I'm suggesting that Aksys make a bundle with both games. That'd make those players that are buying a U$50 PSN Card to spend their money with another Aksys title, and it'd make more people play the game again, and maybe more purchases in the future.
Arcana Heart 3 + Battle Fantasia Bundle (PSN)

Jumbocock: Can I Really Be the Hero?Not a bad idea, but with AH3 being $29.99 and BF $19.99, wouldn't you be able to get both with an U.S. $50 PSN card anyways?
I was waiting for BF to go on sale before buying it (I'm not big into fighters), but broke down and finally got it last week... It would be my luck if it went down in cost when AH3 drops in a couple of weeks...Neil Hamburger(Il buono): Why did God send Terri Schiavo to hell? For the sin of sloth.

MemberWhat exactly IS Battle Fantasia? I've heard of it but I have no idea what it actually is. Why should it be sold with Arcana Heart III? You've lost me.... Ah, now I see. It looks like its a fighter with RPG elements in it similar to Arcana Heart III. Yeah, I could see it becoming a two-pack at some point... but not on its first night out. I have to try them both now.

Jumbocock: Can I Really Be the Hero?Go to Aksysgames.com main page, it's another fighting they've localized from Arc System Works. Released on 360 first here in the States, you can usually find new copies of the game for less than $10 on Amazon. Came out a while later for PS3 but SCEA gave it the Agarest treatment and limited it to PSN-only. It's stylistically similar to BlazBlue...

I don't think Shizuka was suggesting a forced bundle and neither was I; just proposing in addition to the singular release of AH3 that Aksys either bundle the two or put BF on sale in the PSN Store...

MemberA bundle would be nice, but I think there would need to be some other incentive for it to actually be beneficial, like a slightly lower price. If people have an extra 20 bucks lying around on their account and they can't decide what to spend it on, they're just as likely to go "oh well, I'll just wait for something cool to pop up" or "I could just throw this other cool-looking game into my cart" as they are to go "Oh, there's an Arcana Heart 3 bundle that costs $50, may as well get it!" Then there are the people who use credit cards, who can just throw Arcana Heart 3 into the cart, add $29.99, and not worry about having extra money left over.

MemberI have Battle Fantasia already. What about making a bundle with Calamity Trigger for the PSP as well? My UMD was stolen along with my old PSP...

MemberFirst of all, Arcana Heart is new. When was the the last time you saw a new game included in a bundle?
Second, Battle Fantasia isn't exactly popular. This isn't related to it's quality, but the online scene on the game is dead. There's little to no incentive to buy it.

MemberDead or not, I still play that time sucker. I wouldn't mind playing with people from this forum at all.
Still, I'll buy Arcana Heart 3 as soon as I can. Aksys deserves my money for bringing this one here.

Knights in the Nightmare was bundled with Yggdra Union on release at retail and on psn. It was $30 for the game which came with the other for free. Peace Walker also had 3 bundles on psn as well. Also EA has been giving retail bundles on ps3 for a bit now with Dead Space 2, BF:BC2, and MoH coming with a fully featured game included. So yeah, a new game being bundled isn't unheard of and in the case of EA, new games along with remakes of previous games that can be sold as stand alone.
In all honesty, I'd rather see RoAW bundled (for at least the first week) with Arcana Heart 3 as it could draw attention to the sequel of that game coming out in a few months. Help build awareness for that franchise as well as giving a good deal with a moe fighter.

Yes, Yggdra Union WAS included with Knights in the Nightmare HOWEVER, Yggdra Union was NOT worth the time of day. The only reason it was included at all was to tie the two plots together and to have the Princess playable in Knights... other than that, the game is useless. But then, I hate card battle games which Yggdra Union was so there in lies my dislike for it. I haven't played Battle Fantasia and after seeing the videos I really want to. If Battle Fantasia isn't included with Arcana that's fine, but it should at LEAST be considered for a two-pack with something else considering that it's not really holding up on its own very well sales-wise.
I hadn't even heard of BF when it first came out but now that I see how crazy the fighting is in it, I really want to try it. While it's true it may not be Guilty Gear, it still deserves to be treated fairly.

Well, you've said it yourself: companies bundle new games with "bad" games. I wouldn't complain if Aksys released a bundle of Arcana Heart 3 and Battle Fantasia, it'd help to sell more units of Battle Fantasia.

Yggdra Union was pretty awesome, though...
But anyways, very rarely do games get put into bundles unless they sold poorly.

MemberHollow Ninja: I never really cared for it... the need for cards just to fight enemies was incredibly irritating. If you didn't have the right cards, you got quickly annihilated and it was far too frequent. You'd either run out of cards which made you a defenseless target for the enemy or you'd use too many of the cards and couldn't use them either that or you lost them. Arguably it was one of the best looking games of the genre, but those details made it VERY hard to enjoy for newcomers to the series.
