I'm tempted, might soon join you in that club...
even though I've barely played the JPN version I bought on release

I have to wait until I start my job and get some money, but I'm definitely getting this for my PSTV.

I think LANCARSE did pretty good in a lot of "core stuff" in this game, but if you have to choose only one, I'd say go for Cyber Sleuth because Cyber Sleuth 2 needs to happen and Media.Vision's work on CS was awesome.
If they remove any sound tracks, you'd have series with no music at all, LOL.
Custom soundtrack has a big usability problem.

I'll fix it up when I get home. Still has lots of trash since it was made before/during updates.

Free Battle and Course Battle (Arcade) are only available in updates. 1.02 and 1.03 respectively.
They are under the Extend Mode.
Is the update out for the US version?
It's possible my PSTV is screwed up and needs to be factory reset.

US version comes with ALL JPN updates and DLC. By all rights yes it should be there.
You have to update it separately. It's not bundled in the initial download. Go 'home' on the Vita and you should see the orange update bubble on the game page.
Re: soundtrack removal, I mentioned the DW Gundam games. They just replaced the soundtrack wholesale with some other generic music. The Dragonball games also used to do that (not sure if they still do, haven't paid attention for a few years)--Japanese versions have songs from the anime, English versions get something else. I'm not familiar with other licensed anime products that might have also done this, so it's nice that they at least kept some of the original Gundam series tunes in the English version of Force.

I've been saying that the update bubble isn't showing up on the game page for me, but thanks for confirming there should have been one there.
I guess something is wrong with my PSTV after doing the whitelist hack a long time ago.
Edit: Got the update after downloading the entire bundle from the store page instead of the download list.

Oh wow, I completely forgot this was coming out in the US on the 12th. I even have $40 worth of PSN credit sitting in my account. The only downside is I have very little video game time these days and what time I do have I have been playing Overwatch on the PC with a friend.
Will probably pick this up at some point in the future though. Handheld Gundam localized on the Vita is too good an opportunity to pass up.

Totally missed that this was released. Kinda torn, I want to buy it just to support the western release of Gundam games, but the impressions from the Japanese launch were pretty terrible, and the few reviews for the western release aren't very good either.
