this is tougher to explain than both of them put together.
Anyway, thanks to everyone who, no matter how bleak it looked, never, ever gave up, and did everything that was asked of them, and kept the faith until the very end. Sometimes miracles do happen. |

I live in Hawaii, so I'm clear.
Made the order through play-asia, BTW. (Himeya's a fine site, ordered lots of great stuff through them, but I just can't justify that price.) Heard that they were highly reliable. Guess I'll find out. |

I cant wait for this one. I've been getting a bored with IIDX, and maybe this mix can get me back into the IIDX mix. I jusy hope it has songs easy enough for a 3/4 star player like me, since the only home style I have is 3rd. _________________

IIDX 7th style is going to be made, but there are only going to be enough copies made for the preorders put in before the official release date of May 13th. So if you haven't preoredered it by then, it's doubtful you'll get a copy. My advice, preorder from http://shop.himeya.com/products/ps2_ag/ps2_a_g.html . It may be more expensive than play asia, but Himeya knows what they're doing and they're doing it right. Unlike play asia which is messed up with their distributors and what-not.

incorrect, they only charge if and when the game does ship if it's on pre-order. Since 7th style is in production, they charge on May 13 once the game begins shipping.

Ummm...no. Himeya charges as soon as you say submit order (if you still think I'm wrong, pre-order something and then check your Credit Card statement). They REFUND if the game is not made, but since it is going to be made, all is good. |

Until what date can we keep putting in preorders? I'm going to be in Japan after March 12; can I just preorder it when I get there? |
