Well, if you understand Japanese, I see no reason why you shouldn't import.

That and you'll help me out in the process.....

Were sales really that poor for 360 Vesperia that Namco decided not to bring the PS3 version to the West ?
Maybe they wondered if it would flop badly like Eternal Sonata PS3...

I would assume after the sales of their own Tekken 6 that they'd realize the 360 is not a good barometer for the sales of Japanese games in the west, let alone franchises that have traditionally appeared on PlayStation platforms.

But I think Namco's weak record of localizing games has more to do with the gutting of their NA branch a few years back than anything else.  These days, all you see from them are Tekken, Naruto, DBZ, and Gundam games.  Anything else ain't making it over.  I don't think they have the manpower for much else.  It sucks they refuse to let smaller publishers like Atlus handle their IPs, though.

And it's incredibly ironic that Namco picked up the publishing rights for Demon's Souls in Europe.  They refuse to handle their own well-recieved though niche RPGs, but they'll gladly pick up Sony's niche RPG.


Demon's Souls>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>any tales game that has released or will be released

?...no buddy demon souls doesnt compare to alot of tales games though it is a great game.


When you're wrong, you're wrong. And you're wrong.


lol

Why compare Demon Souls to Tales of? One is an ARPG more western style than Japanese, with dungeon crawling as its main attraction; another one is pure Japanese RPG, with anime cut scenes and epic story as its attraction. Both are great in their own right.

PS3 needs more RPG from diverse genres: JRPG likes Tales of and Persona , ARPG and dungeon crawler like Demon Souls, SRPG like Valyria Chronicles, MMORPG like DC Universe Online and WRPG like Dragon Age. My next dream after Tale of series is for Mass Effect (shooter RPG??) to become cross-platform since Bioware just announce their ambition to sell more than 10 millions, they surely need to cross-platform to achieve that.

Of course a new bug-free version of Graces will sell better on PS3. And of course it will be because the Wii audience doesn't play real games. Not because the Wii version had game crippling bugs.

PS4: 60-65m
WiiU: 30-35m

Dunno if this is old news but

"The game's art designer, revealed Baba, is Daigo Okumura, who did character designs for Wii's Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World. The game's character designer and theme song artist will be decided from here on out."

They also ruled out the name Unitia for the new Tales game...they did say however that

Closing off his introduction to the PS3 game, Baba said "Using the visual technology that we've accumulated, we will make a title that we would not be ashamed of calling a 15th anniversary game. We'd like to retain the good points of the series and include new play elements to create a title like never before."
