for final fantasy tactics A2 there is only the EUR/JPN verison
is there going to be a USA verison?

 

[Satangel]

According to GameFaqs:

06/24/08 US

So we can expect the dump anytime.

 

[refugio]

there will be in time, just be patient

 

[xjuniorx]

AH ok I see

 

[DeMoN]

Grrr.... an early release for the Europeans and a late release for us Americans.

Foiled again by the British!

 

[Syao4]

There's a difference between the EUR and the USA version?

 

[Nihsnek]

Damn europe..don't they usually get stuff late?

 

[Destructobot]

There's a difference between the EUR and the USA version?

Generally, just more language options in the European release. Get that if you want to play it now.

 

[Nihsnek]

Any word through the grapevine on an USA dump?

 

[ojsinnerz.]

Plaing the JP version now. There's 4 languages, English, Espanol, Francais and Deutsch. Not that I care, since I can't speak any European languages.

Unlike the previous one, if you choose one language, you don't have to bother clicking it multiple times whenever the game starts. The E and the U are the same here, probably.

I have been playing the EUR version for about 4 and a half hours and the game has started freezing on me. Sometimes it is at random but there have been two missions that freeze just after unit selection/ pre-fight dialogue. This is incredibly aggravating and game breaking for me as it could happen to important missions so I don't want to go any further.

I use an M3 ds simply with 1.14 firmware
Is there anything I can do to fix this? Would I have better luck with the (U) version once it gets dumped?
This is the only game that seems to do this so I am reasonable sure my cart isn't dying.

WHAT?! They had that option in the japanese one, as well? Then why the heck did it take 8 months to get to the US?!

No they didn't... I'm sure that he meant to say EUR version.

hahaha how could he be playing the JP version if japanese isn't in the language choices?

 

[Raestloz]

So, basically EUR is an expanded version of USA version with 3 additional languanges right?

That's right : aside from the language difference, everything else should remain the same. I believe even save files between (E), (J) and (U) versions are compatible (as long as you rename your save files to the same name as the ROM).

Any problems reported for R4DS / M3Simply / CycloDS / M3Real owners out there?

I really don't want to find out some sort of protection-lock implemented by Square-Enix, like they did with that "Thank you for playing" screen during Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles - Rings Of Fate release period (although I greatly respect them for it in order to counter piracy

).

 

[papyrus]

FF TA2 (US) is out download it now or youll die.

 

[Satangel]

M3Real working good with the EUR version of FFTA2, the only thing you can't do is put Soft-Reset on.
Then it won't work, but no doubt M3Team will fix that soon enough

My character and clan name shows up as ascii chars cuz I named them in Japanese. Anyone know how to rename them?

 

[DeMoN]

Actually, the US version also gives the option of choosing Spanish or French as the language, so the EUR only has 1 additional language: German.
