me :) everything i've heard about it sounds awesome so far and its coming out on the 23rd, even at msrp its $34.99 (canadian) so for you americans its probably $29.99 MSRP and you can GGC it down to $24.99+Tax, i think its gonna be awesome (well at least from what the gamespot preview showed linked here http://www.gamespot.com/ds/rpg/magicalvacation2/news.html?sid=6159987&mode=recent) , what do you guys think?

I pre-ordered it in full after talking with a gamestore employee. He told me it's made from ex-Square members during the SNES era and I was sold (I gotta research that though). The early buzz isn't too good though.
But of course... It is a DS RPG, so I have it preordered. Looks like it is getting middling reviews so far, but only two reviews are out (EGM 65/100 and GI 60/100):

This looks like one of those games that I might not mind if GR gets in or not. If they do, I'll pick it up, and if not, I'll get my money back and pick it up later, hopefully, when it is cheaper.
Children of Mana looks to be a tad bit better:

Have it preordered, not thrilled by the reviews so far. But GR will make my decision for me, as io said.

i'll wait out for Gamespot to review it, they're usually fairly accurate

Magical Starsign + Contact + Children of Mana = a pretty excellent B2/G1 haul from TRU.

Reviews and availability at TRU during the B2G1 sale will determine whether or not I pick this up soon.
Magical Starsign + Contact + Children of Mana = a pretty excellent B2/G1 haul from TRU.
Assuming you can find the first two. And Children of Mana doesn't come out until a week or two after the sale is over.

I'm still waiting on more reviews. I'm thinking this could be the third game in the B2G1 sale along with Clubhouse Games and Contact. A little disappointed in the reviews from this and Contact, though, for how promising the previews were. Of course, there's been plenty of games before that I really enjoyed that got average reviews and games with great reviews that I couldn't get into, so you never really know.

they also make mother 3 and Sword of Mana.
