Unboxing [JP]: Another Century's Episode: R (PS3)

We have ourselves another import order, except this game was supposed to arrive last month but got misplaced with Strider Hiryu instead. Thanks to my recent order on Gundam UC I was able to receive this game alongside it.

Unboxing [JP]: Mobile Suit Gundam UC - Standard Edition (PS3)

We have ourselves another import order. This time I decided to go after another Gundam game since I finished playing Side Stories earlier this month.

Unboxing [JP]: Strider Hiryu (PS3)

Arriving on the same day as Gundam Side Stories, this is actually the misplaced item. However, after getting in contact with customer services they decided to let me keep it (probably wasn't cost effective for either of us). Regardless this is a pretty good game from what I have heard so here we go.

Overview [JP]: Mobile Suit Gundam Extreme Vs. (PS3)

Time for a throwback item (aka overview). Back in October 2014 I acquired my first non-Musou Gundam game on eBay and I didn't unbox it for my blog at the time (it wasn't until I received Initial D Extreme Stage that I decided to include games to the mix).

Here's an overview of the original release of Extreme Versus!

Unboxing [JP]: Mobile Suit Gundam Side Stories (PS3)

My recent haul from Solaris Japan once again hits some unfortunate situations. My copy of Another Century's Episode R got mixed up with a different item (Capcom's Strider remake) but I got Gundam Side Stories at least correctly.

Unboxing [JP]: Vampire Resurrection (Darkstalkers Resurrection) - Standard Edition (PS3)

Next up on our import gaming haul we have another Capcom HD collection with the Japanese version of the Darkstalkers games. Acquired for a good price on eBay and arrived in very good condition.

Unboxing [JP]: OneChanbara Z: Kagura with NoNoNo! (PS3) [NSFW]

Been many months since I last imported and the rate improved so I went onto another import spree. Next we have our very first CERO Z title for the collection, thanks to one of D3 Publisher's well-known IPs. As prices were going up I acquired a pre-owned copy instead.

To play it safe the cover is semi not safe for work.

Unboxing [JP]: Gal*Gun - Standard Edition (PS3)

Been many months since I last imported and the rate improved so I went onto another import spree. First up we have a rare out of print game due to the publisher going bankrupt and as such I acquired a pre-owned copy.

Unboxing [JP]: Wangan Midnight - The Best! Edition Reissue (PS3)

Next up on my importing ventures is a PS3 title that's actually becoming rarer but I decided to go for a pre-owned copy due to the new retail copies becoming too dear to own.

Unboxing [JP]: Sengoku Basara HD Collection (PS3)

Managed to make use of my 1000 Yen coupon for Solaris Japan. Even better the rate got better in time so I finally placed an order. Here we have the second of two, which is actually a collection of games.

Unboxing [JP]: Ryū ga Gotoku Kenzan! - The Best! Edition Reissue (PS3)

Managed to make use of my 1000 Yen coupon for Solaris Japan. Even better the rate got better in time so I finally placed an order. Here we have the first of two.

Unboxing [JP]: Macross 30: Ginga o Tsunagu Utagoe - Standard Edition (PS3)

The final import that I acquired a few weeks ago has arrived. Later than the usual shipping estimate but no issues whatsoever.

Unboxing [JP]: Shin Koihime Musou: Otome Taisen Sangokushi Engi - Standard Edition (PS3)

Surprise import addition. I was able to win this game from an auction and I basically paid just below the normal price you would find elsewhere. This is also the original release and not the Yeti Best edition.

Unboxing [JP]: Shining Resonance - Standard Edition (PS3)

The last of the trio of games I picked up is SEGA's long running RPG series from the Shining franchise.

Unboxing [JP]: Phantom Breaker: Extra (PS3)

Another Japan-only fighting game joins my collection, as part of my big haul of PS3 games to acquire. I figured I would buy the game from Solaris Japan since it was pretty cheap for an import.

Overview [JP]: E.X. Troopers (PS3)

Next up on my recent overview posts of Japanese PS3 games is a strange addition to the Lost Planet universe, but it still has a neat artstyle to it.

I picked this game up for a really cheap price over on Nippon Yasan and it's still available for a low price for many retailers.

Overview [JP]: J-Stars Victory VS - Standard Edition (PS3)

Next up on my overview Japanese games backlog is my second import J-Stars Victory VS. Like Project DIVA I also ended up using the Amazon Marketplace to pay for these (not recommended because that marketplace is unpredictable, as evidently seem with my copy of Project DIVA F 2nd which ended up being the Region 3 version).

Anywho the game got localised so what's the original set like then? Let's find out.

Overview [JP]: Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA F - Standard Edition (PS3)

It's about time I got through some of my older Japanese PlayStation imports given it's been a year since I started adding them to this blog. There are only a couple imports that I didn't cover but I felt like covering them regardless.

The first import I'll be covering is my very first one. I got this game through the Amazon marketplace and honestly I paid way too much for it but I still put a lot of hours into it.

Unboxing [JP]: K-On! Houkago Live!! HD ver. (PS3)

The Light Music Club have their own rhythm game! Here's an overview of the HD remastered version of Houkago Live!!

Unboxing [JP]: Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA F 2nd - Standard Edition (PS3)

So I waited a while after messing up my order on this game. I ended up with the Region 3 version and I didn't want to keep it. But now I got the version I wanted, at a relatively good price! Here's an overview of the latest Project DIVA title in the Hatsune Miku series.
