This game comes out in a couple weeks.

I just looked at some vids on youtube and it looks great not to mention the art is fantastic, kinda reminds me of advance wars in a way.

Just a heads up for anybody who doesn't know about it. Its an atlus title and looks to be one of there best last releases on the GBA.

Check it out.

This game does look good. I really don't buy many GBA games anymore but I will keep an eye on this one.

I have been looking forward to this for the past month (thought it was coming out in Oct). Definitely getting it as soon as it comes out. Probably my only Nov purchase, along with Super Robot Taisen Original Generation 2. That will keep me busy till January at least.

I think this might be the unofficial sequel to Riviera. I could be wrong. Atlus is really pulling out all the stops on the GBA. It's nice to see the GBA is good to the end.

Been waiting for the English release for some time now.

I guess it'll pay off. :)

i am picking this up for sure, if for no other reason than to encourage Atlus to keep releasing games like this. -cough-Summon Night 3-cough-

Been playing the Jpn version on my flash cart...took forever for me to actually figure out how to get to actual gameplay...which leads me to my next question. What is it you actually DO in this game??? The battles seem to be very "hands off", even for a strategy game. I'm sure I'll find more meat on its bones in the US version....but I am still curious as to how deep the gameplay actually is. The art is gorgeous though.

Well it's out. I saw it at GS tonight and came really fucking close to buying it.

Anyone throw down on it?

yep, got it Friday. I'm about 3 hours into it. Takes a while to get rollin'. Lotta' reading...and its of the Japanese RPG/makes no sense variety....so I end up speed reading through most of it. But I just now got to where you can start using card skills and the environments are starting to get bigger and actually affect battles.

I really didn't "get" this game at first when I started playing it. So, if anyone downloads the ROM to try....give it at least until battle 5 or 6 before making a judgment on it. I seriously can't put it down.

I vaguely remember hearing it was the unofficial sequel to Riviera. Is it anything like it?

I never finished Riviera, and I can't say if the "universe" the games take place in are different or not. I see zero characters or similarities to Riviera though. Nothing at all like Riviera honestly outside the art style.

Ok. I might pick this up when I finish Rocket Slime.

played an hour or so last night. I think I'm on battle 7....they should rename this game to CRACK COCAINE or something to that effect.

Yea, I saw this game when I was picking up Castlevania POR. Looked tight. Some dumbfuck at Gamestop said "Yea, it's made by the same folks who made Disegea". I'm going, ummm no it's not. I swear, just give me a Shasta can in a tube sock and I'll beat the crap out of him in a spray of bloody carbonated hell.

Yep. Atlus is only a publisher. I would think EB employees would know the difference.
