Cameos from Daisuke, Takato, Takuya, Masaru, ,Taiki, and their Digimon? Just gets even better.

Looks like some kind of affection/social link system too.

This looks SO FUN! If only I had the game, a PSP and a working knowledge of the Japanese language!

It's a darn good thing I know so much of the dialogue by heart (and can understand enough Japanese to get through any possible new stuff), because this has pretty much completely sold me on this game. I was excited before - now it's an absolute must buy, no question! Most of the original voices (sad about Takeru, though the replacement does sound pretty close), other goggles heads (and Masaru, lol) showing up, all the episodes, Our War Game, AND new content? It was the game I always wanted and then some!

Still would be nice if it somehow got picked up over here with the dub's original cast (ha), but I love the Japanese version as well so I'm not about to be picky, lol.

Here's yet another Digimon game I don't see us getting. Has the series' popularity died out enough that we didn't get Re:Digitize before, and now we're obviously going to skip this one too?

Super Xros Wars was explainable as it required knowledge of the Xros Wars anime which, at the time, wasn't being considered for an R1 release. (They didn't really seem to care about that with World DS though as they used Masaru, Thoma and Yoshino for the Savers cameos.)

Lost Evolution, yeah, I've got no reason for why we didn't get that one.

Re: Digitize is because, well, the PSP's essentially dead in North America and anywhere that ISN'T Japan.

I recommend just importing or emulating it. There's only one PSP game in the pipeline for the US, and it comes out in February. By contrast, in Japan there's about 5-7 PSP games coming out every week still. The PSP is dead in the US, and I doubt a game based on a dead property (dead in America, I mean) is going to change that.

I preordered mine awhile ago on AmiAmi. I don't know Japanese, but likely there will be a guide on GameFAQs in a few months. :3 I know we won't see this in the US at all, so...

Honestly, I'm truly excited for this game - something that not only allows us to relive the thrill of the anime series but includes a battle system as well. Hope that we can have control over the partner Digimons' evolution (digivolution), but I doubt that will be the case since the battle elements are so tied in to the story.

Never was a huge fan of the Digimion World RPG games. They never did follow the show in terms of neither story nor character evolutions.

We certainly have come a long, long way of having to shake Digivices to count steps (Not sure how many people remember those). (^.^;)

Also, that post-clear bonus dungeon game looks to be awesome! Dukemon, KaiserGreymon, Magnamon! I am so pumped for this. Though I doubt we'll be able to download that Digivice simulator from the PlayStation store, since we're not in Japan.

Dumberica is just eager to move on to the next new system and act like the previous one never existed. Really, the Wii U and the Vita suck royal wind. I say we should have kept milking the PSP for what it's worth (and it's still worth plenty). I just don't get how it's considered dead when people show little interest in the barebones Vita while tons of people still play their PSPs with the latest games on them. And no, no one make jokes about the reason is because they can't afford a Vita (it's because they don't care or want one).

But people around the world, not just America, aren't that eager to move on to the next new system (PS Vita) neither. It's the companies who want to move on because sales have been down, save for Japan (but as the scripture says, they shall not live by Japan alone).
