It's some thing that xseed continues to publish for the psp.
Yup, heard about it earlier, Vanillaware is great, as is Xseed, though, I want even more Falcom games via Xseed, but this game will do until Xseed announces the release date for Legend of Heroes Trails in the Sky 2 as well as Zwei! & Ys Celceta: Sea of Tree's(& possibly Brandish, might be more chance of them doing Brandish over Zwei!).

I thought the idea of Zwei! was squashed long ago?
I'm not sure if i'm a fan of the graphical style. I like the way it looks in a screen shot but i'm not sure if I would like it as much when I play it. The characters just kinda look like paper cut-outs.

I thought so too, but Wyrdwad/Tom clarified that they might still bring it over. I forget his exact words, it was a couple months back over in the Ancient Land of Ys boards, but I don't recall what topic it was in. I thought there was some comment that they wouldn't bring it over do to it being too cute or something like that, but, I guess there's still hope. Ys Celceta is deffinitly looking like it's being brought over due to his clue's, as he can't say for sure yet until they announce it, but, it's sounding good. I just hope the rest of the PSP Trails games can come over!
Found it:
No, that was us. And it wasn't necessarily a "we will never ever release this game" turn-down, but more like a "we don't see this as a top priority" kind of thing. We still might work on it sometime in the future!

Sweet! I love the super detailed 2D that they do. I need to get a psp now.

Grand Nights History localization officially canceled :(

Gah, crap!@edogti;jaweptwajprt5j0923r5jh0 :evil:
Great. Now I can be hugely frustrated by beautiful but AMAZINGLY DULL AND BORING games all over again.
Seriously. I'm going to need a case of quaaludes to get the rest of the way through Odin Sphere...

Blame vanillaware since there so busy with dragon's crown,they don't have the resoruces to help xseed localize grand knights here :evil:
Wich i say what bull shit!!! Realy why did vanillaware licenese out GKH if they couldn't help xseed finsh up what was left shesh.
I hope XSEED can get their licensing fees back from them and put them towards something else. I'm sure Vanillaware was too busy focusing on the assets ::ahem:: required for the witch in Dragon's Crown.
I also think the PSPs current marketplace situation certainly contributed. VanillaWare wasn't going to reap big royalties on a PSP game released in the US in 2012

No shit. Super Robot Wars Z2 Saisei-hen just sold 300,000 on PSP last month in Japan. In the US...can you even buy anything for PSP in department stores? Last time I looked it was all shitty 1st party stuff like SOCOM or sports crap and stupid EA driving games. It was that way for YEARS with just...nothing coming out.

Frys still gets in new releases..... then marks them down a few months later......
Yeah, and GameStop near me has shit all over themselves to give up PSP space for the Vita. The only bonus is that a lot of PSP games are dirt cheap now.
I've noticed Gamestop is clearing out their PS2 games for really cheap prices (usually loose, though). It seems like every time I've walked into one lately I've walked out with at least 3 PS2 games (buy 2 get one free) - usually for about $5. Maybe it's about time I bite the bullet and get a PSP while the games are readily available and cheap.
I actually wasn't overly excited about this game. I mainly was getting it, due to it being one of the very last physical PSP games released. Oh well, there's still Gungir & Growlanser 4 coming out in a couple months. I'm not sure if those are the last 2 or not.
Since people seem to be getting rid of PSP games, I've discovered many great games that I never knew anything about, & getting them dirt cheap, mostly off of Amazon, with a few on half & ebay. My PSP collection has greatly overtaken my DS collection. But ofcorse, just all the english released Falcom games are worth getting a PSP for...well, maybe with exception to 3 of the 4 Legend of Heroes games, since Namco/Bandai butchered them pretty good, but the Trails in the Sky one is flawless.

My local Gamestop has quite a few marked around 5-10 dollars, and a few good titles like Lunar and Gradius collection. My buddy just gave me his old PSP so as soon as I get a charger I'm hitting them up.
