Anyone else order from Amazon.ca? Seems I won't be getting the game until a week or so after launch.
same
on the bright side, I complained to a customer rep and managed to upgrade to priority shipping for free, now the est. shipping date is 20th, instead of 21 ! (

Boom. This should be interesting. My first time playing anything like this.
It's the enemy of everyone who likes joy. Or owns a PS product.
All my jealousy and hate. Props to you for getting it early though. I still have 14 1/2 hours.Boom. This should be interesting. My first time playing anything like this.
It's funny, regular shipping tends to be faster for me, since Canada Post tends to deliver stuff around 10am, while FedEx/UPS usually drops things off around 6pm or later. Mostly on Wednesdays in both cases.same)

Got a phone call from gamestop the other day letting me know my copy will be ready tomorrow.
Forgot I also ordered a copy from amazon and they just sent me my tracking number.
Guess I'm ending up with 2 physical copies LOL

Give it to a friend. Share the gift of Life and Hometown.

My copy won't be here until Thursday.
I'm probably about to start grinding levels on Burst to pass the time.
The closer it gets the harder it is to wait.

About to leave out for Gamestop in the next 30 minutes since it is only a 10 minute drive from the house.
Loooooots of shred guitar + Japanese instrumentation. If you watch the character videos that we uploaded to YouTube (the ones linked in the OT), you should get a good idea of what the soundtrack is like, since we used each character's theme song for her video.
I definitely think it's an improvement on Burst's soundtrack.
There's a LOT of story, actually. Not even joking, either -- the Senran Kagura games have more actual, no-entendre-intended plot than they have any right to.

Got an email from Amazon that my copy will arrive on Wednesday. :/
I hope you're not talking about Mirai.
She's a side character in Index that later has the whole anime dedicated to her side of story.
Despite everyone's joke with the plot thing, yes, it has story and it's pretty good.
Now excuse me while I'm sitting here with jealousy watching everyone receive their games.

Just got back from picking up my copy. Will play tomorrow as I am beyond sleepy now. Hope everyone gets their copies soon and we can all enjoy Life, Hometown and über amounts of plot.
Heh, thanks. I really don't have a lot of faith in Amazon right now, so digital seems likely for tomorrow.

Yes, that's pretty standard for an Xseed game. I'm not even surprised at this point, I was already fully mentally prepared to not get it this week.
midnight launches are always fun, now time to not play and go to sleep like a responsible adult.
Here's the quote. You may have to wait a bit (first patch enables it like JP version I suppose?)
It won't be compatible right away, but it should be compatible shortly after release -- there were a few complications with this title that needed to be taken care of.
Akiba's Trip shooooould be compatible from launch, though. Keyword "shooooould."
(Partially because of the touchscreen puzzles, though, I'm afraid Ys Celceta will likely not be compatible at all until we're able to release the patch for it -- which we are looking into.)
-Tom
Akiba and SK both aren't compatible though if you buy japanese version of these game, they are and including Dekamori (whether xseed makes compatible or not, who knows).
Ah, I guess I'll wait, then. Or maybe not, because I'd be happy enough being able to play my PSP games and Persona 4 Golden on my TV. The OLED screen is great and all, but the small size hurts my eyes (and hands) after a while.
It's not up to us, sadly. It's pretty much up to Sony and the original devs.
We're trying as best as we can to get as many XSEED titles compatible as soon as we can, but only Sony knows for sure what is and isn't going to work with the thing, and their info seems nebulous (as evidenced by the fact that Orgarhythm -- a game that's played exclusively with touchscreen controls -- showed up on the first list of compatible titles).
We'll keep you guys updated when we know with absolute certainty which games do and do not work on PSTV. Until we make an official statement, though, don't believe anything shy of "I tested it on my own western-released PSTV and it worked," because there is no definitive info about any of our titles yet. Even the quote from me that Crinale cited is all "maybe"s and "we've been told"s.
-Tom
There isn't a hardware or software (besides the logical X/O change) difference so those with japanese or asian hardware have already tested some of your games and aren't working. We are all aware sony's incompetence on listing, some titles that haven't appeared on vita either and quite a ton of other stuff. The devs should have already implemented from get go(based on japanese release and xseed didn't get latest versions?) and if by sony you mean....a white list to go through? . Well, we don't know.
Is an "license" required for your PSP games to be on PS TV store? Does xseed have to do anything to get them on there or sony decides what goes there?

Any fellow Europeans waiting for the digital release on wednesday?
Missing out on a 144 page book and CD. Amazon.ca had it for $45 for quite some time. There is an unlocking, the book looks nice.
Seems my copy won't ship from Amazon.ca until next week. Sad.
i didn't know the booklet is actually 144 pages. oh well.
told myself to stop collecting all these physical goodies :/

yep
It's all up to Sony. It's a programming thing to some extent (inasmuch as workarounds need to be put in place if there's any touchscreen-exclusive content), but in the end, even a touchscreen-free game won't work on PSTV unless the proverbial PSTV compatibility switch is flipped on, so to speak.
-Tom
I disagree about SAO being more well known than Toaru. Toaru's novels still sell tons and there was a new series of Railgun, Raiilgun S last year <3
