Hey everybody, as you may or may not have heard, there has been a confirmation by Sega of Japan to release Initial D : Special Stage for the PS2 on March 27th, 2003 in Japan. There has been no word if there is going to be one released in the western countries (United States. Canada, and Europe), so I have made a petition to send to both Sega of America and Sega of Japan that I hope you could sign. I have also made a plea for a X-Box version as well, so if you own either console please take a moment to visit this link.

Any feedback or questions are appreciated and thanks in advance for your support.

Thanks in advance

I went to the Sega.co.jp site and it said Initial D Special Stage is going to be released, June 26th 2003.

Sega Japan - Initial D Special Stage

Japanese.

oh well, now I have longer to save for my PS2!!! it means I have to go without less things in the sort-term!

So I'm guessing the NA release is sometime in July . . . maybe.

really? wow, thats pretty fast. I bet the suckers in Australia will be waiting til 2004 to get a PAL release! Thats if it actually gets a PAL release.

I'm planning on getting the Jap ver. Just waiting till the gets released in June . . . long ways to go . . .

11 more days to the release of PS2 Initial D Special Stage

this game has been annuonced not to come to the states so dont get ur hopes up.im guessin sega is afriad that the arcade game will do poorly if the consoles have it.plus they think ID isnt popular in the states so wont sell good. what the %^$* is that. im goin to cry now in less i mod my ps2.......

There have been rumours that a european version is gonna be released so us canadian/americans might bea ble to order that too ^^ people have been saying that if it is released its gonna be sometime during november (yet i'm not sure if its 2003 or 2004 lol)

unfortunately you can also bet that they won't be offering a Japanese language with english subtitles.

Bah humbug.

not really theyre realesing it witht the series coming out in october...they want a media frenzy so they will....initial d is already selling well and tokyopo is gonna send a preview of the anime with official playstation magazine in sept thats what i hearrd and the game will follow suit

Toshi I love u
<3 have my children?

sweet deal... no need to mod my ps2... tho i kinda wish ID wasn't becoming so mainstream... it's gettin like DBZ or Gundam... which were really good series till everybody and their mom had the stuff... i can see ID lunchboxes and backpacks now... *sigh* oh well... for the greater good... i guess...

po, dont waste bandwith like that.

http://global.yesasia.com/en/PrdDept.aspx/...on-games/did-5/ Check it out. I think the shipping will cost you alot thoguh it be shipped from japan i think.

thatz still jap tho

There was an article in GMR magazine that said that tokyopop is negotiating with some publishers for a US release.

It would be great if it can come North America

sega or tokyopop might just be waiting for the series to hit the selves and see how its accepted. The sad part is that right now with the reviews just about condeming it we'll be lucky if we do see any version.

Question is, what happens if they do the same thing they did to the series and replace the songs with the crap they have in the tricked out version and F*** the storyline (though theres not much that could need changing in the game)?

Could you imagine ID:SS "Tricked out"

If i only had the money i'd just import it.

I just saw on the internet that Initial D Special Stage is coming to North America in October.
