I should know better than post MSRP on the deals page, but I have been waiting for this to appear on GameStop to preorder as Amazon has been sold out for well over a month. There is a limit of one per person and with this being limited to 15,000 copies total across all retailers, you may want to preorder now instead of trying to buy this on the secondary market later. Then again you can risk buying this through Namco and having Digital River process your order.

I wonder if 15,000 is really that rare of a production number for this. Symphonia is my favorite Tales game by far but I can't imagine it's that popular since people rarely mention it when the Tales series comes up.

Can you pay towards online preorders through gamestop?

This was reported about 2 months ago:  http://www.cheapassg...ore/?p=11135218  Glad you got in on one, but 15000 is a lot for an RPG LE.

[Tarskidx]

Sorry, you are right and. I guess when you think about it that way, 15,000 is a lot for an RPG not named Final Fantasy or Kingdom Hearts. Tales has its cult following but that is a higher production run as it is normally 5,000 or 10,000. It's just that I saw it sold out really fast on Amazon and you know the hoarders that will try to profit off of this and will deplete the supply.

 

Great points though and maybe we will see this drop.

I would rather have a new Tales game. Yes I know ToX2 is coming but there are more that have not made it stateside yet...

Thanks for the heads-up.  I'm going to wait and see if this shows up on Best Buy, or the very least, preorder it at a local Gamestop.  I don't like the shipping costs.
