Signing this as well as liking the Zen United post regarding this, so even if EU doesn't get it, I can get the NA version from my local import shop (they don't do many games from Japan these days, just the odd one in the swaps section).
Arcana Heart 3 - Sign If You Want Aksys to localize it

MemberTossing my name into this. With the Platinum dlc taking so long, Arcana Heart 3 would have been a perfect game to bring over to hold us over till Spring at the very least. But, since the game has already been released in Japan, and no word so far from Aksys, I'm thinking I might as well just cough up the dough for the import. Especially if I want to get an LE copy, seeing as how I'm still a bit disappointed that Aksys didn't feel it was worth their time to give us a LE for BBCS.
I get really jealous of the folks in Japan, especially every time I watched Bururaji and they'd have some awesome new Blazblue merch.

Good news if you live in Europe! Hoping it will be the same in North America!

MemberConsidering that Atlus's forum itself is looking at Aksys to localize this title and they were the ones to initially bring the first over, it's a sure bet that a lot of people are depending on Aksys to localize this. Considering what the game is and what it has to offer to people who like fighters and especially those that are familiar with Arc System Works fighters and considering the -great- job that they did with BlazBlue itself, it would be a shame not to see it here.
The fact that Europe has picked up on it and there has been no announcement yet by Aksys or any other localization is troubling, however. It will get to the point where I will considering importing this from the EU (since it would be very easy to do so with my PS3) if nothing is heard about it too soon. I was expecting some sort of announcement of localization prior to EU having it, since that tends to be the way things go with most games, but this apparently is a special case. Perhaps because of the damage that Arcana Heart 2 did because of lag concerns on the PS2.
In what I've seen and what I've played, and considering the first week in Japan it did very well, ranking #6 in sales, I can't imagine it wouldn't be an appealing option for Aksys to give a chance. A quick reply to this, of any kind, would be appreciated. Otherwise, I really will have to consider importing. It's nothing personal, just business - I'd rather not wait around and I would not like to wait until the end of the year or next to wait on a domestic release that is already available via import in English. It's is, obviously and clearly, Aksys's decision to localize something such as this but the key factor is that I know plenty of people who share my thoughts and opinions on the matter. At the very same time, this is with the behest and respect of an organization that clearly does a great job with titles that I would take the time to suggest a localization for a title such as this anyways.
And with that, I'd thank you for your time and hope I hear the good word. Just know if you did localize the title, you would have this thread plus many, many more happy people this way of the Pacific.

MemberI'm a Xbox player and If Aksys isn't gonna port it to the US is it rly worth buying a ps3 to import and play it? I mean I'm pretty hyped and I support title for Arc Sys (got CT and CS) but its pretty harsh to beat the -your mother is a classy lady- out of my wallet to get a $300 PS3 and pay $100 for Arcana D: so just askin

MemberYou know what would be awesome? Aksys localizing a fixed version of Arcana Heart 2 to bring with Arcana Heart 3. <3
That would pretty much cement Aksys as the best publisher ever, in my eyes. Even if it was just a PSN download instead of being bundled with Arcana Heart 3.
I give my full support to this if I haven't already!
EDIT: And it seems I hadn't yet. Odd. Anyway, I have hope.
And seriously hope too that Aksys does the Arcana Heart 2 deal. It'd be pretty weird to only have number one and number three. I think Aksys loves us enough to do it. And with Jikandia in the Spring and Agarest Zero in the Summer, you have to wonder what else Aksys is going to do. Umineko would definitely be sweet, but both Arcana Hearts would be just as awesome.

I don't think they can do that unless Arc or Examu decides to.
