Yeah, the Japanese version of Panzer Dragoon Saga is worth about £30. It's practically worthless outside of japan due to the language. Plus the fact that it was produced in much higher quantities there. A lot of sellers like to pretend that it's rare but it really isn't. It's the limited batch western versions that are the rare ones and worth upwards of £60. I'm waiting for the price to dip again in the next few weeks before snagging mine.

plz dont cheapshot me and buy it, play fair game people, i found it.
I can personally vouch for that eBay seller if you were to purchase that item. Just pay attention to the fact that he does'nt accept PayPal during payment.
BTW, I just registered here today and want to say a big Hello all the way from South Africa to all you guys (and gals?)!!

I'm sure im not telling you anything you dont know, but it's not like you can region patch a legit disc. If he wants to make a backup and patch that, sure, but, I was just saying that a modchip wouldn't allow him to play the japanese original if he were to purchase it.

And just for confirmation, the Game Shark does not allow you to play imports. I actually tried it out.

Yeah the Saturn Game shark DOES allow you to play imports.

http://www.gamewinners.com/device/misc/blgameshark.htm

You have to hold in XYZ when you load the game with "Start Game Without Enhancements". Otherwise it doesn't work. I just played Street Fighter Zero 2 in my NA Saturn using a Game Shark.

However it won't provide any extra memory. You are better off buying an Action replay which allows you to play imports AND has the extra 1-4 Memory. Most Saturn Imports worth playing (ie Vampire Savior) require the extra memory.

The only reason I got the Game Shark was because it was cheap.

I guess that is what happens when you can't find the instructions to your Game Shark. :oops:

My bad. :oops:
