I now kinda want this really bad. I'll have to wait.

How's the battle theme? Did they do it right, or does it sound better/worse?

Rydia's Mathemagic Minute can go smurf itself.

Battle theme sounds fine.

*editga* Just got my ASS KICKED by Scarmiglione.

Battle themes are for the most part unchanged. They sound a bit different, but they're still great. The music sounds more orchestral (not a whole lot though) than just some midi beats.

EDIT: Has anyone yet noticed that battles can be dealt with with one hand? L acts as A and you just use the D-Pad. Unless of course you want to cancel an action, then you have to use B.

EDIT ver2.0: Apparently this also works outside of battles. It doesn't seem to work in menus though, L and R are reserved for switching between characters.

EDIT ver2.1: I remember Dragon Quest VIII using this method as well. I hope we continue to see it in further installments to the series.

Oh yeah, there was no somethingawful.com reference at the beginning of the game this time either.

Grr! Wal Mart didn't have it. Can't justify driving half an hour to pick it up at a Gamestop.

I'm really hoping they'll have it tomorrow

Protip: Heal Scarmiglione to death, he doesn't counterattack that way.

Wal-Mart is terrible at stocking new games. You can ask if they have it in the back, that's how I got my DS Lite.

You could also order online.
