[Popuri Adorer12]

Ooops, sorry.

[Myah-san]

Something to keep everyone interested while I work on the guide. Not complete yet and I haven't double checked everything (especially which girls you can marry, but it's pretty obvious so I should be okay there)

There are a couple people I missed (specifically the guy that comes once a week to sell makers)

Japanese name (kana) Japanese name (romanized) possible english name (name I plan on them going by inside the guide for my ease ^_^) and a short description of them.

Very cool. Mine's preordered. With any luck, it'll arrive a bit early. Any info you can give is really helpful.

[Myah-san]

I'd like to take a moment to thank Cher who (once I begged nicely enough) is giving me the bandwidth for my new guide (which should be up in a few days, I want something more meaningful in the guide before I use up bandwidth).

So anyone who reads/is going to read my guide make sure to thank her ^_^

Fishie: I must say of all the HM games out so far, this is probably the most import friendly. All of the menus are done with nice big pictures versus being mostly text based. It's easy to see what weapon does more damage, etc. The stats are all in english, all the stores use pictures for what you are purchasing.

The biggest difficulty for anyone that doesn't speak japanese is learning to pick which menu for which store. This is especially true in the general store which consists of 4 little stores. You talk to the guy and tell him what type of items you're interested in. But that shouldn't be a problem as I'll have all those written down for people to access.

Also with the guide I want to do a bit more in depth then I did my HM6 guide. Specifically for the caves. I already have monster and boss strategies down in my head, just need to write them down when I get to the appropriate sections ^_^

[Jacaranda]

Thank you Myah and Cher!

[Mindera]

I need that game and there seems to be many kinds of girls you can marry. hmmmm...I need it. So if it doesn't get translated, I will import it. Myah how much was it?

[Myah-san]

I believe the price was 4980 yen, not counting shipping. *goes to check conversion charts*

So that was approx 42.8891USD, plus shipping.... soo was probably around $55-60. Too lazy to check my bank account to see how much exactly. ^_^ I paid for fast shipping.

[Mindera]

Thank you Myah. It really helped. Is there a certain place you ordered it from?

[Myah-san]

That was weird... we must have just hit a roll back... My edits are gone as well has one and a half pages of posts to this thread~ Oh well... this gives me an excuse to release version .05 of the guide in a minute.

(edit) o_O Or not... it's letting me upload the guide, but it's not appearing in the directory like it's supposed to. Guess I'll have to wait to upload the next version when the servers more stable-rific.

(edit 2) The site is fixed, new version uploaded... enjoy.

I got a hold of a copy too, if you guys want some pictures I'll post them up upon request.

[Cherubae]

My copy is sitting on my desk at home. I'm waiting for my Ds Lite to charge

(I also got 2 free packages of pop rocks in my box, thanks play-asia )

Pop rocks!? All I got was a 10% off discount coupon with the last game I got from them *feels ripped off*

Dont worry, you can just go to the store and buy some.

I want rune factory now to bad it costs 50 bucks.

Hey, by the way the guide is kind of not very clear. I don't understand how to get the cave license. You just said

Get your cave licenses here.
You need to accomplish certain goals to
get them, and they are necessary to
explore the caves/runes.

[Cherubae]

They probably sent me the pop rocks because i spent over $200 importing a ds lite isn't cheap! I'm glad I got it before I had to leave for work today so I didn't have to play tag with the UPS man for days on end.

It's at home, hapily charging, next to my copy of RF. I've got my old Ds Brick w/ me now w/ my copies of hmds.
