Anyone could have made that list.

I will keep a moderate optimism. I want Innocence too though.... but beggars cant be choosers i suppose. It would be good already if Hearts R made it over.

I too would love both, but I'd rather have Hearts first.  Story is supposedly better; combat is refined; graphics are better.  It seems like the better game all round.  Get that one out first and see how it does, and if it's a success, Sony or Namco can handle Innocence R at a later date.

 

And regarding the news, might as well copy my comment from Official Vita thread/NISA forums:

I was on the verge of importing this & Innocence R and just playing through and enjoying the gameplay and using the translated script to try and understand the story (seriously, I enjoy the combat in Tales so much I reckon I'd enjoy the whole game for that alone).

However, I'm holding off until the summer just to see what became of the whole #JRPGVita campaign, since Hearts R was the big winner in that.

If it is actually getting localized... omg... day 1!
