I was in local gamestop yesterday and I noticed that the price of atelier rorona and totori has dropped. As the title says it is 19.99 for used copies, 21.49 for new copies, and 29.99 for the special edition. Unfortunantly everything is sold out online, but you can check out which stores have this in stock from gamestops website.

Here is the link atelier rorona -

gamestop.com/browse?nav=16k-atelier+rorona

here is the link for atelier totori -

gamestop.com/browse?nav=16k-atelier+totori

Edit: links don't work and will not work, copy and paste in your browser. Thanks for the heads up whitereflection and wetrix!

I have never played an Atelier game before. Are they JRPGs or? I am interested in them, I just need to know more about the series first.

They are both jrpg games from the same series with the final part of the trilogy coming out next month. Both of them have different main characters, but the take place in the same world. They are made by gust which is the same company that put out the ar tonelico series. They deal with alchemy and I think they are pretty fun. If you remotly like jrpgs I would give them a shot. At this price even if you don't like them you could sell them on ebay or amazon and cut a little profit.

Here are some reviews from rpgamer, they really liked both of them.

I'm gonna try to grab these after work today.

Uh, those links aren't working.

Try this one for Rorona, and this one for Totori.

Haha, yours don't work either.

It's the affiliate auto-parsing.

Yeah, I had to copy-paste the links:

gamestop.com/browse?nav=16k-atelier+rorona
gamestop.com/browse?nav=16k-atelier+totori

Good to snatch these up before they disappear. I think Totori had a smaller print run than Rorona.

That is a weird price for new, but I ain't complaining I shall call around and try to snag both.

Man, I'm still on the fence about getting Totori. Meruru is coming out soon, I still haven't opened Rorona, and I still need to finish Xenoblade.

Picked up a gutted copy of Totori earlier today. I probably wouldn't have spotted it if it wasn't that weird $21.49 price point sticking out like a sore thumb.

Be forewarned that new isn't new. I called six gamestops when I heard about this drop a month ago, all were actually used.

I'm with ya. Since I own Rorona CE, I've been hunting a new copy of the Totori CE.

For those of you (like myself) who like the special editions from what I have heard/read the special edition of Atelier Meruru (part 3) will only be available directly from the NISA store itself. Here is the link if anyone wants it.

Are you sure the CE is exclusive, or just the shirt?

Bah, none near me.

I want to know this as well.. they made it sound like the CE was exclusive but from that page, it looks like it's just the shirt.

Do yourself a favor and play Rorona but don't blast through it. If you are too low level to fight enemies it's almost impossible to get by assignment 10. Try to be around level 30 when you get there, which requires fighting a lot of enemies. This is a huge design flaw that required me to play through the game twice because I couldn't get passed assignment 10 my first try. It's not terribly long even with grinding and it's a great game I just wish someone would have told me this to begin with.

I can confirm that the special edition is only for the nis store. I did not see the special edition listed on amazon so I emailed them yesterday and here is my reply:

Interesting john, that seems to be a first. Generally just trinkets have been exclusive, such as a shirt or poster.

If I had to guess I would say that they decided to do it this way because all of the regular edition copies of the game come with the artbook. Amazon, gamestop, and the nisa store all show the book coming with the regular edition of the game, so technically that makes the ost and shirt the exclusive parts of the game. I'm thinking about getting the special edition and selling the shirt on ebay because I wear a small and the shirt is only in large. I havn't decided if it is worth the hassle for just the soundtrack.
