What is the estimate price you guys can get it for (the book)?

I see that amazon has it for like $20 (a little less), but I dont have a CC to buy it from them, so can somebody get me a new copy and send it to Mexico and for how much total?

I'm all alone, dealing with my broken heart. Why I have feelings if they feel so bad. All seems so dark, will I ever see light?

lol, as far as I know MMPR is actually a japanese show, they just added american actors in where there were face shots and redubbed it when they showed it in the US. Kinda funny I think :)

Strangely enough I remember when I first saw that "show"

I was on a bus to Chicago for a field trip in my business economics (or some class, I can't remember) in high school and I saw it on my pocket TV (which of course I had, being the consumate portablist even back then)

And I thought "WHAT THE HELL IS THIS????" Naturally it made a fortune!

Yeah, i remember buying all that stuff (er... asking my mom really). That was cool (god I was stupid back then). That and I was an actual member of the fan club. And that first movie that came out, my cousin gave me those stand up cut outs of the people. I still have them in my garage back in america.
An YES, PowerRangers is from Japan. All the scenes with people fighting in the suits are really Japanese actors dubbed over. Only a few shots where with actual American actors. Even before I left, the same thing was going with the newest power rangers show. One scene would be crappy and full of american actors then when the monster attacks, everyone in the scene is suddenly Japanese. Anyway, I wanna be the robot dude. He was THE PImP of the series. Women loved him, ``Hey dudes, dudeets.`` Aww.. yes.
Oh yeah, Power Rangers still shows on some stations here in Japan. I dont know which one it is because in America they would sometimes mix like two Japanese powerrangers together for one show in America. It was crazy.
Anyway, If you are a newb and still reading this far, you actually have an interest in portables (porbably since you are looking for information here still). So I want to say congratulations. omedetou gozaimasu. yoshya... ne, boku ha tsukareta. jya, newb-san, yokatta ne... Anyway...
Back to the subject anyone?
When in Japan with access to just about every system ever made and those that have yet to see international soil, gather your forces, and make the cool ones your own.

Then we'll have to just keep you alive. After all how hard can it be to teach newbies to be civil? The Spaniards did it with the Natives I think we can do the same here.

Ben,

Congrats on the book. My sister got it for me as a Christmas gift, and so far I'm very impressed with it. I look forward to shrinking down a few old game systems, and making some new friends on the boards as well!

Thanks for putting in the time for guys like me, who love video games and know almost nothing about the technical side. I'm sure this will rapidly become my "Video Game Bible", if you get my meaning.

See ya! :D

Josh
