I'm not to worried about the game not being released in Europe - I can get it on import, and my PS2's chipped, so it's all good - it just grates sometimes. The next SMT game will undoubtedly be released on PAL (Lu's Call and DDS1 are doing quite well, I hear) so I'll wait for that. In Square's absense with the Final Fantasy series, loads of other underground RPGs - Shadow Hearts, Suikoden, MegaTen - have almost taken over. FF12 is going to have to be pretty damn spectacular if Square want to keep their RPG crown.

If it's the shop responsible for the re-print, I guess I can't be mad at Atlus for that.

Suikoden 1 was good for the mid-90's, but I find the interface rather unfriendly and frustrating compaered to most latter day interfaces.

Suikoden 2 is one of the best games ever made. Great bad guy, good characters and charming graphics.

Suikoden 3 was terrible. I spent lots of money getting it on import (wasn't released on PAL) and regretted it. I don't know what I don't like about it, but I thought it was awful although lots of people like it.

Suikoden 4 was alright-ish, but whne you see Suikoden 2 all you can ask yourself is "Why, Konami? WHY?!". Not a terrible game, but not a very good one either.

Suikoden 5 isn't out yet, but apparently it's pretty good.

Over here, Disgaea isn't that rare (lot's of people bought, thought "WTF?!" and took it back to the shop). I quite liked it, but I levelled up to 100 and then just got so very tired of CONSTANTLY levelling up.

I'll prolly get Disgaea 2 though - I loved it's wacky charm. I hope it's not toned down like Atelier Iris 2 was.

Ah, this would explain the kajillion copies of Persona 2 that have been blocking up my ebay screen - some cheeky bastards are selling it has high as $100 though! Hopefully, this will increase my chances of getting it at a good price.

It's all very well re-releasing it on NTSC, Atlus, but what about us!? The poor little PAL gamers who never get anything! C'mon, we love you! Look at the reviews Lucifer's Call got, dammit!

Are you looking strictly at the UK eBay? Most US sellers for games I come across are willing to ship worldwide. Persona 2 was fairly common there for a while after that re-printing happened. Maybe it's not anymore though... I've not checked in quite a while.

Hopefully Atlus will work with some company to get a PAL release of the title. I was glad to see Nocturne and DDS came out there, although DDS2 seems to be getting pushed back constantly.

There are quite a few international sellers for Persona 2 (I've just this minute checked) so it's all good....til I get some much needed money anyway. The original is being sold in £ here in Britain as well - I just hope they hold on til I have the funds....

There's no news of DDS2 coming out yet. I guess Atlus will decide whether to release it or not depending on how DDS1 does. It would be pretty silly to only release half a game, but it happened with Xenosaga....

Thankfully, I have both DDS's on American import. Those games rock hard.

Although Persona:Revelations and Persona:Eternal Punishment weren't released on PAL, I'm trying hard to get them (no sign of Persona 2 but the original is going on ebay for about £50...which is a lot) but whatever the case, I'm very interested in Persona 3. The story sounds interesting, and it would be nice to play an RPG set in modern Japan - the only game that has ever done that is Lucifer's Call, and it was totally refreshing!

I used the Red Star strategy - make the Pixie lose her MP and Hitoshura suddenly is open to attack. I thought it would never work and was skeptical, but I defeated him on the third try. I found the other strats relied to much on luck.

Hi. I'm a new member (obviously) who stumbled upon this little Megten treasure trove whilst searching one night. I thought I'd introduce myself and say hi.

I'm British, so I know little in the way of Megaten games (only SMT:Nocturne and DDS1 have ever made it over here in terms of ANY Megaten games) but I've become very interested in them. I'll see you all round after I sort out an avatart and all that.
