It was mentioned in IGN's "Gaming Life In Japan" weekly update. It's for insiders only so unfortunately, I can't realy link the page (well, i can but it'll only work for insiders). It's mentioned in the weekly sales chart section in the part that shows debut games of the week that couldnt make it onto the top 10. Ys: Ark of Napishtim debuted at 32nd place. They didnt give a sales amount. To get an idea of what the numbers might be, check out the charts over at the-magicbox.com/If anyone realy needs this to be linked, hopefully someone can find a larger sales chart where the game will show up. The Magic Box's only shows the top 20 (or was it 30?) for the previous week. It guess its obvious it wouldnt do well in Japan because they've already got it for PC and PS2 for so long now, and the PSP isnt doing well over there as it is (highest selling PSP game is well below 500 000 units, and its a launch title). It'll probably sell better internationally. ive already got a few people in my college class to want it... and all I had to do was sit at a computer during break and play the trailer. As much as I dont like the PSP, i actualy recomended the PSP version... i mean, they're gonna get a PSP anyways (or already have it). I guess it helps that there arent too many RPGs on the PSP over here yet |

Yeah, I've seen it on many Japanese pages. I believe it was released like two weeks ago.

Persoannaly, i dont think this warrents getting a PSP, atleast not for me. Maybe if the PSP cost less... Ive remember reading somewhere that there are some additional things to the PSP version (aside from the game being a perfect PC port... or is it?). I mean, the game is already out as two perfectly good versions, so I wouldnt be interested in a third unless it offered something new (other than just being a portable version of the same game). Ive read that you'll be able to go into a soundtest mode and listen to the complete soundtrack, but im not sure how true that statement is.
Well, if anyone already has a PSP for some other good reason, i'd recommend getting this (like I already did ^_^).
and i think this trailer is just very similar to the PS2 one. it uses the same music and many of the same scenes, but its edited a bit differently.

Still haven't gotten a PSP yet, hasn't exactly had a huge list of games for me to want to buy, so I've held off.

I just found out you can run Windows 95 and Mac OS 7 on your PSP. That's pretty cool. It's supposed to be extremely slow though. I would never get a PSP for Ys VI. I will buy the game though.  |

I don't have a PSP yet, but I do have Legend of Heroes 4, & I finally preorderd Ys 6 for it. There are games I want for PSP, namely, Daxter, Maverik Hunter X, MM Powered Up, FF7 Crisis Core, I think there are some others, but, those are the main ones that come to mind. Still, the PSP is too expensive for me to warrant buying it just yet. So, for now, I'm actually quite enjoying the DS, despite my earlier thoughts of it sucking. Though, I will say I still don't care about the touch screen, but having 2 screens it nice. And damn I hope they release Ys Strategy over here!

I dont have a PSP yet either but the fact that capcom is releasing megaman games for it and that a new katamari damacy is coming out for it is a good reason. I heard the Metal Gear Acid games are nice additions.  |

Why would you want to run Win95 in the first place? There are hacks for getting online... The price has come down a bit but not enough to warrent a "BUY ME" yet... lol |

I just picked the PSP version of the game up and I totally love it. Now that I'm done with Air Force Basic and Tech School (which is why I was gone for most of the 2nd half of last year), I can get caught back up in my video games (and Ys is on that list). Its even better that I got stationed in Japan . |

I think its time for me to get a psp aswell. Especially because of Ark and all the hacks you can do for the PSP. I wil definetely get one before Ark comes out in the US.
