Still Playing Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout as my primary game. I think I should be in the later half of the story, not sure though. Pretty much just playing this now, so should be able to finish it soon-ish.

One exception though, with all the Donkey Kong drops, I started Donkey Kong Country 2 (NSO SNES) again. And I don’t know what issue I had last time, but this time I was able to clear the first area pretty easily. Died couple of times in last level, but other than that it was pretty simple. I didn’t find all the secrets though. Only 2 DK tokens, though got most of the KONG letters, not sure about other secrets, but I am sure I missed some.

Stopped playing at first level of the second area / world. The lava one. Only started it on impulse and may play it a bit here or there, but will return to it seriously only after finishing Atelier Ryza. I really enjoyed playing it though, hope difficulty won’t spike too much as the game progresses.

What about all of you? What have you been playing?

    Thanks for the info, saving it for future reference.

    I don’t want to buy the physical versions, so will have to see if I should go the PC route or try to get it from another region.

    Any chance any of them will be coming to west?

      The general consensus is “almost zero”. Would be a licensing nightmare since they’d need approval for the license holders of those 15+ different series in the US/EU. Releasing Japan/Asian versions with english support is probably their best way to support a western audience without dealing with this.

      That being said, it’s not that hard to buy from a different eShop region. When I bought Atri I simply created a Japanese account using a different e-mail and got a prepaid card for that region from play-asia.com.

        Yeah, the only issue is I don’t like to create multiple accounts, but I guess is there is no getting around it.

        You can change your own account’s region too, but you can’t do it if you have any money in your account, even 0.01, and that’s not possible when using prepaid card.

        Thanks for the info.

          Heard that’s easy to do as well, but haven’t tried.

          I’m used to having multiple accounts for different regions, have been doing that since the Xbox360 days.
