Would the game render at the native resolution of the iPad (the "Retina" ones)? If that's the case , then the artwork should look better if the assets are good.
I've seen items on Amazon.com sell out in less than 5 minutes even though they went on sale at around 3 AM EST.
Resellers make things like that happen quite often.
I'm quite sure that the Atelier games on the PS3 run at 720p.
It doesn't matter if the box says 1080p because upscaled is not the same as native.
720p has a lot more jaggies than 1080p
