Paid right now. First time I import a japanese game at launch. My wallet hurts, but it'll be worth it. ;_;
...I hope the brazillian customs don't overtax it.

Just completed payment.
This is only my second ever import (first was the Ico Collection LE). The cost sucks and I have no idea what I'm getting myself into, but I look forward to playing this insane piece of software.

Where do you live here?
I live in Curitiba and usually the customs here are very laxed when it comes to packages coming from Japan. I do not know if it the lacks of a value declaration in dollars (all amiami packages comes with invoice in english, but values in yens) and they are lazy to convert or the fact that there is a huge Japanese community here (so lots of packages arrives from Japan). I usually get a monthly package from amiami, and the only time I was taxed (with the wrong value actually, they undertaxed it) was last December (do not know if it was because a special operation for Xmas or not). Basically I received amiami packages very fast (max 3 weeks using SAL) and no tax at all. But if I order something from HK (like from Play-Asia) I am always taxed. But it will depends on your city and which customs departmart the package pass through.

This game looks eerily similar to Sengoku Basara 3. Even the characters fighting styles appear to be based upon different SB3 characters. Doesn't look as fun as SB3, but this is pretty good quality for a portable musou game.
I never had any interest in the 3DS games, but this one looks kind of fun.

Kinda surprised to see someone actually notice that. I agree that some characters (including weapons and moves) are definitely based upon SB series. I think some of the similarities are very intentional

if you getting cart you should be able to just slap it in.
if you going digital theres a few steps that im not 100% sure on but goes along the lines of either 2 memory cards or the formatting of 1....and changing the vita location to japan.

So I'm hearing reports that Daidouji isn't playable. That leaves me... really disappointed. :/
But you should be able to play it on your Dad's account, if you'd like.
You can follow my helpful guide if you want to switch to your account! Be warned that it's recommended that you have more than 1 memory stick.

Just paid my order off. Two copies of this and another game. One copy is for my brother. Around $225 total OTL
It really is. Only one possible NSFW gif on the first page.

I guess I'll just play it on my Dad's account. Probably be easier until I eventually get a vita.

Is no one else sad that Daidouji and Rin aren't playable? ;_;
Likewise. Good thing to wake up to.
I really loved playing as Rin, but Daidouji-senpai just seemed like a complete tank to control. I couldn't get on with her. T_T

I'm so jealous of everyone who's importing this game right now (Especially the guy getting Tales of Hearts R). By the time I have enough money for it, it'll be like June when everyone's got their full of it. I swear if this game gets localized by June (wishful thinking) when I can get it, I'll eat my own hat in happiness.
Regarding your vita guide, is it possible to save your bubble-placement/system settings/wifi key etc. if you use a second memory stick?

I know she was so slow, but I can't help but be sad! I was planning on having her by my second most played character. ):
Not that I believe, no. When you take out your memory stick, the bubble placement resets and messes everything up. The systme settings and wifi key are still there UNTIL you Restore the system to switch accounts. Then everything should be set back to default and you'd need to redo everything.
Oh nice. You think this will be available for a while? I plan on picking up a vita pretty soon but I could just grab this game early.

I'm from Curitiba too, but I have rotten luck with the customs. I hope I can get lucky this time. D: It MAY be because I always use shipping methods with tracking.
yes

nice, i've never ordered/heard of them before.
are they any good?
the only sites i've used to order import games is from play-asia and amazon
yes! they been around since 2000! I stopped using them in 03 cause i started getting more allowance money but yes they are one if not the BEST and cheapest place to import. I swear by it.
Everyone who doesnt want to spend $80+ like i do on a bi-weekly basis importing gamesshould use this site or ebay
Also: They are way cheap mostly because Asia versions are what are being sold. The JP versions will always be more expensive.
Also for those who arent fluent in JP some of the HK versions have English voice/text.

shipping to the states is like 30 bucks
play-asia's shipping is only 5 bucks
so both sites come out to be the same price. guess i'll wait till my tax return comes in...
Sigma 2+ isn't super bad IMO, but if I could I would return it. Paying $40 for a barely decent port seems like a rip off.
You made the right choice. The port seems kinda bad.
You can change the shipping speed, it selects DHL by default, the most expensive courier service. EMS is around $20 and Airmail is $5 to the US.shipping to the states is like 30 bucks
play-asia's shipping is only 5 bucks
so both sites come out to be the same price. guess i'll wait till my tax return comes in...

Never use tracking, tracking implies that customs should check the package. I always use SAL. Takes longer, but you pay less.
