So, if anyone else here is into the 'niche' type of games from Nippon Ichi and/or like to buy/collect/re-sell their awesome (and *almost always*) soon to be rare & valuable money-making Limited Editions for those who thought to pre-order several extra sealed, LE's...
"Mugen Souls"
...is now available for pre-order directly from NIS America's on-line store in 3 'flavors':
"The Mugen Souls PS3 - Limited-Edition + figurines" set:
...is going for $99.99 and includes game, hardcover art book, ost, collector's box, "Shampuru bath set" (hand-towel & sponge), and the "Mugen Souls Nendoroid Petite set) (2 or 3 of them; I believe)
"The Mugen Souls PS3 - Limited-Edition""
...is going for $64.99 and includes all of the above *EXCEPT* the figurines, and
"The Mugen Souls Standard Edition":
...is $49.99 and just includes the game & the OST...

I'll probably just go for the standard set, maybe the limited edition since the box is cool. I'm not very much into figures (despite the bunch of mario figures I have in front of my TV....) so the extra 35$ for the figures isn't really worth it to me. Also, I hope those become available elsewhere, as in EBgames.ca or amazon.ca, just because I like having free shipping.

Check-out NISA's on-line store - I believe that they *DO* offer Free-shipping...
(Although, that may be "US only"; not sure).
-
Yeah, it's US only. It's not as high of a shipping rate as other stores I've tried, but if I can save that extra 11$ I'll do it :P

I don't blame you...I'd do the same :P

Just looked at the store again, they are listing the limited editions as"exclusive"... guess I'll have to get it there then.

Was this a game that you were already interested in getting, anyways?
-
Yeah. Even though they're not always great, I still enjoy the quirky RPGs that NISA publishes, and this one actually looks really fun.

Pre-ordered. :)

Pre-ordered. :)
Which one?
???
-
I pre-ordered this too. 1 LE w/figurines, 1 regular LE.

Just the regular LE I can't cough up the 99.99 for the other. :(

And this was just delayed to October 16th. Seems a lot of games are getting similar delays recently. Like Ragnarok Odyssey which was also just delayed to October. Ah well, gives me more time to play Borderlands 2 :p

Yeah - saw about Mugen's delay in today's Prinny Bomb.
I *think* that Legasista was released yesterday (on PSN)...anyone here get/getting it?
-
Yup, I did despite the higher price point than I was expecting.
It's really fun. It has some similarities to the Cladun games, but the overall gameplay, leveling and customizing feels pretty different. I say it's worth checking out.

Yeah, I've read 3 or 4 reviews for Legasista...and they have been 7 to 8 scores.
While I'm glad to hear that, I'm still waiting until I can learn/verify more about, *exactly*, how the combat works.
So far, I've been fine w/ being able to play all of NISA's turn-based RPG's and SRPG's one-handed.
However, from what I've read, Legasista appears to be more of an Action RPG than it does a turn-based one :(
I take it that you've already given it a try then, Jobocan?
If so, what do you think about its 'one-handed' playability?
Also, I'm not aware that it started-out at a higher price-point...how much is it going for?
Thanks!
:)

It's 30$, which I consider high for a downloadable game.
Don't really know about one-handed gameplay though, it's not something I have personal experience with (other than getting my ass kicked at fighting games by a guy who plays with one hand). I think it might be tough since you need all the face buttons and shoulder buttons and both analog sticks (or d-pad instead of the left stick), but again I have no idea.
To describe the gameplay... It's a dungeon crawler in the style of stuff like Azure Dreams, but the combat is completely action-based, kinda like Link to the Past but faster paced.
(note: I hate writing posts on my iPod >_<)

Thanks Jobocan - that's pretty much what I figured.
You're right, though...$30 does sound pretty high.
