Persona 2 and Trails in the Sky: Just one week to go

Thu, 27th Oct 2011 | Posted by Ross

Hi everyone.  It’s just over a week until the official release date of Persona 2: Innocent Sin and Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky and we’ve been very busy getting ready for the big day.

If you haven’t got around to ordering from us yet we still have some of the Persona 2 T-Shirts and Trails in the Sky rolled A1 Posters available. And, to make things even easier for you, you can go here to place your order.

It’s Halloween this weekend so why not settle down by the fire with your PSP and play some of Ghostlight’s spooky tales.  The spine tingling Persona 3 Portable and the fantastic Spectral Souls: Resurrection of the Ethereal Empires will both be on sale until the 9th of November with Persona 3 Portable available for €24.99 / £19.99 saving you €10 / £8 and Spectral Souls: Resurrection of the Ethereal Empires available for €12.99 / £9.99 saving you €5 / £4.  Play with headphones to keep the trick or treaters … sorry ghosts at bay. 

I’ve also been getting quite excited about a certain announcement from Sony last week, which has inspired me to send several emails around the office about which Vita games we should be looking into.  Sadly, I’m currently being held at gunpoint to prevent me from telling you which ones we are looking at, but I can tell you that at least one game is currently on its way to us for evaluation :).  Exciting isn’t it? 

If you’ve got any Vita games you’d like us to look into, feel free to suggest them in the comments.  While I can’t promise we’ll pick them up, I will take a look at each of them before passing them on. 

That’s all for now.  I’m going to be at the MCM Expo on Saturday, so feel free to say hi if you spot me. Next week I shall be returning with news which will make a few of our Australian fans out there quite happy *cough* P3P *cough*.

I'm not saying Vita games for now, but PSP games I'd like: Nendoroid Generations Unchainblades Rexx Project Diva Extend Fate Extra Hakuoki Rurouni Kenshin Saizen Tales of the heroes: Twin Brave Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica Gloria Union
Teddie says:

So unbearably excited for P2:IS. Just got done preordering it and I can't wait to get my paws on it. I'm sure it will be beartastic! n.n I would beary much enjoy to see Persona 4: The Golden released by you guys with a bearrific CE. ;D
[GL] Ross says:

@Teddie someones been playing too much of the PS2 version haven't they :). Or is ti the anime?
Yu Narukami says:

Is it Persona 4: The Golden? If it's Persona 4: The Golden, I will buy 15 copies.
[GL] Ross says:

@Yu Narukami 1) Can't say sorry :( 2) Even if we like whatever game we're bringing over to evaluate it doesn't necessarily follow we'll be able to release it.
Chris says:

Persona 4: The Golden would be awesome, nothing beats a good handheld RPG. Gravity Daze (or Rush I think they're calling it now) is another I'd like to see bought over. Also, off topic Vita wise, are you guys still considering bringing Devil Survivor Overclocked for 3DS?
Santashi says:

I was so excited to get my shipping notice for Persona 2! I can't wait to play it. :) Those are some good sales, too-I have both those games already (and in saying that it's just hit me that I've actually bought Persona 3 a total of 5 times in different forms!) but if I didn't I'd definitely go for them. As for Vita games, I'd need to check which ones are already confirmed for being localised, but I will whole-heartedly add my vote for Persona 4: the Golden.
Dennis says:

so theres only one thing that bothers me for a while now .... did i miss something or arent there any new news about the paid dlc for Agarest Generations of War Zero? Greetings
technochicken says:

Maaannn I still want psp releases. Brave story or Knights in the knightmare would be grand. Theres life in the old girl yet! Totally off topic but was wondering the other day, as you sent out the games 2 weeks early how did you get around the release date? kinda 'our game, our rules'?
Ailtin says:

My guess for a good Vita game to come here: Ys IV. Either do this, or if they plan to release this Voice Version of LoH-Zero no Kiseki, try to look into that. Either way, cant wait to hear which game it will be ;)
michaelius says:

Apart from Persona 4 I'd be very interested in SumiOni. But for now Fate/Stay psp feels much more urgent ;)
Komic says:

I know you're probably sick of us asking but where is the pay DLC for Agarest Zero?
Robert says:

I'd have to hand to you Ghostlight. Your releasing Innocent Sin in PAL less than two months after it was released in USA. Must be a new record for an Atlus game.
[GL] Ross says:

@Chris It's something we'd love to do but at the moment I've no news on it. @Dennis and @Komic I've been promised news on the Agarest DLC for next week. @michaelius last I heard future PSP games will depend on the sales of Trails in the Sky. @Robert We're always trying to get the release dates as close together as possible or if possible beat the USA we managed it with the first Agarest I believe.
Charon says:

@technochicken Xseed licence for Brave story expired this spring and it has been pulled off the us psn. It means you have close to 0 chance to eveer see it in the eu. If you ever get across an import copy buy it, it's going to be a collector since it won't ever have a reprint now.
Charon says:

@Ross don't forget psp psn release with the vita could be juicy if you manage to get your hands on more gems. FF7 has been in the top ten download of the psn pretty much every month since it has been rerelease, retrogaming is the way to go.
Arisu_Reiji says:

Dear Ross, I think I'm being cheated by Ghostlight customer service. I would love to get that awesome package from you but, firstly you said it cannot be delivered to those europe territories like Spain. I did pre-order without noticing that so, I did ask for a cancelation when I did notice later, just incase they keep the payment and also pre-order it again here in Spain. I e-mailed on 21st of October and got a reply that you would cancel my order on 24th. Now I get another e-mail Today saying that it was posted....RELEASE DATE IS ON 4th!! I know it haven't been posted so, please cancel my order since I did ask for it more than 2 weeks before release date. Thanks in advance for your time and I'm sorry I've to cancel but, it was your company who established distribution deals here in Spain, not me. Again, thanks. My order number is #200001177.
[GL] Ross says:

@Arisu_Reiji I'm currently looking into this could you email me on ross.brierley at ghostlight dot uk dot com please.
ObviusFault says:

Ah son of a .... just my luck eh? i bought persona 3 2 days ago... even tho the game is great i wouldnt mind buying it when it was for sale :S. on another note how many of the IS/TitS packs do you have left?
[GL] Ross says:

@ObviusFault I think we've still got quite a few left. But I'm not sure exactly how many.
[GL] Ross says:

@Arisu_Reiji I've just spoken to our customer service person who will be getting back to you shortly. If you have any further problems feel free to email me.
[GL] Ross says:

@Charon Sorry I missed your comments. It's not set in stone either way if the right game comes along we will usually try for it regardless of system. Well within reason if anyones holding out for something on the NES well I wouldn't hold your breath.
Cphd says:

Certainly there are a few interesting Vita games...but they could be problematic. Easy and popular choice would be Persona 4 but the european PS2 version was handled by Square-Enix so it could be a mess of "rights" (?). Certainly hope you guys can work something out, its a gem, mostly localized already, could be a pretty popular pick-up soon in the system life. Ys IV (when XSEED picks it up, which they will) is a must as well, other Falcom games like the announced "Zero no Kiseki full voice edition" is difficult because XSEED is going to take a while to localize, although there are rumblings Falcom and XSEED could be working to get the Trails in the Sky SC on the Vita. Then there's a few that could lack an european partner like Vanillaware's Dragon's Crown (PS3/Vita) or Chunsoft's Zennin Shiboudesu (Vita/3DS) which is bound to be picked up by Aksys in US (from DS ADV game "999" fame). As a more personal choice, I'd follow Gung-Ho "Ragnarok Odyssey" developed by GameArts of Grandia fame, footage looked good, Ragnarok is a known IP, famed developer...could be worth keeping an eye on. Anyway, best wishes for Persona 2 and TitS:FC sales!
rokuso3 says:

Hello! Really looking forward for Innocent Sin, already preordered it from an english site (sorry, your store ends up being too expensive due to pound-euro conversion and shipping costs, too bad because I totally wanted Tatsuya's Tshirt...), I'll buy TitS as soon as I can :D. I'm wondering, will P2 be released on Spain? And will it be on the same day? Because someone told me it's been delayed until november 18th but I think he's wrong. Thanks! Sorry fot he long post. About Vita games, quite impossible but still a possibility: Extreme Escape Aventure - good people die (9 Hours 9 Persons 9 doors semi-sequel).
Falco252 says:

Well, imma thinking that I'll buy a vita when it'll be 50/100� cheaper :D Tho I didn't read anything about its lineup haha. So I'll just say Persona 4 Golden and, if it ever comes out, Nocturne remaek§§§
Matt says:

I think there's only two Vita games that haven't been announced yet for US or EU that i'm interested in. It's been going pretty good so far. they are Time Travellers by Level-5 and Ys IV remake.
ObviusFault says:

This is a question for Ross. Seeing as you are a big fan of Persona... Have you seen the anime? and if so did you like it?
Garron says:

Persona 3 Portable is on the Australian store now.
Man with a suggestive cough says:

*COUGH*persona4thegolden*SPLUTTER* Also, if it's possible next year.. *ACHOO*p4ultimateinmayonakaarena*HACK* Bless me.
[GL] Ross says:

@rokuso3 Persona 2 is definitely being released in Spain. I'll try and find out if it's been delayed. @ObviusFault I have been watching it on Anime on Demand so I've only seen up to episode 3 but so far I'm really enjoying it.
Anonymous says:

I opened a package yesterday and was surprised to see Persona 2 and Trails in the Sky. I thought it was just the t-shirt. Persona, Persona 2 and Persona 3 are nicely lined up. Now where's my Persona 2: Eternal Punishment PSP version?
[GL] Ross says:

@Anonymous Nice to hear they showed up. I hope you enjoy them both. We'll have to wait and see what Atlus do about Eternal Punishment but I loved Innocent Sin so I hope I get to work on it.
Zackk says:

A big thanks to Ghostlight from France. I've got my Persona 2 today and the edition is very nice, good works. I will buy soon Trails In The Sky, even if I have already my limited us version, you deserve to be supported. It's really nice to have a publisher like you in Europe and I hope that in the future you can bring us more, cause yes we alway wants more ^^ Keep up the good work and thanks for all. Zack, a french gamer among many.
[GL] Ross says:

@Zackk Thank you for your support :) We really appreciate it.
