Knack above Kirby? Kirby doomed in Japan. This makes me  really sad. ;(

- sub-par graphics (looks ridiculous compared to Atelier EschaLogy)

- ultra-poor combat

- linearity

- KILOMETERS of NON-VOICED dialogs (my head was about to explode), far-fetched story

- lack of balance between male/female characters

- tedious progression system

music & artworks are fine though...

Thanks for repsonding.

- I can deal with that even if it is disappointing (especially given how my Escha & Logy pre-order got lost and canceled on me this week)

- Mind elaborating? Is combat simple, or broken or confusing?

- Not that a big of a deal to me

- Only an issue if there is not a way to skip along quickly, like in Hyperdimension Victory if you want

- You mean more of one than the other or balance as in the males are poor and females are great?

- Tedious as in lots of grinding?

- Hey! A positive!

So Knack crossed the 1 million milestone this week?

Battles are too easy and the system is shallow. Neptune V was extremely fun, ARNS is boring to death. I said lack of balance because the girls are always on the back being protected and it bugs me. Tedious because you have to dive into other characters' mind and those secquences are terrible.

So my advice is : find the one who lost your EschaLogy preorder, hit him in nose, and go pick EschaLogy elsewhere because you MUST play it.

SS Delta sales are very good. No Soul Sacrifice owner had any reason to buy it. The upgrade was 1000 yen on psn to regular soul sacrifice owners and free to PS+ subscribers who owned soul sacrifice so that's essentially 50,000 (+digital sales) new owners for what pretty much amounts to an expansion pack.

I think the Vita boost is more from the value pack though. But vita hardware sales really do not seem to correlate with retail software sales.

PSV neck and neck with 3DS in Japan. Never thought I'd see the day. I also thought I'd never see such a bad PS4 number, the video game market really is a funny thing sometimes.

Also, Wii U owners need to wake up and buy DK:TF. Really, people?

Company here called "GoHastings" apparently they had a big run on the preorders so they just canceled a whole bunch of them.

With getting a Vita now I am considering on doing the "Plus" versions of the Atelier games. 

least DK should have had bump in the UK as it was discounted last week. Quite scary for a main Nintendo franchise so close to launch though. I made sure I didn't miss out mind. 60fps HD DK 4tw! :D

Waa, nice bump for the Vita! If just that were the case in the west...
