Yo folks -- a local friend of mine was able to come across Azumanga Beach Volleyball after a lot of searching, and he sent me a copy. I know it had come up in a previous topic, though I don't know if folks here are still seeking AzuBeach; if you are, let me know, and I'll have it up temporarily. (It's a 17.0 MB RAR file.)

EDIT: Download the file here; I'll have it up for about a week unless there's a request to have it up for longer. (And, just in case: WinRAR.)

All right -- the file's uploaded! Refer to the original post -- I edited it to put in the link.

Thanks! They took me a while (to get the right shots), and I'm happy with the results. Contra Hard Corps has quickly become a favorite of mine, as I find it really well executed: it didn't take me long for the game to draw me in, even if it took me a bit to get accustomed to the available moves, the difficulty level. Er, I still haven't beaten it yet, though I get closer every time... (And I still find the helium voices and "dancing" robots quite funny.)

In the meantime, this is my way of paying my respects to the game.

Browny was repeating some bad words, so we had to beat him upside the head and send him to his room. Little robots shouldn't be saying words like that.

There's actually a manual included within the RAR file; it should be MANUAL.HTM. I'll post some of it here:

From MANUAL.HTM > サポート :

ＯＳ：ＡＴ互換機上で動くＷｉｎｄｏｕｗｓ９８/Ｍｅ/２０００/ＸＰ（要ＤｉｒｅｃｔＸ８以降）
ＣＰＵ：推奨ＰｅｎｔｉｕｍⅢ４５０ＭＨｚ以上
ＶＧＡ：Ｄｉｒｅｃｔ３Ｄに対応した６４０Ｘ４８０　６５５３６色が表示できＶＲＡＭ８ＭＢ以上を搭載したもの
メモリ：６４ＭＢ以上（推奨１２８ＭＢ以上）

So, check for the latest copies of DirectX, and I don't know whether or not that'll take care of the Direct3D part also (I'm not much of a PC gamer) -- other than that, you'd need upgrades to your comp, I'd imagine.

If everything is okay, then you should be able to select the viewing format (Windowed/FullScreen) and something about WAVs (I don't have Unicode set to Japanese characters right now).

EDIT: Well, since that part's okay, there's this next part:

quote:

You can also use the Z key to change characters. And, pressing down and spacebar will invoke a power-type move.

The game is also compatible with joysticks / gamepads, with your first button being HIT and second button being SWITCH.

Yay! I finally got it! I know I will enjoy this! That's for sure!

I know about the secret, but I haven't actually started searching for it yet. For some reason, I thought it would come up after I got a certain ending. But, since it's on the third stage... well, I'll try searching for it first without the help of FAQs. (Unless the secret is really obscure...)

Well... I'll give you a hint. It's surprisingly obvious when you think about it, but you'd never actually " go there ". ;)

Ha ha ha! I beated this game with every default team! It's too easy to win with Sakaki and Kagura, but it's too hard to win with Chiyo-chan and Osaka. Personally, my best team is actually Tomo and Yomi for some reason, but it's so fun to play with Chiyo-chan and Osaka.

The controls took me a while to get used to, but I got the hang of it. I knew how to do every task except for power shots. Now, I know.

No problem at all! I actually haven't beaten it myself -- I've only gotten to the third match before I went off to something else, as it seemed to me like it was going to infinitely repeat. Now that I know that it can be beaten...

(... no! Must ... resist! Too... many... responsibilities ... promises... GUWAAAAAAAAAAAAAUGH!!)

(... *cough*)

Anyway -- I'm going to share it tonight with the local anime club. I'd like to see how they react to it!
