I think being able to edit posts is essential for any message board. Deleting them just leads to confusion.

I thought Smash was released later in October...

Shows what I know. I've been too wrapped up in Dangan Ronpa 2. XD

Early thoughts on DanganRonpa 1 compared to/vs. DanganRonpa 2?

Me?!

*Grumbles crankily* Starting on 10/25, in addition to turning another year older, I'll also be receiving a B-Day gift of a PSTV -AND- I'm very happy now that I've held off on playing ALL ("all" only = 15, or so) of my Vita games in the hopes of playing them on a big, HD screen & with a PS3 and/or a PS4 controller because...almost each & every one of them as been confirmed as being compatible w/ the PSTV  ;D

btw - What's the consensus here on how important & necessary it is to play 999 before playing VLR: Zero Escape?

While I'm psyched that I can & will be playing VLR: Zero Escape through my PSTV...using my handheld systems are strictly "last" and "only" resort for me, as they're not at all conveniently, ergonomically, or comfortably-designed and/or configured with one-handed gamers in mind  :-\

2 more random questions -

1). Can any of you tell me what "batik" is/means?

2). Anyone here play "Theresia" on the DS?  If so, how is it & what's its story/what's it about?

The review is up for DR2. It did some things better and some things worse, but all in all it was a fun game that I recommend to anyone. Also you must -MUST- play 999 before VLR, preferably in quick succession. Otherwise, VLR will not have as much meaning for you.

Now I need to decide on what to play next. I'm leaning towards Ar nosurge or Suikoden II. I have until the end of November before Tales of Hearts comes out for the Vita.

Have you ever played S2 before?  If not, then I wholeheartedly recommend you play it ASAP!  ;D

Seconded. It's really an awesome game.

Hahaha!

I can admit when I'm outclassed  ;D

Then again, that's kind of a shallow 'victory' since it doesn't take much class at all to have more than I do  :P

Attention Amazon Shoppers!!!

(Assuming that there's been no sales and/or changes between when I checked and when you do) =

- Are you interested in/looking for the PS3 Tales of Symphonia "cube" LE?

If so, step right in & Walk this Way!

- We have a good number of used -but- complete + in mint condition options for you to consider & choose from,

- *However*, should you care to save a bit of your hard(ly)-earned money...why, we have the identical item (true - in the interest of fair & full disclosure), we must be up-front in disclosing the fact that - should you decide to save some cash & elect to purchase our more inexpensive version...instead of receiving one of our complete + in mint condition LE's, you will instead need to be willing to accept & settle for one of our brand new & still factory-sealed ones  :o

Fackin' gamers, sellers, and resellers today; eh?

PT Barnum underestimated our race when he said "minute" instead of "second"  :'(

So, I think that I've now watched about the first 2/3 of season #1 of "Orange is the New Black".

Anyone else here seen, liked, disliked, and/or have any thoughts or opinions on it...good or bad?

From what I've seen so far, I'd put it at about a 6.5 out of 10.

(Depending on the person, their age, and how many of them they've already seen), add and/or subtract a point or so for being the 'pretty standard & generic, typical & done-to-death "Female/Lesbian & Bi Women in Prison" thing'.

Likewise, add and/or subtract a point or so depending on your like/dislike of a ton of gratuitous female & male, frontal & rear nudity + an..."obscene" amount of obscenity.

I'd add...most people would/should subtract for a lot of slang, terms, and jargon that will be alien, wasted, and just plain, old lost on those who haven't actually done any time themselves.

Finally, I'd add a point for the implementation of & the character's back-stories themselves...they're done & handled quite well, IMO.

Thanks, I've been curious about that show and I think you've told me enough to know it's probably not for me. :)

I watched both seasons.  I really liked the show.  After a while, I quit noticing all the nudity.  It's just part of the show.  In fact, most of the nudity is not nudity that you really want to see. 

I don't really know what I'd rate it, but 6.5 is too low for me.  8.5 maybe?  It's good stuff.

H.E.L.P.!   :-\

I just received a couple of items in the mail --and-- it's ALL Japanese to me  :'(

No...*Literally* Everything is printed in Japanese only!

I can, however, make out the bar code numbers; they are:

4 995506 022204

AND

4 995506 021931

If it's possible - can anyone here identify & add these items for me, so I can add em to my collection?

FWIW = you'll win my goodwill + I'll owe ya one  8)
