Where can one find Tsukihime?

I've been googling busily, and I can't find a single place with Tsukihime or Tsukibako. Himeya lists it, but they're sold out, and I've been watching, but I haven't been able to find anything on Ebay. So, does anyone (Shinova?) have any ideas?

Messageboard, no registration required. Ask the people there. They know basically everything there is to know about Tsukihime. They may be able to help you.

If you manage to get the original, look at the messageboard's parent site: http://www.geocities.com/max3075/top.htm

It has a walkthrough that has about half the game partially translated (it tells you what's generally happening and such; doesn't have every piece of dialogue translated)

You can however, buy it from the Japanese Yahoo! Auction site which sellers start bidding price at an outrageous price of 30,000 yen (USD$300). Since the original MSRP for "Tsukibako" was sold at Toranoana was only 2500 yen (USD$25), you can see how rare it is to find this. Many sellers are rake in profits by selling it on Yahoo! Auction for 12 times the original price....which surprises me as well as there are people who actually bid on them.

It would be best that your friend wait a little bit more (unless he/she finds a non-Japanese site that sells one) since there are rumors that TYPE-MOON might re-release "Tsukihime" as a "remastered/full-version." Finally, the light has arrived for poor Sacchin!?

I'd already seen the site, but now I see that the "where to buy" is on the second page fo the forum. Very clever. Arigato Shinova-san.

I guess I'll wait then.
