Its inly available as a patched iso

Back in stock at 39.99 if anyone's still interested.

Edited the title. Thanks FatherChesz.

Semi off-topic. Anyone try out EX Troopers? It's $40 on 3DS and its not getting localized.

And there is a petition to remove region locks on digital media if you would like to support:

It's like the high school version of Lost Planet. You're a kid that's being bred to be part of NEVEC's next line of soldiers. Expect the usual cast of anime characters in the roster. Main character with a secret power, pretty boy that's surrounded by girls, nerdy girl with glasses that lusts for the main character, fat girl that eats a magical snack to get skinny so the main character notices her, etc.

Granted I only played the PS3 version, but AdmiralVic and I both got platinums in it. The game is pretty simple and easy to run through in a week. Online co-op is a separate affair and has about 40-some missions ranging from stupidly easy to a 10-round battle royale versus every enemy and boss in the game.

is this based off the movie?

Oh damn, I'm going to have to buy this.

Excellent, I can keep my LE in the box sealed

Hot freakin' damn! This is awesome news. Now I wonder if we'll get the same bonuses that Japan got. That'd be awesome.

I actually picked up the regular edition almost 2 weeks ago for 30 dollars, and then a few days later they're selling the LE for an extra 10. What a dick move on Play-Asia's part. :/ And then a few days after that (today), I find out the game's getting localized, but I was expecting that anyway because this sort of thing has happened before. Play-Asia's just clearing out stock like crazy because they're worried they're not gonna sell these anymore after today. Well, they didn't really need to worry about that in my case, since I only own a Japanese 3DS.

I should point out that limited editions aren't actually worth a damn in Japan. So if you wanna keep it sealed because you think it looks cool, that's fine, just don't expect a major return on your investment someday. If you're ever in Akihabara, you'll see.

It actually isn't.

I'm not too worried. I'm a collector for the most part

Yes, PS2 games are all region locked. You can load up a memory card with some software to soft-mod it (& I think maybe a USB flash drive too) though, which would work just fine for your game backups. I've done it with my Beet the Vandel Buster & DQ VIII JP-region games. Works like a charm, & none of that quick-swap/ console mod bullshit. I don't think the board allows public posting about softmodding consoles, but I'll PM you about it if you want; only if you have original copies of your games, of course. Same goes for anyone else that's reading this & is interested, I guess.

STOP THIS GAME IS BEING LOCALIZED!!!!!

Localized-schmocalized; Special edition of a JP region game that just game out/is coming out for forty bucks? Come on.

Then again, I don't have a 3DS ;'

As has been said already, Collector's Editions of Japanese games don't have much of a resale value. You'd be lucky to get $5 profit.

yeah the game is coming here! Was about to get this and import a 3ds, now I don't have to
