NOnone of the big sales have ever discounted any of these games.
Meruru+ and Totori+ have both been on sale for $19.99 before.

forgot to mention that buying it within the first month gets you the Strawberry Swimsuit, Modern Girl, Little Garnet & Bride Sapphire, White Diamond, Passion Cloth and Flower Band for free, I'm not sure what they look like, but it's practically guaranteed that they won't be sold separately

I think it was 19.99 for the previous Plus editions and 17.99 with PS+ subscription. Also with some free DLC stuff included.
I'd need to double check, but havent all the other "Free at launch" costumes ended up being sold seperately? Any particular reason it wouldnt be the case here?

It's a ton of audio files.
don't think so. i remember totori had the bonus dlc, and if you look up the game on psn there's no dlc at all, just the game.
sucks since i didn't have a vita when totori plus and meruru plus launched
Atelier Ayesha Plus online survey posted on Gust's facebook page.
http://www.gamecity.ne.jp/form/atelier-ayesha-p_eu
Everyone should fill up the survey and in the comments ask for Atelier Chibi Rorona for 3DS to be localized as close as the JP release as possible and for more Chibi Atelier games to be made.

I think Meruru and Rorona Plus have the bonus costumes available to buy now, not sure though as I cant find a listing of what the bonus costumes initially were

I asked for that and also for Ar nosurge plus, I wonder if that's ever going to come out over here...
And Escha plus, I NEED that game as soon as possible.

Phew, thanks!
So yeah, I just spent over an hour typing up lengthy responses to each of the categories and then editing them because I kept going over the maximum character limit. Hopefully they help make the games better in some way.
Also, I probably got a little out of hand with this question:
What band/artist's music would you like to hear in future Atelier games?
My answer:
Hiroyuki Sawano/SawanoHiroyuki[NZK],
Mika Kobayashi,
Cyua,
Emi Evans,
Aimee Blackshleiger,
Kokia,
Mio Sakuraba (Composer Motoi Sakuraba's daughter. Though she hasn't sung since Eternal Sonata/Trusty Bell's Xbox 360 release)
Hey, they asked.
At least I didn't list improbable artists like Celtic Woman/Lisa Kelly (who's no longer part of group and teaches singing classes in the USA now, I believe.)
edit: Well, Mio might be improbable since she hasn't sung for her dad or anybody for years. Might not be a career she wants. And I forgot to add Sarah Àlainn (sung Xenoblade's and Time Travelers' ending songs) to that list. xD

The only time I've seen them on sale was during Golden Week sale last year... I grabbed them then because I didn't think they'd be on sale again anytime soon.
I might update my Vita for this and say screw it to possible homebrew... but then again, not sure I want to spend another $40 on an Atelier game I likely won't finish (nearly finished Totori, failed, restarted and didn't finish, Meruru I started but didn't get too far in before being burnt out).
why would you not ask for Ciel Offline
What kind of future game(s) would you like to see from Gust and Koei Tecmo? (3,000 characters max.)
More Ar Tonelico.
PC/Steam ports of Atelier.
For any other comments, please fill in below. (3,000 characters max.)
Seriously, Steam. Do it. I'll buy 20.

The thread subtitle is wrong BTW
Ayesha is the first game of the Dusk trilogy. Arland was the previous trilogy.

I like to stay realistic, I also already read the long as fuck summary.

Soo I bought Atelier Ayesha on PS3 from PSN at one point in the past year when it was on sale for a fairly good price. I still haven't managed to play it.
I'm just wondering, since I got a PSTV that I like using, is there enough new content in this version to consider getting and playing this version instead? Not really considering price, just at some point, should I just try to play this one instead?

this is a hard question to answer without knowing if you even like Ayesha, play the PS3 version and see how it sits with you, if you fall in love with it then the Vita version is worth a purchase
Oh don't do this to me, I play each Atelier game about 3-4 times already, and having them on Steam would mean to play them another 3-4 times, but with a good framerate!
I did complain on one of the answers that the framerate was usually shit even in PS3, and that I hoped that the PS4 games would at least be solid 30 fps.
I was thinking on listing artists too, but then I just said more insert songs by all the VA.

Hopefully in about 3 months they will be again.
I filled it out and asked for the 3DS Atelier Rorona game. I also asked for that Otomate Atelier game that was on PSP, because it's nice to have dreams.
Could people filling this up also ask them to release the game (Atelier Ayesha Plus, English version) in Asia?

Yeah these were on facebook
Love the Waifu Ayesha though. Hope they sell these separately later, cam't justify dropping the 40 to get it now when I paid full price when the ps3 game came out.

You live in Asia? Did the other plus games release over there in English?
I read it, but then I got to the bottom of that post and your monstrous face erased all my memories of what I had read.
Really though, I don't get it. Only hint I got is that the thread was made by CureVylash, who didn't like Atelier Ayesha, but likes the Arland games. So I guess the joke is... no, I don't get it.

This kinda makes me wanna get it just cuz those outfits are so cute XD
Yup, Singapore here.
We get the Japanese versions same week as Japan, and the English versions the same week as US and EU for the past few releases (Estsa and Logy, Ayesha, Shallie, Meruru+ and Rorona+). We even got a Chinese version of Shallie recently.
Totori+ (Eng ver) took months though. So basically things were good after 2013, apart from being unable to unlock bonus costumes due to Totori+ being the "EU" version and Meruru+ and Rorona+ being the "US" ones, so the games don't recognize Totori+ and refuse to unlock my bonus costumes. (Also, we never get any sales on them, but that's another matter entirely)
But now for some strange reason we don't have Ayesha+, even though we have Ayesha (Eng) on PS3 and Ayesha+ (Jap) on VIta.
Edit: asking KT (asia) customer support gave me this:

Hmm, weird that this isn't out over there then. I wish you luck. Hopefully it'll be released there eventually like Totori was.
edit: Hey, cpooi, do you know their email address? I'll ask them too. Maybe they'll bring it out sooner if they see more of us asking them. lol
Honestly, their Asia customer support is worthless. See the nonsense I posted about the bonus costumes stuff on the Plus versions? They didn't know a thing about it, and it took them a month to acknowledge it, and ended with a "we will try to ensure it won't happen again" without any fix.
In any case, here is their CS email: service@koeitecmo.com.tw
Edit: Asking the US and EU branches always end with them saying they don't deal with Asia.
Edit2: I really want it out ASAP as the upcoming 10% discount for PSN is probably my only chance to grab it at anything other than full price. Atelier games never go on sale in Asia.

That stinks.
Well, I sent an email anyway. Any little thing to bug them to look into it. Good luck.

pfft no one hates my gorgeous mug
I meant that OP admitted there was an error in the title
Honestly speaking? I feel the only Plus that's ever been warranted on extra gameplay content would be Rorona, because of the extra endgame added which also pays homage to the two sequels. That being said if you're a diehard fan or looking to revisit, the other Plusses are worth looking at.
Ayesha is also in this other situation where the Plus version, while not as extensive as Rorona in content, adds in JP voices, which was absent from the original English release and a big minus for people who cared about that stuff.
A bit on the fences to double dip considering I did for Rorona and Meruru plus but never finished them. But since I played with English voice... I want to hear Marina Inoue's voice! ( I also loled when I saw her name on the US PS3 opening )
edit: oh and bride Ayesha is love <3
