Just a little heads up to those in the UK who were after these titles - I know there's been a few threads on these in the past with people trying to get hold of a copy, but I've found them for sale in the UK at last.

Head over to Amazon.co.uk and they have them in stock. I bought them both and they have arrived, brand new and sealed and are actual UK versions of the games (yep, they have the green triangle). I can't find them anywhere else online except the odd one on ebay going for over £40 (under £20 here) so I don't know if this is a limited thing or not or if they'll ever get any more in stock so I suggest you snap them up just incase.

Fine. I got Samurai Shodown Anthology, the French version, for £16.86 on Ebay. It was cheaper than the £22 I would have paid for the game on amazon.co.uk - actually having the english version is of no importance, I'd rather just get the cheapest one that runs on my console in English.

I would rather have had the Virtual Console version and I already own the first two on VC but it could be years if at all when they all appear. And then they would cost me a lot more to get all of them that way.

Edgey, Gumshoe, Godot, Sissel, Larry, then Mia, Franziska, Maggie, Kay and Lynne.

I'm throwing my money at the screen but nothing happens!

Sounds like Ignition finally sorted their UK distribution issues and got their discs back.

Thats good news Madgear. Proper 60hz versions. The upscaling is very obvious and Kof 98 has a sound bug but overall they are fine.

Hopefully an SNK classics volume 2 will be on the horizon and Kof 99, 2000, 2001, 2002 collection will come out.

Also hopefully Castle of Shikigami will get released as its stuck in schedule hell at the moment with another distributor.

Woo hoo! Got my copy of King of Fighters Collection on Friday! Now I can play them without having to switch between Saturn and Dreamcast. We just need Garou: Mark of the Wolves on the Wii now...

Is it worth it for an American like me to get the Samurai Shodown Collection, or should I just get SS2 and SS3 (when it comes out) on Virtual Console?

Ash: Professor Oak, how's your Bulbasaur?
Prof. Oak: Oh, it only hurts when I sit.
...
Prof. Oak: It's only Chansey if Krabby won't let go. Bye, now.
Ash: I don't think I'm going to call him anymore.

Yeah but in the French version the refs just wave white flags...

Ristar - yeah, I'm hoping for a Fatal Fury Collection. Guess there's always a chance since we've had one for King of Fighters, Samurai Shodown and Metal Slug now.

Bulbasaurus Rex - yeah I'd prob go for the Collection. You get six games on it and probably wont set you back much either.

At least GAME has it listed as coming in 2011. Given I've waited 2-1/2 years for Williams Pinball Classics, I can wait for this.
