      No *bleep*ing way! First Japan gets SMRPG and now SoM. Things seem to looking good for the Japanese VC service. Hopefully, both the titles will make it to the US soon. I never got a chance to finish off SoM.

      Japan gets MSX games?

      MSX Metal Gear was always better.

      I want SMRPG to come here. People said it was such a good game, but I never got to play it.
