Seriouisly, I am damned proud of this game and all of the people that poured their effort into it. If there was ever a time to get a Vita, it's this holiday season!

...says the guy whose wallet is drained after finally buying a 360. -__- I'm saving up for a Sig Sauer, so yeah... but goddamn that Assassin's Creed Liberation White Vita bundle looks so tempting.

But I guess only Mew can say for sure.
I feel like we spend an inordinate amount of time trying to make Japanese in-jokes and puns somehow work in English. But when we hear the reactions from the fans, it's totally worth it. The editor who managed to work the "AWWWWWWWWWW YEAAAAAAHHHHH" meme into one of the DS Devil Survivor games and then have that made back into a meme image by a fan was incredibly pleased with himself.
I was in the same position as y'all once; enjoyed the hell out of P3's localization even having played most of the Japanese version.

One of the cool things about my job has been finally knowing people IRL who share some of my lesser-known interests. Not to toot my own horn, but talking to someone who's worked on some of my favorite games ever about my own contributions to the Fate/Zero and Fate/hollow ataraxia amateur translations was fun for both parties. (like "Yeah! I always wondered how we could say that in English, that stupid Nasu and his stupid made up words")
See? In a way, the feelings of Beast's Lair have made their way to Atlus!

For a lot of us, there are always games that we'd love to see made in English, but that we ourselves don't think it's worth doing a commercial localization for a lot of practical reasons.

    I was going to get my hands on the solid gold edition and keep it safe until I get my hands on a vita, but it ran out of stock the day it went up for pre-order. I cried.

    I'm hoping to net one of them when they eventually come out for us PAL folk, I'll hopefully have a system by then too.

    I'm buying a Vita for this.

    I was going to do it anyway, but I expected the expense some time next year; not this holiday season D:

    Ah well, whatever. I'm looking forward to this game!

    I don't have a vita.

    I want a Vita for this and Phantasy Star Online 2. *sigh*

    But I also want a 3DS. I probably can only choose one...if I can.
    choices, choices....

    Three reasons why that will never happen.

    1. Your on the Internet.
    2. People are fucking stupid.
    3. YOUR ON THE INTERNET.

    Don't wish for something that'll never happen.

    I bought a Vita, and I will be buying this.

    Actually, I wanted to buy it before, but it was out of stock on Newegg.

    Got my copy on launch. What a slick package! Tons of extras, and really well designed.

    Thank you again to everyone that buys this. Partly because it feels good, mostly because I'm guaranteed several more months of gainful employment.

    Kidding. You people are awesome.

    Pre-ordered. Now, I just have to wait till it arrives, then wait till Christmas to get my Vita.
