Ok, bad news. XSEED has canceled the US release. (http://www.shacknews.com/article/73628/xseed-drops-grand-knights-history-plans) Its still getting a release in Europe, so it looks like importing that is going to be the way to go.

That sucks.  Hopefully, Atlus will pick it up like they did with Vanillaware's other game Dragon's Crown.

I just read the article on GameInformer.. God damn it.. I get that the PSP is being phased out but this far into localization and they drop out feels like a cop out. At least the European version will be available.

How much of a niche market are these game sin the US? I would have imagined this genre was more widespread in North America than in Europe.
