Need help, please.

Post by Timmetry »

I'm trying to find a good place to download the Usagi Yojimbo video game. I went to one place and had to download a c64 and I couldn't figure out how to use the c64 so I just deleted it. Anyway, can someone let me know where I can download the game, also, any other good downloads? I was also wondering in what order the Usagi books go. If you know of a place that lists them in order, thats fine. I've been a minor fan of Usagi for some time, but just recently got the urge to actually read all of the comics. Figured the easiest way is to get the books, but I don't know where to start. Thanks in advance.

Good Place for Book List

Post by fortunec00kie »

Hey there,
I was in a similar situation to you. Except I was looking for a place to buy the books. Anywas the best place (and easiest) to find all the books is this website. Just go to the main page and about 4 or 5 links down on the left you will see a link called the UY Cover Gallery. Click here. It is a picture gallery of all the comic covers and the book covers etc. I found it very helpful for getting the books in order because i knew what each book looked like.
As for places to buy the books, again look at the links on the main page of this site. The first 7 books can be purchased at www.fantagraphics.com and the remaining books can be purchased at www.darkhorse.com
These are the publisher's web sites.
Hope this helps, enjoy the reading, I sure am :D

OOPs almost forgot about the game

Post by fortunec00kie »

I almost forgot you were looking for the game. This sparked an interest and so I looked for it. A good place to download it is here

http://www.hulla-balloo.com/terry/download.html

Note I am in no way connected to this website I just found it by typing "Usagi Yojimo C64 Rom" in the google.ca search engine.
They have the Rom version of the game, the Rom emulator you need to play it, as well the guy did a little demo of the game for windows as he is trying to convert it.

Enjoy,

The inside back cover of the upcoming Usagi trade collection (The Shrouded Moon) will list all the books (from Fantagraphics and Dark Horse) with book numbers and titles.

Jean-Marc Lofficier suggested I do this and both Diana and I thought it was a wonderful idea. We should have done this years ago.
