That's a whole lotta gaming in one package. Pretty cool.
 
Took that long for the official English version to come out? :messenger_astonished:

The Asia version has English text and has been available since April 2023.

Nope, there was an ESRB release, but it sold out in minutes on the Square Enix Store, so most people didn't have a chance to order an ESRB copy.

The only version which was reprinted was the Asian Multi-Language for the Switch (the one you mention in your post), leaving those on PS4 out of luck...
 
Already got the Asian English release from Play-Asia but good news for people who didn't want to pay the ridiculous eBay prices
 
Garbage ports with unbearable shimmering. Font is barely tolerable (the retro one they patched in, not the horror that is the original font). I would have liked for someone to tell me this back then before I import the Asia version. Thankfully it was on Switch and I could sell it back at the price I had bought it.

Avoid.

I'd really like the GBA versions of I II IV V and VI to be added to the NSO though.

Great to hear it's coming to retail because right now it costs about 120 dollars for an imported copy. Grabbing it for Switch.

EDIT: October is gonna be an expensive month. Silent Hill 2 and Ys X: Nordics are getting releases too. Welp!

Anyone else have feedback on these criticisms? Because I was initially floored by this as a physical cart release and not many games do that to me anymore...

Multi usually implies more than 2.





PS4, Switch = Multiple.

Never mind that it is also releasing on PC. Xbox not being included doesn't mean this is an exclusive release.
Still not sure why people thought SE ending exclusivity meant anything other than releasing all titles on PlayStation, Nintendo, and PC. Xbox doesn't sell games it's just a gamepass machine.

Play-Asia has it for $80. You can buy it on Amazon US or eBay for $90. Cost dropped a bit.
 
I've never ordered from them before. When do they typically charge for shipping on pre orders? At time of order? If so I gotta wait till tomorrow lol
They charge at the time of the order. So yeah, make sure you have enough funds on the payment method you're using.

Oh, and I think I've made about 6 purchases from them in the past 6-8 months, and everything went smoothly.
 
Okay, but will they fix the stuttering for this release?

No. Of course they won't. It's still trash until they do.

It would be nice but I doubt Square is in any rush to give the rights to those games when they can sell their collection like this. I agree the Dawn of Souls content would be pretty cool to have had in the pixel remasters. Can't comment on III, IV, V but at least for I and II DoS is supposedly the definitive version of the game.
