XSEED is awesome at bringing over quirky titles (Which is the whole point of their existance, but still they are exceptional at this.)

Wasn't this released like... months ago? Or at least it was here in the U.K


Also, I'm inferring from ishiki's post that NoA skipped on this, so they've again just slipped a little in my opinion.

you are correct. 

However, It was published by namco bandai in japan. NoE just published it in Europe. So it's not quite as annoying as say, xenoblade. 

I should have waited for this version. XSEED probably did a better work with the translation, and that cover art is just plain better than the european one.

I had not heard of this game until 4 days ago; now I feel that I MUST play it

hm, looks good actually!

got to check this out, thanks for the info
