Good news for those living outside Japan, Steins;Gate for the PC is now downloadable online at http://www.melonbooks.com/. With the unofficial english translation patch soon to be released, this is a great opportunity to purchase the game at a lower price (3150yen 41$ USD). You also won’t have to pay for shipping or go through the hassle to import the game from Japan.
Steins;Gate for the PC is the original game the anime was based off of. The anime version has many scenes missing due to time constraints, and the PC version also has multiple endings (for each of your favorite heroine) based on the decisions you make. For those who may have not seen Steins;Gate the anime yet, it is recommended to play the game version first, as it has much more details about each character and explains the story in greater depth.

I just wanted to thank whoever it was that posted this guide, it was a big help. After struggling with Amazon.jp and seeing how expensive the game was to buy on other sites, I was about to give up. Then I came across this guide, and now I finally have a copy of the game on my HDD. Thanks!
before I buy it, I want to ask
I can download the game more than once,right?
let’s say the download have been cut by mistake. I can re-download it?

Does it have DRM or similar shit like that?
Does it work on 64-bit computers? I’ve heard people say it doesn’t, but I’ve heard other people say it does.
It ran fine on my 64bit PC
