This is about Snobow Kids Plus.

See, a long time ago when I was younger around 1999 . I was walking around Chinatown in New York and I went to their import video game store that they got there. Looking through the titles, I stumbled across Snobow Kids Plus. Now this was during my peak obsession with SBK, so I freaked out naturally and I wanted to buy this game SO badly.

But I didn't have money on me and the parents was like, "You're spending your money again on a video game? No!" So they won't spare any cash for me, and my sister didn't have any on her. So I wanted out of the store very disappointed and I thought that I might got over it by now...

6 years has passed and I'm STILL not over it. >.>

Well, while I'm "boarding" around the internet "on my Alpine". I noticed that someone named HarkenSlash has a copy of Snobow Kids Plus on a Forum, so I just send them a Private Message that if they would be a doll and rip it for me because I was looking for this game for years. And what did he reply to me with?

"Sure, just gimme a few days to upload it!"

I am so excited you wouldn't believe it. ^^;; I'm finally gonna get SBK+, although not an official version. This would suffice until I see it up for sale at Yahoo! Auctions of Japan or if I can figure out myself around Amazon.co.jp.

And the point of this message? When he gets the upload ready, I'll send the bookmark to you guys so that you can get a copy too!!

[P.S. If this is against Board rules, just let me know and I'll delete this thread. ^^;; ]

Holy crap. HOLY CRAP. HOLY CRAP!

This is the best news ever, since SBK DS was announced. I think I'll go have a fangirl spasm in the corner now.

Oh yeah, I just made note of your LJ. You're a fan of Princess Maker. You rock. ^^;; Gotta love Cube!

Yay! The closest I ever got to owning it was when I translated a message to Italian asking if someone on Ebay Italy could reconsider and send it to the UK, not just to Italy, as the auction stated...

He said no.

Sounds good.Very good!
I saw Snobow kids plus here:
http://www.buyritevideogames.com/depart ... &last=1010
Price 15 dolars,but this website shutting down...

Linda Maltinie · Aug 28, 2005#72005-08-28T18:03

Buy Rite is never a good place to buy games, their service is extremely bad, and when the game is actually delivered, they are not in very good condition, if not broken.

According to GameSpot, Buy Rite was already shut down for their bad service and lack of communication to the BBB (Better Business Bureau), lack of communication with them is like trying to say that a restaurant isn't Food Service Certified.

On the case of SBK Plus, cool.

On the case of LiveJournal, meh, I still use mine, you can all keep me on your friends list and such, if you want to seek me out on there, my LJ is burin077, as my screenname depicts on my profile.

[color=00b2ee]That's cool for you. Personally, I can live without a copy. It won't affect my life in any way if I had it or not. XD

Linda Maltinie · Aug 29, 2005#92005-08-29T14:57

Let's just consider it a luxury then, hmm?

:lindanorm:

Raichu862000 · Aug 29, 2005#102005-08-29T22:10

Awesome! Now you guys can experience it too, so I don't have to do all this explaining about the game.

Not that I mind or anything. :jamrazz:

P.S. Finally finished the FAQ for Snobow Kids Plus, maybe I'll ask Bob to upload it in the Site General section.

enigmaopoeia · Aug 30, 2005#112005-08-30T03:49

You must register first. After you register it will redirect you to the area you need to be in order to download SBK Plus.

BobTheFish · Aug 31, 2005#172005-08-31T08:02

Right, it's downloading now. What emulator should I get (presuming my pc can handle it)...

Linda Maltinie · Aug 31, 2005#182005-08-31T12:12

How long is it up for? I still have to return from school before I can download it! *Sobs*

Sarahsuke · Aug 31, 2005#192005-08-31T17:06

I still can't access it. I'm probably screwed.

Polish Snowboard kids maniak · Aug 31, 2005#202005-08-31T17:31

I won this game*happy*.
Comment:This is old Snowboard kids,but this history is great.Rating 9+/10.I like it(maybe i love it).

Puyo_Blah · Aug 31, 2005#212005-08-31T17:36

Well, it's working... But I had to register... Something I didn't want to do... But Oh well!

Aug 31, 2005#222005-08-31T18:01

Ummm... I saved all 7 of the files onto my PC... But now what? How do I get an emulater and use it? I have absolutely no experience with this stuff... so I have like no clue what I'm doing... So can some one help me, please?

Slash Kamei · Aug 31, 2005#232005-08-31T18:11

[color=00b2ee]I think it'd be easier to unzip the files and burn them all on a CD, that way you don't need to worry about emulation. You can play ROMS likes these on the actual systems.[/color]

Puyo_Blah · Aug 31, 2005#242005-08-31T20:07

But... I still don't know how to do that either... And I only have a Gamecube, so I'd need to find like a mini-disc.... ARGH! This is so annoying. Blah...

You could always have someone send the files to you over aim.
