What would you consider the most important import to get for your collection?
« on: September 22, 2013, 06:55:14 PM »
Hello everyone.

It has been a while since I have been on here, so I figured I will start to ask with a question. 

As the subject stated, What would you consider to be the most important import for you to get from Japan? And Why? 

I am going to exclude the obvious, Dracula X, Street Fighter 2, and for me Ninja Gaiden!

What I really want is/are Macross 2036/Lovesong and all of the cosmic fantasy games!

Looking for some games, but I will prolly never find.  Sapphire, Magical Chase (US)

I was fortunate enough to pick up one of the big ones on my list at the same time I got my PC Engine (Final Soldier). For me, the biggest ones not mentioned yet would be Batman and Die Hard.

To me, it's Spriggan since it was my first foray into import gaming. Plus the fact that game it tops! Drac X is a no brainer but I got mine second hand (cheap but gamer copy for sure). Since my Spriggan has been in my possession since '91, I feel it's the most important.

Other great imports that have special meaning are Star Parodier and the 4 Konami hu shmups.

This is any easy one... The same reason we buy both JP and US stuff.  FUN

Personally after Ys I&II I was desperate for more, so Ys IV is tops.  Also, everyone should own Dracula X already....

Tengai Makyou Fuun Kabuki Den. Because it is the greatest game ever made and makes full use of the CD format, creating an experience cart games never even approached.

It's Dracula X. Period. Everything else is secondary.
