I am starting to believe we might have to rely on a fan translation on Graces. When Vesperia and ToS2 were brought over; it didnt take long to announce a localization.

Give it more time. If by July or August you don't hear anything then that means it probably won't come over

Vesperia and Symphonia: DotNW were announced in the February before they came out in North America. I'm sure Graces will see the same treatment if it gets localized.

They were also announced in Japan before the FebruaryMarch (it's one of those moths) time period that they announce Tales games for the US, because they were set for release in the summer in Japan. Graces was announced for Japan in April, AFTER the general Tales of time frame. Just wait til March before getting concerned. My money says it's coming this summer.

 

[darkwings]

I hope you guys are right. The Wii desperately need some good rpgs.

 

[Clevinger]

So, is there pretty much no chance of Vesperia PS3 being localized now?

 

[darkwings]

I think no. It is just like the PS2 version of Symphonia.

 

[Bel Marduk]

Wait until Feb-April. I hope it does though. I'd like to play ToV PS3 whenever I end up getting a PS3...

Also, I wouldn't worry about ToG localization. It's 3D on a console and not a port, the game has an English theme song and BoA hasn't done an English song for a long time, and the card minigame consists mainly of localized games. Too many hints. Just gotta wait for the Feb-April announcement.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

Logical part of my brain says no.

But it's Namco. I wouldn't be surprised at all if they localized Tales of Vesperia and refused to localize Graces

But It's Namco™.

I'm just going to copy/paste this. Saves me the time and effort.

 

[grandjedi6]

The 20th is a Sunday, I guess Monday 21st Weekly Shounen Jump should have the scoop if they are announcing something? Should leak earlier than the event if that's the case.

That issue has already been leaked fully. Also there is no issue the week after due to the holiday break. So the next time Jump could have something would be the January 4th issue.

 

[The Last Wizard]

has graces been announced for the us yet?

 

[xero273]

has graces been announced for the us yet?

no, not yet. Give it a couple more months

 

[The Last Wizard]

no, not yet. Give it a couple more months

excellent, so it's true about the feb-may localization. vesperia ps3 still has a chance:lol :lol

Spoiler

by then black wii should be announced for us also

 

[Vamphuntr]

I think there were rumors about Tales of Vs though because the voice actor for Yuri went to record additional skill names or something like that no?

 

[Bel Marduk]

New suits for the characters part of DLC shown. Not sure if I can post the pic since it comes from part of some scan though. They're awesome though

 

[Kurosaki Ichigo]

Well, a proper announcement seems really unlikely. Maybe just a teaser with no name, developer, platform or character designs. I'd go with nothing though, well other than two hours of popular seiyuus fanservice and on-stage game theme songs.

I'm pretty sure they're going to announce something as they've run out of to-be-released Tales games. Well, not counting the Frog spinoff of course.

 

[Bel Marduk]

I believe the Tales event at Jump Festa is over now, or almost over? Either way we haven't heard anything yet about a possible new Tales.

If that's the case, then I don't think we're going to be hearing about a new Tales until next year sometime.

 

[Bel Marduk]

If that's the case, then I don't think we're going to be hearing about a new Tales until next year sometime.

The series will be getting only 2 games a year from now so maybe we're seeing the beginnings of that. If that's the case all they boasted about at JF was Graces I guess?

 

[Hero of Legend]

About that 2 Tales a year thing, I wouldn't expect a DS game since the Hearts team is doing Keroro right?

And about a not often mentioned, but ever going subject, what about Sword of Legendia? Isn't the producer of Vesperia; Tsutomu Gouda "in charge" of that?

Is he part of the Tales team, or is he an in-house BN employee?

God, that game is the biggest Wii 3rd-party enigma, is this game ever going to show itself? The last update was May this year from the Cubed3 interview and IIRC Adam Riley said the interview was actually done in January?

Nope, Keroro is being supervised by Tales Studio guys but I think it's outsourced. I'd expect a new ToH team game 2010 or 2011 latest I guess? I have no idea since they need to get out a new TS game and also a new Radiant Mythology I guess. Wonder what they'll do.

I do wonder about SoL...my guess is development hell unless they have a reason not to talk about it yet...

 

[grandjedi6]

Well yes, if its not announced at Jump Festa then I'm pretty sure we won't be hearing anything until next year. Unless of course you know of any other big conventions happening in the next week and a half.

only two games a year.

You think Sword of Legendia really exists? Do you also believe that Kirby Wii is still going to release in 2006 2007 2008 2009?

 

[I should be doing hw]

Is this the first 3D Tales game the Hearts team has made? I hope they make more in the future, something about Graces just clicks with me.

First 3D Tales that Team Destiny made. Hearts was made by a collab of Destiny and Symphonia people.

That's pretty much the very thing I was implying, only with 200% less snark.

My bad, team Destiny. Any word on what they are doing next?

 

[Bel Marduk]

Um...well they just got done with Graces We're gonna have to wait until late 2010/early 2011 to hear what they're doing next. For now let's just wait for a localized Graces

 

[I should be doing hw]

Ok then. Well I still have yet to play Abyss so I may as well crack that open in the mean time. Dub or Undub, that is the question.

 

[DR2K]

VA is good for the dub.

Jade's sarcasm comes off waaaaay better in a language you can understand.

 

[adamsapple]

VA is good for the dub.

but the skits are text only

 

[mugwhump]

OK Namco here's what we can do:

Localize Graces, but DON'T bring over ToV PS3

That way I get Graces, and you fulfill your annual quota of pissing off fans

It's win-win!

 

[lucablight]

Jade Curtiss is the best Tales of character.

 

[Datschge]

He's a NBGI employee (thus worthless). He is a "general manager" for like all Namco games starting around ToV, his role or position is nothing specific to the Tales series at all.

new costumes for Vesperia PS3 and Graces

 

[Geneijin]

Ok then. Well I still have yet to play Abyss so I may as well crack that open in the mean time. Dub or Undub, that is the question.

Played both. The dub is pretty solid actually. But voiced skits only available in undub so your choice really.

Repede - ?
Karol - Klonoa
Patty - Some Mr. Driller character whose name escapes me
Estelle - Valkyrie
Yuri - ?
Flynn - Chopin
Rita - Idolmaster character?
Judith - KOS-MOS
Raven - Heihachi?

Patty is Mr. Driller himself, and Yuri is Mitsurugi from Soul Calibur. Raven is Heihachi, yep.

I hope we get the Frog spinoff. And Namco could man up and localize some of the other Tales games. There is 3 for the DS, 2 for the PSP, and I am sure the ToD remake could be ported to something else if they really don't want to put it out for the PS2 to boot.

Come on Namco release the PS3 version in US... Please.

http://blog.playstation-cs.jp/201005/article_96.html

Tales of Unitea (Tales of Unitia) was one of the alternate names for Tales of Graces when Namco was registering its trademarks, so I have my doubts about this rumor. Just because it originates on 2ch doesn't mean there is any reason to believe it.
