I never thought I'd let something like that get in the way of me enjoying a game, but after expecting it to be the 'ultimate' version, of NMH I felt violated.
On the topic of Senko no Ronde, I bought it years ago but have only dabbled with it. I don't think I 'got' it. Based on the talk in this forum I think I need to go back and try it again.

I thought Senko no Ronde was absolutely brilliant, personally. I got into it quite heavily and even played quite a few games online back in the day. I think I still have someone on my friends list who I still arrange the odd game with every now and then.
It did take a lot of getting used to, but once you've found the right character and really gotten used to the move variants you can pull off, it's excellent.
A lot of stuff really isn't explained, or is hard to pick up especially in the Japanese version. It took me a while to figure out that holding in the barrier and performing your shots gave you different moves, along with the differences in the two cartridge types that you can chose from between characters. As soon as I got into the moves to pull off, it just entered a league of it's own.
Especially fun when you completely break your opponent's armor, put them into final boss mode, completely avoid EVERYTHING and rinse them out for a spectacular, humiliating explosion. Can't help but grin.
@All - Thanks for the feedback, i've added them to my little list below:
No More Heroes
Gal Gun
Muchi Muchi Pork / Pink Sweets
Raiden Fighters
Death Smiles IIX
ESPGaluda II
Radirgy NOA Massive
Blazblue Continuum Shift
Senko no Ronde DUO
I quite liked Radirgy on the Dreamcast so i'm looking forward to giving that one a shot

Lovely place
Thanks for the offer...could be tempted by your Blazblue, really didnt give that the time it deserved when I had it on the PS3 & I can't afford to import it for the 360 now
Thanks buddy

Some games on demand are IP locked. I remember I couldn't buy GG Midnight Carnival from the JPN store, and I know other people getting some of the 360 shmups were out of luck too unless using a proxy to kick it off
How much is the DFK BL DLC? I want to get it despite having the disc coming from VGI, have a horrible feeling I have just under 1200 points on my JP account though after buying the VO:Force DLC.

Anything downloaded off the marketplace like demos and DLC, are fine and not actually locked to IP address.
But downloading from Games On Demand will only work if you're on a Japanese IP, so putting my connection through a Japanese proxy/vpn was the only way to go about doing it. Handy if you can get the setup right though, as you can use Microsoft points to buy games off the JP games on demand.
Buy points card on ebay, connect through proxy, download off store. Wham bam easy import.
Fuse, what DLC can you currently get for Virtual On Force? I'd be interested in getting a bit of that.
