I just got the ability to buy online with a credit card again, so I wanted to know about good online stores from which to buy. I already know of Play Asia (which is the store I've bought more stuff from in the past), Amazon and DVDboxoffice, what other stores can be trusted?

Steam is awesome
http://www.gogamer.com has some pretty good "48 Hour Madness" deals every now and then.

Because no-one plays PC games and Console games.
I didn't realise Amazon and DVDboxoffice were Japanese either.
Seconding gogamer. I've been able to save a decent amount of money on new releases there and the free/cheap shipping is usually very fast. Kinda like newegg before they had the whole 3 day shipping thing (which means 3 days exactly, no less no more).

And you hit the bulls eye! Hehe. The suggestion is still appreciated since I will probably want to buy from Steam, but not right now. My computer is probably not going to be able to run most games.
What kind of games does Good Old Games have? I'll check out GoGamer.
Games that are both good and old.
More serious answer: Mostly earlyish Windows games, with tweaks to work under XP and Vista.
They have Freespace 2, which means anyone with a computer more recent than 1997 or so should pay them eight dollars and buy it.

Bookmark it. Every single one of you. I'm serious-- this is the place to get your games. Easy to buy (just like online shopping) and the shipping isn't bad (it depends on your user, but I usually get mine within a week or so).
Are all european DS game cases transparent?
Why is it so cheap in Shopto.net? I will assume it's because it's a European store and eBay sellers tend to sell over-priced stuff.
They are a fairly big UK based retailer, but also one of the small number that will ship internationally. There are very few Europe exclusive games, but when they do come up, shopto is often the best place to get them from.
£7.99 is pretty much the cheapest DS games ever go for in the UK, maybe £5. RRP for DS games here is like £30, but the currency conversion, international shipping, and PAL rape tax make Tingle's Rupee Land not much cheaper than RRP for USA DS games.
Yes. Aren't the American ones.
LIZ: Different.

American and Japanese DS cases are black, similar to GameCube cases.
Nope. Black.
Plus now I have all these 16-year-old Korean kekekekeke-aholics trying to add me as a friend. Fuck that noise.

Please explain how having a consistent identity across multiple games is a bad thing. I've seen people complain about it on the Steam forums and I don't see anything to complain about. Also, the process of adding someone to your friends list is no different than before.
Also, we have a thread entirely about Steam.
