    That's the first thing you are going to hear from the shopkeeper in the GSW.
    Yes, that's right, the shop I talked about earlier has been completed. You are able to buy and sell items. He's all about making profit though, so don't expect any good deals when selling him stuff. Although I think I overheard some conversations the other day, about shopkeepers giving more money in special circumstances...

    Anyway, another interesting feature that has been implemented succesfully is the "trade" system. Well, actually, it only works as a one-way trade at the moment. It basically allows you to give an item from your inventory to someone else in the same room. Pretty neat if I might add.

    Now for some bad news: still nothing in the mini-game department. I'm really afraid we're only going to have one or two single-player mini-games when the GSW is going public for the first time. But don't be afraid, we'll keep updating the game after releasing it.

    Expect more and more information as we get closer to the initial release date!

    Take care.

      LOL, it sounds like Barkeep in FFX-2, just more english, if you never played FFX-2 he says "Mish Yuna, what I do for you" or something.

      Anyways, glad to hear, I think the progress is going very well.

              Ugh don't compare golden sun to pokemon. It's depressing. In any case, this trader guy seems like a bit of a cheap guy / cgc.

                This technically isn't a Golden Sun game, to me it just looks like an online game with a Golden Sun theme, but anyhoo. Cheap people are funny. XD I wonder if all the shopkeepers will be cheap.

                  AveneR kinda made a big deal about it, but in truth it is very similar to how the shop owners in GS and TLA work. Anything you sell is worth less than what you bought it for. That's the same way the shops in GSW are working right now.

                    Okay, that's what I thought. So they're basically cg shopkeepers.

                      Hehe, yeah, but it just sounds better if you turn it into something just a little more creative than the usual technical stuff. Anyway, yeah, it works like the shops from GS but the most important part is: it works ^_^

                      Take care,

                            GSW has it's own website. O o There is an FAQ that will tell you everything.
