Created by the legendary development studio Treasure, this is a game that hard-core gamers and fans of Japanese imports recognize as one of the finest Nintendo 64 titles to have never previously reached North American shores. Its unique combination of English voice-overs with Japanese subtitles (preserved in this version) has only added to the enthusiasm for its eventual release here. Experience the frenetic pace of a classic shooter, while choosing from a variety of options and a number of different skill levels until you are ready to take on the full-blown challenge of Turbo Hard mode. Not to be outdone by the action, however, the intriguing story line gives the game its soul and draws you even further into the mix. Set in the near future, on an overpopulated Earth starved for resources, players uncover the intriguing mystery of two teenagers (Saki and Airan) and their battle against the Ruffians as they advance through level after level of nonstop action. Take a deep breath, gather your energy and prepare to see why this game is so highly praised.

1200 Wii points? you gotta be kidding I mean usually Nintendo64 titles usually cost 1000 wii points? But 1200 for this is crazy I mean this is a game I wouldn’t download.
They had to go through all of the trouble to localize this game for us. I’d pay an extra $2 for the time they spent translating this title. I just have to figure out if it’ll be a game I’ll like.
$2 seems perfectly reasonable for the extra time they took to translate that Japanese N64 title. The extra cash for Mario though… not so sure. It was already done for Mario All-stars, nes pas?
I agree with Jordan completely about both of the games. I was hoping that Nintendo would just release All-Stars, but I figured why would they release several games in one when they could just split them all up and make more money.
Hopefully we wont see this trend in pricing except on the rare case. Oh and don’t forget this isn’t the first time it has happened, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was price at $6 quite a while back.
Buy this now it is worth it!
As far as I can tell, the price increase will be for imports only. I don’t see what everyone’s problem is with paying an extra $2 for games you can’t normally get outside of Japan.
