I heard Vita is region free, but i don't want ANY hassle at all with this stuff, so can i simply import the physical game cart and play it on my Vita? This would have nothing to do with accounts, regions etc. right?

Yes, Vita game carts work on any region. The only hassle would be if Celceta had DLC, because DLC purchased on a PS Store from a different region would be a no-go. Since Ys is pretty much self-contained and has no DLCs, you're fine with just the cart. Everything will work just fine, even trophies and stuff. Just put the game in and have fun :V

...For the record, I personally prefer the PSP version of Felghana to the PC version. But I do seem to be in something of a minority on that one.
I just really like the voice-acting and the addition of "double boost" to the gameplay, both of which are features the PC version lacks.

November 5th is what most retailers have it as, but they are still just placeholders.

just preordered 10 of these. thanks.
Sounds like a "Felghana+" patch is in order.
Wasn't this the only one left to be remade?
I speak from the perspective of older releases, not ports of modern Ys games.
Yes! I was hoping that was the case!
Preordered. I have all the other LEs so I gotta have this one.
The impression I got was that the double boost kind of breaks the difficulty of the game.

Completed Ys Origin a few months back and since I've seen Ys Seven on a lot of underrated lists (including a rep from a friend) I'll be picking that up along with this during the Holidays. This franchise has some addictively fun (and at times challenging) combat.
I hope you've played Oath in Felghana as well.
Sorry to slightly necro-post, but I somehow missed this when it was originally posted and only just now saw it when referencing this topic on our forums.
"Ys V: Lost Kefin, Capital of Sand" has yet to be remade (save for Taito's PS2 remake in Japan, but that barely counts!), and it's the game most in need of a remake -- while Ys III has the reputation of being the "black sheep of the series," Ys V is the *true* black sheep. Ys III may be criticized in retrospect, but back when it was new it was fairly popular, and it made Falcom a lot of money. Ys V, on the other hand, has never really been popular at all, and seems to have been kind of a flop for Falcom, killing the entire series for 8 years until they finally resurrected it with Ys VI: The Ark of Napishtim.
It's very different from other Ys games, featuring much slower, clunkier combat, more realistically-proportioned and earth-toned graphics, a really broken magic system, and a more orchestral/"epic"-sounding OST that didn't really play to Falcom Sound Team jdk's strengths.
It did, however, contain quite possibly the most interesting and original setting in the entire series, as well as a surprisingly excellent story with a really well-developed and likable cast of characters (aside from Terra, who's only slightly less annoying in Ys V than in Ys VI!).
Which is why I really, really would love to see this game remade at some point -- give it the Felghana treatment, and it could very well be one of the best Ys games out there.-Tom

He said on their forums it may show up after launch, but it depends on XSEED's and Falcom's schedules.

Why the Felghana treatment? It would probably get the Celceta treatment.

Felghana kept the story in Ys III in tact, it just expanded on it. Celceta doesn't really do that for Ys IV, it kind of does it's own thing.
From a gameplay perspective it's more or less the same though, both are completely different than the original games. As I understand it Ys V isn't well suited for a party system unless they completely rewrite it. Seems like the idea of it being based on Nayuta no Kiseki's gameplay is a popular idea.

I'm almost tempted to just cancel the pre-order and use the money towards Killzone at this point and hopefully pick this up when it is finally released. I'm really looking forward to it, but the uncertainty makes me think they are moving towards pushing it back into 2014 for a realease date. I'd rather have retail copsies of games than DD and was planning on getting the DD version of Killzone, since the money is already in my PSN wallet.

I don't think this will happen unless a major issue comes up or something. They've been pretty adamant about it still being for 2013.

I'm hoping, I originally thought that the 9/3 date was a lock until GS changed it recently, so I was a little sad, lol.
It's definitely going to be 2013 unless something ABSOLUTELY DISASTROUS happens. I just wouldn't count on having it in your hands until at least November.

VGP have the Anniversary Edition up for pre-order.

Now I just need to get a Vita...(the Sapphire Blue or the yet to be seen God Eater 2 Fenrir Edition).
Awww.
At least it's still slated for this year. With FFX HD delayed, I have no JRPG to play with my Vita for October and November. Hope we get a release date soon!FloppyDelux
