A pokemon game they buy and play for a hundred hours.
VF5R they pay 100yen for every credit, in adition to that they pay for acces to VF.net. If they decide not to pay for VF.net they pay another 100yen for a few minutes of customisation at one of the live terminals available at arcades where they can customise their ingame personas.
Its a weird mixture of the best versus fighting game ever and the need to feel different from the pack, mixed with the pitfalls of MMORPG`s.
If you havent witnessed the phenomenon in Japan it is hard to understand but it does have an insane draw to it.
