fzero arcade card wanted

[kotatsuneko]

they ran out in sapporo and had no joy @ either of the sega arcades in aki..

i`m pretty sure they would run at 500 en , the standard sega price.

after a new card, as the machines are just hitting the uk now..

i can pay via paypal or bung hard en in the post ^^

dont know how many of the crowd here go to the arcades but thought it was worth a try..

cheers...

Dont you know I am an arcade-a-holic. The card can be bought in the actualy machien. It costs 100 yen. Also it supports the Game Cube memorary card. But you need to have an FX file on it from the game.

Do you want me to make you a card? Like what name you want on it.

The only thing is i hate going to the postoffice in Japan lol.


My paypal account is fucked. Since I became a gaijin.


In return you could do a similar favour from me in the uk.

duuude!

man that would be suweet!

man 100 yen! in sapporo vf4 evo cards went at 500!

i`ll have to check what name i`m using on my cart..

oh man this would be soo nice of ya if you had the time...!

sure i could return the favour naturally!

btw if you like shooters, gamers in aki is selling shikagami no shiro evolution for the x box at 2000 en! kinda got a soft spot for that as it was the first arcade game i played in japan and swiftly picked that up!

lots of bargains in aki really, given the patience to find em.. donkey konga with bongos for 4000 @ sofmap near the bridge anyone? heh owned!

know what you mean bout the post office tho.. i always preferred the local ones to the majors..

thanks so much for the kind offer btw!

if you still have the time for this, could you register the name as:

kots=^^=

that`d be sweet! and if you wouldnt mind an unregistered card too? one for using one for collecting..

if you`d like anything from the uk just lmk! thanks Neo!

Update. Well this weekend I went to the arcades. Yes you can still get thoes cards in SOME places. They are getting fewier. Anyway. The card its self costs 100 but you have to play one round of a game. (200) I will take a picture of my card and post it here tonight just to make sure it is the kind of card you are looking for.

Since I have to play the game and it records if you are shit or a good player. Do you want me to fail, or get a medal on the round I have to play. If I beat a level it stamps an award on the front of the card. Making it also look like it has been used.

ooh! cheers !

thats a weird arcade then, usually you can just buy the card whether you play it or not, least on every arcade i`ve been to in sapporo/aki..

isnt it possible to just buy the card and not play? i mean, or even not put the card in the machine?

i didnt see a full size version of the ax, only the regular versions in sapporo/aki and they just had the card machines next to the machine..

anyhow, if possible, either please dont put the card in the machine or a "lost" game, no medal would be very nice of ya indeed!

and like i say, i`d of course sort something you`d like from the uk ^^

thanks a lot ! hope youre keeping up with the excellent Arcadia mag also, good source of info, that..

i was lucky to snag an fzero snes rubber in a gachapon also sweet ^^

I just got F-Zero GX this weekend. Traded two games and got the price knocked down to 10,000 won! (less than 1,000 yen) It's in Japanese, and I had to plug in the Action Replay code to get the menus to display, but it's all good. I can see I'll be spending a fair bit of time with it.

I do have one question about the menu options though. I've found a site that has a lot of them translated, but not the post-race menu in Grand Prix mode. I know the first option is "continue" and the last one is "quit," but don't know the other two. Any help?
