Most of us here don't speak teh french, as due to our caveman like low brows and simple brains, we were barely able to master the english language as is, let alone the use of fire, or the wheel, and in no way could we master two languages at once. Regardless, cool to see this anyway. Would be awesome if a english edition was published so that our simple child like intellects could also be exposed to.

Well, I think the collector's edition would have been nice - I really like the way they put it together.
However, as shubibinman states, you can order it from Amazon France.  Of course, that means it'd be the 4th (maybe 5th ?) country I have to make a new Amazon account for.

I wonder how much international shipping is for the two books... 19 euros each for the books isn't so bad, but shipping could be nasty.


Update:

To Canada and the USA, it looks like shipping is one of two choices; either:
- "rapide" (10 to 12 days, which is not so rapid), for 9.00 euro plus 1.90 euro per item.
- or, "eclair" (I don't think this is a pastry - 2 to 4 days), for 20.00 euros, plus 4.00 euro per kilogram.

Unfortunately, no release is planned outside of France. Pix N Love tried to translate and distribute their books in english speaking countries but it was too much an investment and it looked like it would have been a total failure.

But things might change, who knows?

About The Bible PC Engine Volume 2, there would be no real point to sell it outside of FRance as one the main article talks about how the PCE was distributed here and there would be no point to tell that story to US or japanase readers.

I'd read it, assuming there's some real meat to it.

I've interviewed the guy who first imported the PCE in France and the woman who established Sodipeng. :)

there is always a point, and I'd bet one of my legs that some japanese folks would love to read about some historically kaigai stories of their legendary gaming stuff :)

As Pix N LOve's big boss knows a few people in Japan's retrogaming scene, I'm pretty sure he'll manage to ship some copies to retrogame shops in Tokyo and Osaka ;)

I think you can alos order directly from their website, they would ship to Japan I guess.
