Yes it's good. Pick it up if you've got a Vita. You won't be disappointed unless you hate awesome games.

I really want this game! I don't have much in ways of physical games for my Vita. I usually just play what I get free from PS+. This is one that I will be adding at some point though. If it drops below $30 I will definitely get it.

There's a good chance that with time Celceta will drop that low, given that Ys Seven can be had for less than $20 new on Amazon nowadays. That being said, XSEED are my publishing heroes, so I tend to buy their games upon release in order to support them as lucratively as possible. (I also do this with Atlus stuff.) Either way, even at ~$40 you won't regret a penny with Celceta.
PLAY KING'S FIELD.

But, still. Where your game is concerned, I don't know if I'll ever get into collecting Saturn. It is just such an expensive console to collect for. Same with Neo Geo. I would love to collect both, but I don't think I could ever get my wife on board with those collections.
It's all about balance. The acquisition of PDS means I won't make any large online game purchases until perhaps May or so. I'll still just to local shops and whatnot and search for cheap stuff. Last year I bought an Amiga CD32 and a bunch of other stuff during a big "splurge" - I stayed away from online shopping for about 5-6 months after that. Essentially I try not to go over an average of $100 a month.

Neo Geo AES stuff can be surprisingly "affordable" if you don't mind imports. I own four AES games, and they ranged in price from $12.50 to $50.

Oh and the latest Ys game is amazing. 8)

Let's hope she never wises up!

I get that. And I completely agree that this game is probably worth every penny. However, I don't always play a game right when I get it. So, If I buy it at full price then don't play it until it's a greatest hit, I just wasted a decent bit of money. But, I think it's great that you support the publishers that you like so well. It's not that I care to pay full price, but if I don't have to, I won't.

Early on but I'm probably done for this month. Buffed my Master System collection a bit and got a light phaser which is pretty cool. Also, after some fuss with customs I got my copy of Sturmwind.

Bravely Default is out? I need to step my game up - I've been so focused on retro games that I've been ignoring the current gen stuff. I still haven't picked up Sorcery Saga yet either.

Yeah, it came out today. If you want the collector's edition, start looking at ebay. I couldn't find it anywhere. At all. I am a bit disappointed with my regular edition. :(
