Not sure if I want to order the Premium edition since there is nothing there I find too exciting other than the soundtrack, which I'm sure will be available to purchase or listen to in other areas.

Might still order from Japan.
You can choose the "PREORDER NOW PAY LATER" option at check out.

I am reading complaints all over the internet, but I would rather wait for perfection, than have it rushed. Also, that "Take Your Heart" premium edition surely makes up for it for me!

From the Mediacreate threads list it at 137,000 and Atlus news state it sold over 350,000 copies across retail and the last time I check the game shipped / sold roughly 900,000 copies worldwide for both physical and digital. It's easy to extrapolate that most of those Worldwide sales are from US And EU rather than Japan.
Atlus should have the hard data that Persona isn't some weak seller in the West to make localization some secondary concern. Considering how many delays this game and with the platform shift to the PS4 to not consider a worldwide release.
Whatever, not that anything can be done with that now.

Yep.
Hopefully the steelbook artwork is good. I guess I can cancel and go standard if it doesn't look good.

2016 so little too crowded when it comes to good games coming out that I want to play. I'm perfectly fine with this not coming out until 2017
Their standard shipping is 7.50 Canadian Dollar. Might be more if you order the LE though since it's larger.
VGP actually has the standard non-steebook edition up for preorder https://www.videogamesplus.ca/persona-standard-edition-ps4-p-23966.html

Why couldn't we get this, Atlus?
I know everything's subject to change, but this packaging is soooooooooo much better than the premium edition.
Edit: Meant it in jest, but I'll remove that additional comment I made.

Persona makes me do stupid things, but I'd like the Premium anyway. don't do a P4Arena atlus...
They really need to just lift that art for the US premium edition.

Oh FFS! After saying it would be out last year then not I really didn't think it would be pushed back again. My absolutely must buy list this year is becoming the smallest it's ever been I think. Maybe that will change after E3, but I kind of doubt it. Makes things easier on my wallet but I like having games to play. :/
Just did that. Didn't see it as I was ordering too quickly!

That collector's box and the physical casing is so good. Why oh why are they forcing the steelbook?Why couldn't we get this, Atlus?

Can anyone from Europe that has ordered the Premium Edition from VG please share the total cost of the order?
I'm wondering if it's cheaper than amazon, don't want to create an account there for nothing in case it's more expensive.

February slowly getting stacked

This CE is so much cooler than the one we've seen for NA. Still wondering whether or not I should keep my 20th Anniversary edition pre-order.

Wasn't this supposed to release in summer 2016 before
It's $109CDN with shipping options (for me) for $14.99CDN (7 to 28 days) and two $44.99CDN from DHL and Fed Ex (2-4 and 1-4 days). I didn't other yet but that's what I'm seeing. How's Amazon?

Damn, I really thought it could even be same day, but I never expected it to not hit 2016 at all.
Oh well. In the end its fine. I still have plenty else to play.

Perhaps he's wondering why someone would shoot a man before throwing him out of a plane.
Just snagged a collector's edition. With Amazon Prime, it was only around 77 dollars in total. The laptop bag alone is worth the extra money.

Calm down a bit there, being disappointed by the news doesn't mean you can lash out at folks.

It's funny how I was so stoked for it yesterday, yet now it's been completely driven out of my mind. P5 going to consume my entire Febuary and March.
I'd totally get the Japanese CE if the art book is in English but probably not. Ugh.

Eh, honestly expected this when they didn't announce the NA date alongside the Japanese one. There's enough games coming out this fall, so it's not the end of the world.
We are still getting SMT4: Apocalypse in NA this year, right?

Never for a second thought ffxv would be this year and not persona. Like I expected either both to slip in 2017,or ffxv to slip lol.

I was looking forward to a XV vs P5 showdown this Sept, but I'm sure P5 will be amazing Almost there.
We should get some more info on that during E3 as well. They said they would reveal the release window at E3.

Personally speaking, TLG actually does look far along enough that a holiday 2016 is a safe bet. Also a safe bet that Nier will be a 2017 release.
TLG I think will be this year. Nier.... not so much.
I honestly expect late spring or early summer 2017.
