Pier Solar: Official Thread

I was worried about damage too when I first saw that flimsy envelope, but the game is encased in one of those indestructible plastic shells everybody hates. (this one was easier to get into though) So, no worries.

We do not neccessarily send replacements for damaged stuff; the games are well-protected, and any harm done would most likely be visible on the package. That's why we have the receiver sign for it; if you see the package looks like it was taken out of the burning remains of a crashed airplane, don't take it!

Bubble wrap envelope, cardboard and blister should well protect the game box, any abuse that would still damage it would be visible on the envelope.
Once you accepted it there is usually no return because of crushed boxes or anything, but only for real manufacturing errors.

Mine didn't have to be signed for, it was just in my mail box one afternoon:confused: I couldn't have refused it if it did look terrible. signing for it is a good solution though

In that case it's your postman's fault for not doing his job, and the post service would have to take responsibility. After all we paid for you having to confirm delivery. :)

I finally got my US Posterity Edition a couple days ago, and I did have to sign for it, which meant it had to sit at the post office for an extra day before I could make it there before 5pm.

Anyways everything here is great! The packaging is very safe and protective, for the 2 months it took to reach me from China (via the little old man on bicycle method). :p

The actual Genesis box is a thing of beauty. It's awesome that it's made as a book, opening up to the CD and the manual. I love the secret button for "goodies" that are hidden in the box. :cool: I hope this same exact package is sold again sometime, even though I know it would have to cost more than it did originally (for WM not to lose $ on it again).

Only just started the game but it's great. The CD soundtrack is just wonderful; the graphics are colorful and detailed. Dialogue is funny and it's cool that characters usually say a few diff. things if you keep talking to them! I remember someone complaining that 1st impressions sound too brief, but how much can you say when the whole story is just starting.

Oh also, the CD skipped like mad in my Model 2 Sega CD, for every song in the beginning, even the title screen! Anyways I burned a copy and it works perfectly. :cool:

*sigh* Another week gone and no game. :(

I'm really enjoying the game thus far.

I've read in the past where the Watermelon guys were wondering why more people who got the game aren't posting about it and in my case it's spoiler avoidance;)

You did a great job and your rpg passion shows!

Thanks :). I'm glad you said that, most people never say what they think about what I did in the game :).

^Yup. Since most of them say a few diff. things, talking to them is more like a conversation. You can leave after the first response, or you can stay and go through the whole conversation. (My only comparison is PSIV as the only similar game I've played thru. In PSIV most characters will say 1 thing, maybe 2 things but it's rare.)

So... are we talking two more weeks for the reprints to ship-out? Valentine's Day maybe? :)

Fonzie hit my with my tracking #. Basically its been stuck in Canadian Customs for the last month. Awesome! Glad my tax money is going to good (ie. efficient) use.

MY COPY CAME TODAYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!1111111111111111ONEONEONEONEone

^ Good.

Fonzie is replying to all the enquiries sent through the contact form now. He has about 200 and a quarter of those came from one single guy. Since Fonzie has replied to enquiries sent way after the game shipped, it means that guy sent more than one enquiry per day, by average. He also made three videos about this on YouTube. I wonder what this guy works with, I guess it must be something very time-consuming and tough, since a mere 50 mails and only three YouTube videos is nowhere near the demand of what it takes to get Pier Solar to arrive at your place.

I watched his second video for like 10 seconds, and I think he pronounced it "polo solo".

What accent is that? Kiwi speak?
