Is Skies Of Arcadia Hard To Find These Days?

BioMotor_Unitron · Jan 10, 2002

Just wondering, as my friend's store has new copies coming in on Friday.

I at the Moment its abit scarce but i belive in the future this will be worth big money and become one of the DC's rarest release's.....still not as good as Grandia 2 though IMO

it was fairly tough to come across when it was first released as well...stores would get limited copies in and sell out quickly. i'd have to say that it was one of the lesser produced games.

over here in england its quite hard to find.
shame really as i think its dc's best rpg and deserved better attention.

BioMotor_Unitron · Jan 10, 2002

I think I will pick up a few copies as trading swag. <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

No. Fry's (electronic store) has about 30 of them.

SNK4EVER · Jan 10, 2002

I snagged a new copy off ebay the other day for $20. Not bad considering I haven't been able to find it locally since it's release.

Yeah, that's one years ago.
What a stupid fuck

rarehero · Jan 10, 2002

i see it here and there locally.
but then again ps2 and the later systems
are the big sellers right now.
do you have skies bio?
definitely worth getting for yourself btw.
excellent game.
the only detractor is too many enemy encounters
in the air.
imo there shouldnt be any :P
flying around exploring is that fun <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">

Just to let you know, I'm still selling/trading that game (US) along with some other things. <IMG SRC="smilies/wink.gif" border="0"> Had a post about it in the selling forum a few days back.

Have you played it yet?

Get a copy of it! It is probably one of the best RPG on DC!

I have a US Version, too!

God, I couldn't STAND that game! I fail to see how it generated so much hype. The game might have been a little fun (concept was good) if it wasn't for the TEDIOUS BATTLES! I mean, damn, I don't think I've ever been so bored. Dragging through 15 minute ordeals every 5 steps gets old...FAST!

I miss the old days of RPGs, where one would whip in an out of battles in 10 seconds flat...

the_move · Jan 10, 2002

Maybe, but the ship-fights are very cool!

With either "Little Jack" or "Imperial Ship"

And I loved "exploring"! I got all Explorations!

Who gives a fuck if you have all versions?
Do you think you can jack up price like Metal Slug?

What a stupid fuck.

I have some NEW JPN limited box edition and it's a lot better than your sorry US version.

your LE set would be better if you actually knew japanese.

ThePunisher · Jan 10, 2002

Great game! So far I think its pretty hard to find but isnt there a ps2 port coming out? I hope its not true. I hate ports <IMG SRC="smilies/mad.gif" border="0">

Skies of Arcadia is cool. It's also got some badass graphics in it. Especially in that part where you go that first tower that flows in the sky and you are walking outside on these see through walkways. Now that is some kickass graphics!

Why would ANYONE buy RPG's in their Japanese releases? What a freaking waste, trying to wade through tons of japanese menus . . . maybe OK for shooters and fighting games, but FORGET it for RPGs . . . <IMG SRC="smilies/ohno.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/ohno.gif" border="0">

I already have that awesome RPG.
BTW,sega announced that they are porting SOA to the ps2 and gamecube not long ago!
To those who don't have luck in finding that game could wait for the ps2 and GC versions.

I think you just answered your own question.

SilentNinja · Jan 11, 2002

It's not only the best RPG on DC, but the Best rpg of 2000 arguable

Ducky · Jan 15, 2002

I still see SoA at some stores here and there. It's not as hard to find as some other DC games are getting to be, like Mr. Driller and Marvel vs Capcom 2.

I got SoA on the day of it's US release. What an excellent game. Good story, good characters, and lots of exploration. It is, in my opinion, the best RPG on Dreamcast, and it's one of my favorite RPGs ever.
