$hockwave · Apr 12, 2001

Yeah, I have been looking for a new copy of Soul Calibur since forever. I finally found Capcom vs SNK a couple of weeks ago after searching many stores to find it.

I think the best bet would be to order from an on-line store, like www.express.com or www.amazon.com. Either that or try ebay and only buy from people with really high feedback if you are worried. I have bought about 10 games off ebay and haven't had one problem yet...not to say that there isn't a chance for one.

It seems that the Capcom games are the ones that are going out of print as far as Dreamcast games go. There is demand but stock has been sucked up and very few copies are left circulating.

Bro, go check music stores that sell games. A lot of them still have really old games. I found Soul Calibur at a music store. I don't remember which one though.

Good call. Also try K-Mart ... things don't move very well in K-Marts, sadly.

I know that Project Justice, the next game in the Rival Schools series, is scheduled to be released April 27 or 29 (I can't remember which).

I dont know about your kmarts but my kmarts dont carry dreamcast.So you may as well check your local gas station jerky.

All I can say is preorder, I Preordered Project Justice, Mars matrix and Gigawing 2 from there site, also ordered a lot of the other software from capcom and they are pretty cheap also. Plus the company gets more money that way. It is not like you are saving a whole lot from getting it from a store or off the web instead.

I'm more worried about Guilty Gear X, If it isn't brought over Im afraid it'll go out of print in Japan, right when I try to get it.

We know the same problem in France.It's very hard to find games and when we find them they are always the same.

K-Mart did carry DC, they stopped because they didnt pay Sega the bill for the merchandise Sega was sending them. KMarts still have old DC software though,tucked away in corners of the electronics dept that noone can see.

You do not know how right you are. The KMart here in Fairbanks has the PS2 and DC games thrown together in one display case, but you would not even know the DC games were there because they are dumped in the bottom of the case with all the PS2 games dumped on top of them.

Of course, these are the same people that could not find their key to open the N64 case when I was trying to double-check the price of a game for Silent_Scope.

All I have seen for sale of the import is the LE version of Guilty Gear X. Have they even made an unlimited edition yet?
