Where to buy (new) Divi-Dead?

Visual Novel Community Archive, 2000-2009

I’ve recently decided I need to start buying all the bishÙjo games I’m interested in. As such, I now need to try finding one of the first I played; Divi-Dead. However, I read here that C’s Ware apparently closed down, and unfortunately, I also always have to buy everything new and unused. Anyone knows of a reliable place, where I should be able to find it?

Also, does anyone who has bought this title before, remember if the new, unused copy they got, was sealed in plastic? Due to a dirt “phobia” I have, I cannot buy anything, unless it’s guaranteed to be clean.

Thanks in advance.

I managed to get a new, sealed copy of the game from this site awhile back - but I’m not sure if they still have the game.

http://www.animecastle.com/

www.himeyashop.com still has it in stock (they’re the ones who did the English version)

That's sadly true, but at least their online-shop himeya is still alive and has it, just as SuperDeadite said.

If I recall correctly, it came in a shrink-wrapped CD-case.

Hm, that's sort of disappointing... that it merely comes in a CD case, that is. I would've hoped for a more generous packaging. Still interested in it, though, of course. Good that Himeya had it... it was out on Anime Castle. Didn't Himeya close down, though...?

No they didn't. They just switched to a new URL and remodelled their website entirely.

But it actually has become quite more convenient.
In order to find "DiviDead" you simply have to click the link, SuperDeadite gave you and then enter into the "Quick Find"-box "himeya", press enter and all the still available products C's made for the english market are displayed.

Of course, you may also search for other brands like this, but I suppose you aren't too interested in japanese games.
So, the only other brand that you still might be interested in would be "jastusa"...

Actually, it's a CD-sized white plastic keepcase. It appears more crack-resistant than a CD jewelbox. It's also got a blood-spattered cover with nice artwork. I can't tell you if there's an insert, since I'm leaving mine shrinkwrapped till Halloween. [img]http://princess.cybrmall.net/ubb/eek.gif[/img]

There is a thin manual with the same front cover artwork as the case.

We do have this game in stock at J-List, http://www.jlist.com/ We are the primary people who are keeping it in print. It’s a great game, it’s a shame Himeya didn’t do more with it, or more along the lines of this title.

Peter, do you guys still have Love Potion available? It's not listed on the jlist site.

Just curious, I wanted to go back and pick up the old C's games that I never got before. I was looking for Fatal Relations (which I see you have) and Love Potion.

#11

Love Potion…is not very good. Just warning you.

#12

I dunno. I kinda liked Love Potion. Girls licking each other always make a game bettar

#13

We need more Lesbian Cruise!

(Er, I know that’s not the REAL name of the game, at least I’m pretty sure it isn’t. But I can’t remember what it’s called. Not available in English anyway.)

Exactly. As far as I can figure, you are actually talking about Saphizm no genso.

I have a question. Is this version that is being printed by Peter the same (as in, does it have the same packaging ect) as the original version? Or has the packaging/ copyright info changed?
