Actually, seeing that Blazing Star will finally have a proper, official English release, then yes they are being generous! I'd buy just for that game alone.

Nice! Some neo geo winners released for once.

Shame it's going to be on that thing.

I have to admit, I'm surprised. I didn't think any further games would be released for that thing.

Has anyone heard when the handheld by itself is going to be available? All I see online are the LE bundles.

They told me Q1 2013 for Deluxe Edition and they told me Q2 2013 for Standard Edition when I was looking to carry these.
