The countdown teaser site has made its final evolution. Some basic info is there, with more stuff to be revealed at Jump Festa next weekend.

Here's some other info in English.

Okay Namco just, what the hell is your problem? Seriously, why do they continue to exclusively push all their games, ESPECIALLY this franchise only on Sony consoles? Let's get something straight here; your three most popular Tales games were all released on non-Sony consoles; Tales of Phantasia was a beloved fan favourite for being the series progenitor, Tales of Symphonia brought the franchise to the mainstream and Tales of Vesperia made everyone believe that good RPGs are possible on an American console.

So why all the hate? Vesperia was probably one of the most popular recent releases, at the very least have a 360 release! I get how everyone and their mom hates Nintendo but at the very least, I'd love to hear an explanation as to why the Microsoft crowd gets left out of these?

Yeah, the Japs hate Microsoft with a passion, and Vesperia was an incredibly dire attempt at building eastern interest that from what I hear, didn't even work out that well. And if even Tales can't save them, it's no surprise that Microsoft doesn't really give a fuck anymore. Doesn't really explain their aversion to Nintendo though.

Thinking about it now, did we even get fucking Xillia yet? Because I swear I haven't seen it in stores.

I've seen Xillia at least once every time I've gone to my local EB Games. Hell, even the Day One Edition was still in stock for at least a week after release. Might be a different story elsewhere, though.

I've seen both the European and North American releases of Xillia, so yeah, it's out. Regarding Vesperia on the 360:

Quote:
 
According to Famitsu's annual top 100, Vesperia was the 82nd best selling title in Japan in 2008 having sold 161,070 copies. The launch of Tales of Vesperia in Japan caused the Xbox 360 to sell out for the first time since the system's release in Japan. With 204,305 copies sold, it is currently the second best-selling Xbox 360 game ever in Japan, behind only Star Ocean: The Last Hope. In North America, Tales of Vesperia sold 33,000 copies during the 4 days after its 26 August launch.


Sounds like good numbers to, at the very least, have a multiconsole release for their Tales games. If not in Japan then in the rest of the world. Might be incentive to have a Nintendo release as well, considering Graces was also a great seller when it was first released.

Man, so many Tales of games. I still haven't fully finished Graces f, nor have I finished Xillia. And Symphonia Chronicles just came out a few days ago, with Xillia 2 due out later this year. And now there's this. God damn. WHY CAN'T I HOLD ALL THESE HOURS OF PLAYTIME.

I've still gotta get around to importing a copy of Tales of Hearts R. Doesn't seem like that'll be getting an English release at all.
