Summon Night: Swordcraft Story anticipation?

[Xexyz]

I am not sure about anyone else here, but the GBA is getting some good loving from Atlus this year and I'm looking forward to it. One of my most anticipated titles that they're localizing is coming out this Tuesday, the 25th. Summon Night: Swordcraft Story, an action RPG with a battle system that's suspiciously similar to the Tales of Phantasia series.

I've been anxiously waiting for this title for a few months now, and it looks like I will finally be satisifed come a few days from now. Is anyone else hyped up for this game?

Also, the fact that Atlus will be releasing the sequel by the end of this year/early next year is fantastic. Add to that, the two Super Robot Taisen titles and Yggdra Union and wham, the GBA is sure going out with a bang despite the mounds and mounds of shovelware.

OT, but if you like Summon Night, you might be interested to know that Summon Night 4 is on it's way to the PS2. Here's a thread w/ some info and links.

So it's being localized for us Westerners? Who's publishing it? I do like the look of the PS2 titles, mainly because they are Tactical RPG's. I'm a bit of a Tactical RPG nut.

I doubt it's coming out in the west... the others didn't, did they? Quite a few other 2D RPGs have lately (Atelier Iris, Disgea, etc.) but these appear not to.

It seems a lot of really good 2d rpgs keep coming out for the GBA every time I look.

So, did anyone see this game on store shelves today?

I also wan to pick this up. Looks alright. Nothing spectacular, but still something I would buy nonetheless. I should be going to the game store shortly

Anyone actually find this game yet? I've had no luck at my local EB/GS stores. They've yet to get the title shipped to them...
