NCS talked about the release date on their update today...Dec.18th for the Japanese version. No word yet on the US version.
Pretty dumb to go and buy the homecart when you can get a perfect PORT for $60.
*steps away from the flamebait.*
Not really. Remeber this is a JAPANESE release. There hasn't been a very solid mod alternative that ive seen for PS2. None that I would be willing to try anyway for fear of killing my system. So that means buying an import PS2 system JUST FOR ONE GAME. Your looking at $300 for an import PS2, then $60 for the game. So you can pay $360 and wait an extra 2 months for a port, or pay $335 for the Neo Geo version which we know wont have any fuggly resolution or other problems which occasionally happens with ports. (Ive not noticed it being a big deal, but it bothers some. Like the voice lag in MoTW (DC), and resoution problems with KoF2002 (DC)
Now if your into the PS2 import scene, then that might be the best fit for you. Im not. So its actually cheaper, and faster, for me to get the home cart.
A US version probably wont be till spring at the earliest.
