    Errm.... guys, help me out a bit here okay ? I wanna order the gamest mooks (The ones that I'm lacking anyway) from Kinokuniya. But errr..... like, do I need catalog numbers or something ? or do I just like, errr.... tell them "Okay, I need these books entitled Gamest Mooks, and they're err.... made by Gamest (?), and errr...... they're for Virtua Fighter."

    Sounds kinda ridiculous, but err.... anyway, what do I need to know ?
    Thanks

    When you say Gamest - Kinokuniya will know what you're talking about...at least the ones in New York do ;)

    I only have the TB mook in front of me. It's GamestMook vol.129 ISBN# 4-88199-478-6.

    The other mooks, as in Act1, Act2 for VF3 I don't have...Kbcat, you got the ISBNs for those? Or does GE have the mooks?

    Anyway, Rulakir, there ya go. Oh, there was a mook published for DC VF3tb - Clem is currently in Hong Kong and will be making his way over to Japan for a bit to check out the VF scene and said he would try to pick one up for Kbcat...Actually, doesn't Mike have the DC Vf3tb mook?

    Cheers,

    Re: Act 1 and 2

    Just filling in the missing info..

    Virtua Fighter 3 Act 1
    Gamest Mook Vol.55
    ISBN(?) T1063381550884

    Virtua Fighter 3 Act 2
    Gamest Mook Vol.69
    ISBN 4-88199-338-0

    I'm not sure if the number given with Act 1 is the ISBN or some other type of number, it's hard to tell. But let us know if you're successful in ordering them. I personally bought mine while I was in Japan.

    Mike, one thing, this VF3TB Technical Mook, is it the same on that Myke was talking about ? The one that's orange and has Akira in front ? The only other mook number I need is the VF3tb Complete Strategy guide. Its like, White in color, with a 3/4 view of Akira's face.

    Again, thanks for all the help guys !!!! /images/icons/smile.gif

    no, the VF3tb technical mook has no "akira" this time ^^; only white and blue color.

    The orange book is "Virtua Fighter 3 Official Playing Guide" published by SEGA, Softbank. ISBN4-7973-0453-7 Y2200

    The mooks Myke was talking about are Gamest mooks Act 1 and 2.

    Clem's parents live in Hong Kong, and he will be there visiting for the next months or so. I don't know his telephone number in Hong Kong--but, I do know he will be checking his web mail at babblefish@usa.net.


    cheers,

    Online Shops To Get The Mooks

    The Online bookshop you're looking for should be the Pegasus Express Japanese Book Store. This URL was taken off from the old ACP board. =] With all the ISBN numbers and the Volume numbers, you should be able to order them from this store. /images/icons/smile.gif However, if Neogamer's directions were correct (Pardon me if I'm wrong, as he mentioned this YEARS ago..... I just remembered when I was ordering the Act. 2 Mook from KinoKuniya Earlier....) you have to place a unique order. As to how much it would cost, I have absolutely no idea. /images/icons/frown.gif

    http://www.pegasus-group.com/

    If not, you could always look for the nearest Kinokuniya branch. Here's several URLs for you to check where the nearest branch is to your state.

    http://www.kinokuniya.com
    http://www.kinokuniya.com/newyork/store.html

    Hope that helps. /images/icons/smile.gif

    Re: Online Shops To Get The Mooks

    While I'm on about VF resources here.... (I recently got a minor windfall, so I'm gonna spend it all on VF, and Gundam Modelling kits.... /images/icons/wink.gif), does anyone know what happened to the old VF2 tapes known as the "Wheel Of Fortune" tapes ? and if there are any for VF3 ? Also, can I order say, the Java tourney, or Max. Battle tapes and such from Kinokuniya ? (Since promised copies of them tapes NEVER seem to make their way to me. /images/icons/frown.gif) Or could someone provide me a resource ? Else, I'm going to have to trouble Jeff again, and I'm embarrassed to keep asking him to get stuff for me as it is........

    Thanks
