Edit of the edit: Great. Now I'm getting an error message any time I try to start the program up.
Something about file:/Patch/hashlist.dat
I think I saw something about this, but can't seem to find it again. I'll try reinstalling, but what is this?

It might have something to so with a patching problem, (happens to me sometimes when my wireless dies in the middle of updating or during multiple updates). Try running the patcher (imagineupdate.exe) again until it completes, it should work.

And on another note, I got an email from smt online, apparently you can now  have a demon book/compendium with you? o.O Dunno if it's CP only or quest related:

Hey, you have Demikids cards too? X3 I wanna figure out how to play that game ^^; Or I'll somehow manage to play it like yugioh, (I summon Pyro Jack in attack mode! XD)

...uh, anyways, I've found a bunch of SMT-related books; some are artbooks, some are game guides, and some are a bit of both XD Best of all I found them all in the same ebay shop, just incase anyone wanted to check it out HERE since I'm too lazy to add links to them all :p


PERSONA 3 III MATERIAL ART BOOK


SHIN MEGAMI TENSEI ENCYCLOPEDIA BOOK


Megamitensei Devil Summoner Soul Hackers Persona
(I'm pretty sure that's not the title of the book, lol)


Megami Tensei Series Guide Book (Not Strategy Guide)

...And theres a couple guide books too, (haha, it's the evil Loki again. Wow, that game is as old as I am XD)

whee, I got mine yesterday :D actually havent played it yet, read the manual and flipped through the art book while listening to the ost first XD My ps2 has a serious case of dying, so it might be difficult to play if it freezes on me >_> gotta invest in a region-free version, lol

Hey all, I'm back again, this time with some more local finds, (ooh, ebay XD)

Firstly, there's a bunch of auctions for sets of common/uncommon/rare/holo cards from the SMT TCG, the most recent set I think (nocturne? >_>)


And boxes of some of the older TCG card sets


...and demikids trading cards too XD


and a dual audio dvd of "Shin Megami Tensei: Tokyo Mokushiroku" (I don't think this is the ova with Loki in it though o.O)

and because I'm lazy all pictures are links too X3

Ooh, look what I found, an animation cel from the megaten OVA anime, (cant remember the exact name of it >_>)


(picture is also a link)

It's Loki looking all evil and fluffy XD

I wanna know what the difference is between a klan and a party, (partys, from what i've found, are only temporary during the time you are logged on until you log off, but i dunno what a klan is XD)

And as for the shops, you choose a pre-set shop keeper, not one of your own demons; I think you can only choose from Jack Frost, Pixie, or Garm. You also pay 300-500 depending on where you want to set up shop. I've got a Garm shop spot a bit before you reach the main shop area in the 3rd home (on channel 8). Look for a dizzy Jack Frost, and you should find it :p So stop by and buy my junk XD

is there any way to tell a demons exact level? (the blue and red symbols are kinda vague.) I want to know how close I am to catching some demons, but I'm only level 13 ^^;

hmmm, what might this be, going for 15,800 yen? o.O (for windows 95? lol)

The SMJ website looks interesting but when I looked up on Persona merchandise on the list it took me to Yahoo! Japan, and sellers do not ship overseas and I do not understand how can you buy stuff from Yahoo! Japan and SMJ ships it to you.
Any help ?

try here for shipping info: http://www.shoppingmalljapan.com/howship.html
Basically they have people in Japan who bid of the items, then if they win the item it ships to their Japan storage facility. And from there it gets shipped to their US storage until you want all of the items you've bought sent to you, (Unless you request them not to, then they'll ship it straight from Japan to wherever you may be located if you're not in North America).

Right now they only specialize in Yahoo Auctions, but recently on their forums they've said they want to add the additional special ordering service; (I don't think it's available to access yet though.)

http://www.cospa.com/staticdoc/p/company_indexe
according to the english guide on their site, they don't ship overseas...
Try shoving this webpage through babelfish, http://www.cospa.com/event/id/156, maybe that might help? XD

*edit* Found this website called "Shopping Mall Japan", basically they can buy merchandise in Japan and ship it to you; right now they're restricted to only Yahoo Japan auctions, but they plan on releasing a new feature in August where, for a fee, you can order merchandise off of Japanese websites.

Maybe this will be helpful? o.O

ooh, lookit what else I found:


that live action devil summoner show. probably the whole series, only 25,000 yen XD

*edit* dear gods, I dont even wanna know what this is >_> Jack Frost sings?

Or, stuff you'd probably only find in Japan XD
If anyone else finds anything noteworthy, post up a picture of it here, (and maybe a link to the store/site if it's actually available to buy XP).

Found a couple SMT/Persona Doujinshis on Ebay; some are yaoi, so watch out if you're not into that kind of thing ;>_>


...and a Jack Frost pillow; it's for sale on Yahoo Japan Auctions o.O
*well it was yesterday, someone must have auto-bought it for 4,000 yen, (about $40+ Canadian?)


Even more manga/books, also from Yahoo:


A phone card?


And some cute little gashapon toys XD


Just thought I'd share some of the random stuff I've found on the net :p

i think they're updating magic skills and such in relation to the player and demon levels? and the way each demon levels and how many skills it can learn and carry... I think >_> I need to update my client...still. If my computer would stop imploding XD

Apparently this manga is being released by Tokyopop, coming out in English early 2008.
Saw them online to buy, (but probably in French,) HERE.

Anyone else heard of this? o.O

*poke* just added a pic of the secret character figure: Great Pascal! :3
I'm pretty sure these figures are now available to buy on ebay and other online shops :p
And the first and second set of gashapon figures are making a comeback too; they were re-released in June and are available too, (according to HobbyLink Japan)

Oh.. how do I get a Jack Frost? The hee-ho is love... >_>
Also, where does everyone play? I need English players. >_>;

Jack Frost can be found in a couple places in the first place that you find wild demons, (cant remember the name of it ^^; ). A few hang around near the end of the map before you get to the forest, and there are one or two in a small passage way around the middle of the map; watch out, they hang around a very strong Orthus, who could kill you from behind while you chat up the Jack Frosts, (that was the first way I died in the game; death by Orthus, lol).

Unfortunatly, I've been having issues with my game, tried reinstalling, and cant fully reinstall without my computer dying or something >_> anyways, I used to hang around channel 8 mostly, sometimes channel 5. Dunno about anyone else around here though. Usually I keep the chat/message window closed since I dont talk to people anyways :p
