Title: Anyone know where I can import Viewtiful Joe for the US list price (39.99)?
Post by: TooShort on July 11, 2003, 02:46:16 PM
I would prefer to wait for a lower price than import at $60 US, but if I could import it at the the US price I would. So if anyone knows of a place please let me know, thanks.

... Viewtiful Joe costs like 6800 yen in Japan, which is about $60. So I doubt you'll find it for much cheaper. If you want to save money then importing isn't what you should be doing.

Plus they sold out and there arnt even enough to sell at $60 so why would the price be lower? Just wait for the US release. Also importing anything is usually more expensive, plus there is shipping to so I say wait.

I'm galad to see I'm not the only one who really wants this game. Only thing is I know that to make any import game work you have to mod your cube or buy the action repay disk. Thats 40$ right there and now the game costs 10$ extra. I guess i'll have to wait like everyone else for the game to come in October.

You actually can buy FreeLoader which is the same thing that Action Replay uses but in a separate package, it's only $20. That's what I did when I got Soul Calibur 2.
Thanks for the in-put guys.

USD60 for a GC game isn't too bad in my eyes, but I'm used to EUR60 games...

I would rather wait for the US release, since companies often tweak the games a bit when they release the US build based on feedback from Japanese gamers. Like the Interrupt Save feature in Majora's Mask. Since I've heard there are way too few Save Points in Viewtiful Joe, I'm hoping it's something they address for the US version.
