I would love to see Felghana and Origins (and Seven!!!) getting sweet NA releases, but they need to get proper console ports from Japanese dev. studios first since Atlus USA doesn't deal with PC games.I see this as Atlus testing the waters for more Ys/Falcom games in the future. They've heard their fans loud and clear and have given us something to chew on... let's buy this game en masse and we'll definitely get more out of this!Moral of the story: Some Ys is better than no Ys. @Chris: I totally know where you’re coming from, but Atlus USA are only a publisher and it’s actually one of the first times where so much non-localization work (ie merging both games on one cart) is involved behind one of their releases.

I want Ys IV!!! And Oath of Felghana!!!I shouldn't have to pay $60 plus over $30 shipping to get Oath of Felghana. Come on Atlus, I don't care if you butcher the graphics to make them more 3d like Konami did for 6! We keep getting version after version of Ys I and II. I want Ys IV!!! And Oath of Felghana!!!

As much as I like the series, Ys 1 is really not long enough to even consider as a purchase all by itself. I know I sure as hell wouldn't spend $35 on it alone. I think I can beat it in about 5 hours. It doesn’t surprise me in the least. As much as I like the series, Ys 1 is really not long enough to even consider as a purchase all by itself.
