Did Persona 2 Eternal Punishment not get put on Vita yet? I stare at my screen hungrily,yet it isn't there. WHERE IS IT?

Anyway, what are our chances of getting that special SMT IV bundle here in the states?

[Lard]

Probably not likely.

Nothing to do with Atlus, but Nintendo and Sony both seem to release a lot of LE consoles in Japan that simply don't come over to NA.

Checked on the internet: Persona 2 Eternal Punishment available on: PS3. Atlus. DAMN YOU! DAAAAAMN YOU! Now I have something to bitch about, the entirety of Persona is available on Vita, except for the other half of that one game. ARRGH. Hopefully its up by the next update, or I am emulatin that there game.

Fixed, Atlus (or at least Nich) were caught off guard and were expecting it to be Vita playable. Hell, it doesn't sound like it's even PSP playable(!?)

Who the hell is Nich? Is this person some kind of video game insider?

You could say he really understands those... NICH(e) games.

EDIT:

Also, I have no idea. Maybe the guy that runs that blog?

Nich Maragos is one of the localization editors at Atlus, and was the one who wrote that P2:EP blog post. SCEA tends to have third parties contribute where relevant to their blog (like Aram used to for Atlus). He's said on Twitter he's looking into it, though I'm pretty sure the extent anyone outside of SCEA can do is yell at them to make it compatible.

Apparently worst case scenario, it'll be a few weeks. Its nice they are aware of the problem.

Also everyone, they restocked the first Raido game. Only 7 copies left for 40 bucks.

As much as I adored IS and EP (I played the import of IS and both the import and domestic versions of EP; wrote thesis-length reviews on them too), I'm more excited about SMT IV (because it's a new SMT main series game) and Soul Hackers (because I had trouble playing the import and it's a game I wanted BAAAAAD in English). 

IS and EP do remain my favorite Playstation RPGs, though.  So any opportunity to play them is fine by me. 

[Taelus]

I agree, Neal-- playing new SMT games is allll right with me (oh hello P4). I'm much more excited for that and Soul Hackers!

Has anyone else noticed that the creator of Smash Bros has an SMT character named after him?
I guess it could be just a Spooky coincidence.

I spent $60 ($70?) on that last year. ARGH! >_<

It is PSP playable, confirmed at GAF. It's PSV that's having issues(for now).

An addendum: it was confirmed by Jello44, who is (was?) a regular here.

Appearance altering equipment confirmed for SMTIV. Now you too can constantly look like a mismatched doof with no fashion sense whatsoever.
