No, no, it doesn't have English. It's just that, if you want it for collection purporses you can get that and emulate or play the English version in other way because it's not as horribly expensive ^^u

I haven't looked in awhile but I think CT on DS was sitting around $20 or so, and a second hand DS isn't much different than that.

:cry: Today was the last day Duck Donuts in Avon was opened for the season. Business has been incredibly slow and it's been hard to justify staying open. And this is on top of being laid off, albeit partially, from Oceanas Bistro. The "partially" part comes from popping in a few days after my last day to get my last check and they offered me a shift on Halloween night, since they were down a person and needed someone to wash dishes.

But today the assistant manager from Food Lion, literally just on the other side of the parking lot, popped in and asked us if we wanted to work at Food Lion. And after going over there (after going back home and showering and changing my clothes), I talked to the assistant manager and...


:D I GOT A NEW JOB!!!! Starting on the 27th I'll be the new after-hours stocker! Basically I'll be working after the store closes, which works well with my night owl habits, especially since it pays $11/hour!

Cheapest legit none digital option would be Final Fantasy Chronicles if you have PS1-3 not sure if there are any issues with the port though. FF Chronicles is still sub $20 new most places since they printed a ton of them plus it included FFIV.

DS Version is also solid but has bumped up in price recently to $30-40+.

I ended up doing that at Kohl's for a little while. It can be kinda nice, outside of the flipped schedule for seeing friends/family.
