Popolocrois (PSP) -- anyone get it yet?
- Thread starter john tv
- Start date
I'm going to get this, whether someone finally brings it over here or I have to import it, but I must admit, I'm really surprised they didn't include PoPoRoGuE. Considering both games on the disc are ports, would it have killed S&R to put one more game on there? I think the UMD is large enough. Seems silly to me.

And even i am moderately surprised
tried to get it from "that place" on monday - they had it, they had everything, but the douche bag there wouldn't let me have it , explaining that it wasn't out until thursday (despite selling DBZ3 to the guy infront... argghhh)
was going to try "that place in TD" last night, but it was shut when i got there...
i'll get it tonight and bitch it out/lick it's butt later tonight.

Interesting -- are you talking about "that place" near me?DCharlie said:
If so, I think I need to arrange a chat with that guy to explain why he needs to sell me stuff on Monday in exchange for him getting my business rather than Bic Camera.
I just picked it up, prolly won't get a chance to try it until later tonight though, if at all. Busy day!

i've encountered two guys there...
"the kid" who looks about 15 , but has no qualms about selling you anything , whenever (albeit that i picked the last game up on tuesday rather than monday).
"the toothless geek" ... he's missing some front teeth and looks like his new "flat mate" is possibly Oscar the Grouch.
It was the later of the two who was like "oh, but it's not out until Thursday! come back then!"...
I tried with my best shitty japanese to explain that i understand that but that i could usually "flying get", but he was like "no... it's not out until the 10th..."
I wouldn't be as bothered if he hadn't just sold DBZ3 to someone.
awesome, i never got round to playing these, so it's gonna be totally FRESH!
Yeah there's one guy there who's always got a suit on and always seems like he's in a rush. He dresses kinda like a low-level Yakuza who can't afford nice clothes yet. That's the guy who sold me Yoshi early. I'll have to go talk to them next time (seriously) to see what I can arrange. Maybe I can get my better half to do the negotiating for me.DCharlie said:
*JOKE*Alright, Nippon-Ichi or Agetec sound like possible publishers too! Thanks for the vireland quote as well, jiggle!
Man, I've always wanted to try the Popolocrois series, and this is a perfect opportunity to bring the series over.
Also, it's a collection, so it's virtually calling out to Working Designs!!
And Vic, if you're reading this, throw in any junk you want (yes, even playing cards!!), I'll eat it up as long as you decide to bring the game over!

I'm not a fan of Nippon Ichi or Agetec... I'd rather someone else took up the publishing duties. Vic, where you at??Kiriku said:Alright, Nippon-Ichi or Agetec sound like possible publishers too! Thanks for the vireland quote as well, jiggle!

Popolocrois is... blurry.
I got to play it for 5 mins literally before lunch ended and worked restarted.
--Anime cutscenes look nice
--music and sound quality seemed good
--Either my PSP is dying or the game has wierd disc reading. Unlike the other games I own every time it read the disc it was LOUD, sounded like the PS1 loading if you put your head next to the system.
--Control is a bit wierd, the game moves isometrically so when using the analogue it's kinda awkward at first control.
--Game doesn't load when moving around through the castle screens BUT if you move into a room that has a different music track the screen goes black and you hear the cd start up and you wait like 10-20 secs for it to load the next room + track. So if the loading in the game becomes bad I blame it all on the music.
--FMVs and startup narration had voice acting, actual game does not (should be the same as the PS1 games)
--Font used is really nice and readable, this makes a big difference on handhelds.
--Graphics looked good from what I saw.
And on a side note when I took it out of the soft case to start it up I noticed I had a huge hairline scratch right in the middle of the screen that's apparent even when the game is on. PSP hates me ;_;
