Might be worth asking if they will ship internationally but if not, i'm happy to be a middleman and send it over myself

Pretty sure I can't buy that but I'll message him anyways. Considering how £12.99 translates to 21.0191 US dollars, how much do you think international shipping would cost?

Edit-

Do you offer international postage?
This seller doesn't offer international postage.

RoyalMail list it as £3.86 for international travel and an optional £5 on-top of that for insurance

So if you were to buy that and send it to my house, how much do you think it would cost overall? If I decide to go with that option, I'd fully compensate for your purchase via paypal or other services.

The cost of the item on ebay, plus the cost of its postage from the original owner to me, plus the cost of sending it To America.


So in the case of the above item, approximately £18.34

I think it might be best to wait until there's a better offer on eBay.

There actually was going to be a Bomberman 3DS, but ever since they (Konami) absorbed Hudson Soft for good, there's little to no possibility these days. In short, you'll probably have to stick with what plasm and the others suggested.

Since I have Bomberman Blitz on my 3DS, however, perhaps we could add each others' Friend Codes and hook up sometime.

I might get Bomberman Blitz at some point, but it's a pretty low priority. I won't have a 3DS XL until later this month.

Okay. It's only about $5, but then again, it is multiplayer-only (not to mention online-compatible) and doesn't have as much Battle stages as Bomberman DS and Bomberman Land Touch! do...

Yeah... I probably would be better off avoiding it for other Bomberman games. Shame Bomberman 2 (DS) never released in America. Would be fun to play that game with Americans.

I feel the same way you do, W.A.C.

All we can do is...well, hope that Konami comes to their senses and really pulls Bomberman 3DS out from the grave. I know they did the "100-Person Battles Bomberman" game on smartphones (currently only in Japan), but still.

Considering the casual/social gaming emphasis Konami wants from games by Hudson Soft employees, I have little hope in Konami's future direction with the franchise. Also, *beep*ing Christ. $40 FOR THIS GAME USED? UGH... Maybe I should've gotten it for around $27 when I had the chance. :/

Heh. Same here with one of their own franchises: Contra, if you will...

I know what it feels like, and I've been there. Konami nowadays is all about Metal Gear Solid (no offense, it was a good franchise despite that I never played much of it), Pro Evolution Soccer, and perhaps Castlevania.

If I lived in the UK, I could get the same game for around $27 in brand new condition. :/ ...Oh, I just thought of something. I could probably buy it through Amazon.co.uk, have it ship to one of you, and then one of you send it through international shipping. Would any of you be interested in doing that? How much would it cost to send it internationally?

It's a possibility, but due to regional-locking and crap, I probably won't be able to play Bomberman 2 DS...

The original DS, DS Lite, 3DS, and 3DS XL can play most European and Japanese DS games. DSi and DSi XL owners are S.O.L.

Edit-

The DSi's and DSi XL's region locking was hardware specific, where as the 3DS and 3DS XL's region locking is game specific. Japanese and European 3DS games, as well as Japanese and European DS games with DSi functionality won't work on American 3DS's.

Well, in that case, I might be able to play it on my DS Lite since I live in America. I guess I forgot...

The DS Lite isn't region locked. You should have absolutely no problem playing it unless the game has DSi stuff on it. If I get the game (hopefully I will at some point), I'll confirm for you if it works.

Considering how I would be playing it on an American 3DS XL, I wonder if the online play wouldn't work simply because I'm not a European. o_O If that wouldn't affect anything, then I guess I could technically play it with any American who has the European version.

That second hand copy from the Amazon marketplace will cost £12.98 (thats its cost plus its shipping to me).

The cost to ship it over (i should think the game will be in the 101-150g bracket) is £3.86, if you want it tracked securely its another £5.15 on-top of that
