Random Stuff for Feb. 20: PSP Get!, etc.

Hey, y’all! It’s been a month since I posted last. Miss me?…. orz. I’ve been tweeting rather than blogging since it requires less effort to write 120 characters (or less) than do a whole post. Can’t help being lazy (^^;; So, follow me on Twitter if you want to know what I’m up to these days (which ain’t that much).

Anyways, tax refund came in last week so I put it to use and finally got a PlayStation Portable — the Rachet & Clank bundle to be specific. Though I don’t really like Rachet & Clank, but whatever. Also picked up Star Ocean Second Evolution since I loved the original Star Ocean 2 (I own the soundtrack, too. Motoi Sakuraba fan). English voices are passable for the most part (though I would’ve liked an option to turn them off).

Speaking of Star Ocean, any of y’all planning to get Star Ocean 4 when it’s released in a few days? Too bad the NA release is English voices only… would’ve gotten it if it included the Japanese voices. Watching some playthroughs on Nico Nico Douga now — Miyuki Sawashiro as Lymle is great (don’t call her a Rozen Maiden).

Anyways, also ordered Idolmaster SP Wandering Star and Tales of Eternia (port of the PS1 game) from Yes Asia and should be getting them in a week or so. And if you thought that I got a PSP mostly for Idolmaster… you’re right (^^;;

And here are recent anime purchases — CLANNAD collection 1 and ARIA The NATURAL part 1. CLANNAD is very much a no-frills release compared to ARIA. Very good job with the extras, RightStuf. Interesting to note that CLANNAD is branded as a Sentai Filmworks release, not ADV Films.

And on the side, seeing Nagisa on the cover after recent eps of CLANNAD After Story… ・ﾟ・(つД｀)・ﾟ・

And that’s all the stuff I’ve gotten lately. I should cut down on the anime/game expenses a bit (^^;;

Already watched this week’s Shugo Chara! on Crunchyroll (impressions… Amu-chan kawaii yo Amu-chan…), so I guess I’ll get back to Star Ocean for a bit. Later, y’all.

Amu-chan is adorable. And that new PSP looks amazing, how’s the game for it going?

I need to buy Clannad =(

I haven’t played Star Ocean Second Evolution that much yet, so I’m not that far in. It’s been a while since I played the original PSX game so I can’t remember how to get certain characters or what to do next and such (^^;;

…and, I probably won’t get anywhere close to finishing it before Idolmaster comes in (^^;;

Haha, when’s Idolmaster coming out?

Kusion on February 21st, 2009

It was released on the 19th, and then promptly sold out at most stores. Wonder how many people got all 3 versions (^^;;

Oi! Let us know how iM@S SP is when you play it!

I *almost* got it, but chickened out at the last minute because the graphics didn’t seem half as attractive and it seemed like the minigames might not have been as fun as with other games.

However, if I missed out on something huge, I’d be interested to know. There’s just no way the games won’t be seeing a restock/rerelease eventually. ^^
