Is it still possible to buy the Dark Side Box Set? |

So recently I rediscovered my love for the Field of the King (why is it called "King's Field" anyway?) and learned of the box set. But apparently
it no longer comes up on eBay, so I wanted to know A) what my options were and B) how much I could expect to pay for it.
Thanks in advance. |

I have seen it go above $180 on ebay, which is much too steep for me considering its all in Japanese. My recommendation is grab the tracks off the first post
in this forum and make your own music cd, and find the rom for the english converted KF1 original to play on a PSX emulator...if you havent played it by now
you will likely not be able to get through it as it is truly out of date in comparison to the other three. It would be a shame to buy the box set for such a
hefty price for things you can get with a little searching around on the forums (or PMing me).

Should we really even be discussing piracy on Agetec's official forums?
Anyway I didn't want to steal the games, I'd like to own the set just to own it and have a piece of awesome on my shelf. But if its gonna cost $180 dollars I better do some serious saving first. |

Heh i wasnt recommending stealing anything, i was merely saying if you wanted to try KF original in the converted text format i can get you a copy. I never
said that it was for people who didnt own the original japanese copy and I swear I woulda made sure. Considering the first sticky in this forum is
about getting free music tracks that were also a part of the box set, I dont think it much matters what I type here :P The other games of the series I already
assumed anyone who bothers to post here already owns, so I am not promoting piracy.

ARRRRRR!!!! Tis Consided Abandonware now! ARRRRRR!!!!!!!
HA! Just kidding. Are you wanting the Dark Side Box Set as a collector item, or are you genuinely wanting the games? The Dark Side Box Set is at amazon.jp and other places like kakaku.jp (link provided) and if you don't have spare Yen around the house like the rest of us, you can put your US dollars to work and get it at Play-Asia.com(link provided). (looks like a little over $100 which isn't bad) EDIT: Dang Play-Asia link! Search "King's Field" and there is one pre-owned copy there. Nab it quick!

Darn, its already been nabbed.
To be honest I just prefer boxed sets over getting games individually, but I might go the latter route anyway. |

Ouch that 25000 yen price at amazon jap is over $280.
The box set did seem to sell out fast so there are either verry few made or theres still more KF fans left than I thought.) If you want the 1st game & have a ps that will play imports or an emulator on pc here's a good price on the game at eBay. eBAY Its only $15. & 4. S&H from a US seller. Theres not alot of text in the 1st game so you wont miss much of the story.. Its a fun game (i like the pace of the 1st 2 KF games more than 3-4) but its kinda short, it takes place in the Royal Cemetary from KF3jap. Owning an item is always superior to just having access to it. |
