Hey guys I'm looking to pick up Radiant Historia but my monetary funds are a little low. I have a walmart card with 50 bucks on it so I'd love to use that card to buy the game. The game is listed on the walmart website but currently says "not available at this time." I also have been to a few stores around here and can not find the game. Any ideas on when it will be available?

The game is officially released so I'm not sure why certain locations wouldn't have it yet. I've heard good things about the art style, combat, and especially the music. The way the story works is very interesting as well with the different endings and events based on how you change things in the past.

This game is the first DS game I have been really excited about in a few months. I'm just hoping I don't get screwed like I did for Crimson Gem Saga. Just never appeared down here around Baton Rouge...

I'd say order it from amazon to be safe, I know for sure its available there, and it's even 5 dollars off.

I think that is what I am going to end up doing if I can't find it over the weekend... I just wish walmart would carry more niche games since i get these cards every few weeks!

While there are no walmarts where I live, I know what you mean. Outside of amazon and gamestop, most stores like sears, best buy, target, toys r us, only carry the big name games, although every so often I get surprised like the way toys r us had tons of super princess peach copies.

I pre-ordered mine from my little brother who works at a Gamestop, he said mine was one of 4 they got in so it's not a huge release that's for sure. I pre-ordered for a copy of the soundtrack but it looks like every copy they're selling right now has the soundtrack in it.

Wow, only 4, that makes me worry about the future of gaming. A future where children grow up playing Madden and Call of Duty, but have no idea about games like this. I believe all of the games from the first printing have the CD according to the description, but usually with atlus there's only one print run anyway. I'm looking to buy this one soon I think, as I'm horrible at judging if these types of games will quickly drop to 10-15 dollars, or instead go up to 45 online because it got rare too fast.

This game is amazing basically. The battle system is great, love the "change" feature and the grid stuff. The time traveling and the story are also amazing. This is the best and most addicting RPG I have picked up in quite a while.

I don't know what to do... I have the game now but my DS's touch screen gets really messed up the longer i leave it on. By 5 minutes it's basically unplayable... I don't want to do it but I may have to wait for the 3ds launch :(

What version ds do you have and whats the problem your having with it? Does it stop responding, or maybe isn't accurate?

no it's a failure of the video ribbon cable for the touch screen. The top of my touch screen has a purple fade to it and as I continue playing the screen gets more and more hazy/ glitchy. The response is still perfect and when I close the ds and reopen it, the screen somewhat returns to its original state... until of course 5 minutes pass and the screen begins having the same problems.

Decided to start the game with the broken DS anyway... I couldn't wait a whole month to play. Put an hour into the game so far and all I can say is the music is some of the most beautiful/ catchy music i have heard in an RPG since Final Fantasy's rise on the PS1

I'm glad to hear such great things about this game. If it drops another 5 dollars I'm gonna snatch it up before it gets hard to find, as I definitely want this one is my collection.

Yeah I saw the amazon price at 29.99 with free shipping so I immediately jumped on it... however the free shipping (5-7 days) was just to long to wait so I had to go with overnight hahaha

It looks pretty good. Sounds a little like Chrono Trigger, which has me interested. The game seemed to come out of nowhere though, so it feels a little like a risk. I did preorder it from Amazon and I'm still waiting on my copy to arrive. It's been released over a week now hasn't it?

Oh well, free super saver shipping is slow, but free, so I guess I shouldn't complain too much.

You are not risking anything by picking up this title. I know what you mean about this game coming out of nowhere, I just heard about it 3 weeks ago. Trust me.... as an avid RPG player this title has me more hooked than any other RPG I played for both the DS and PSP. The story is much more mature than I was expecting. And as I said before... the music for this game is some of the best I have heard this generation.

I started the game tonight and have not been able to put my DS down for the last 3 hours.

I can say there is one negative about this game is that save points seem to be pretty scarce. There are points where you have to put 45 minutes into the story between saves. A quick save feature would have been a good idea.

I did some research on this game. At first I misread thinking this was going to be a Tactical RPG which is definitely my least favorite jRPG genre. However that is not the case.

When I read properly that this was a turn-based RPG with time travel developed by Atlus I immediately went to the retailers to order a copy. To my suprise every store was either on backorder or sold out and with the risk of ending up with a normal copy I went on eBay and ordered it for a whopping 45 euro including shipping. Thus making this my 3rd most expensive game, the other two were Japanese import Limited Edtions.

I have had enough of DS games not being released in Europe and I dont want to risk missing out on a wonderful RPG so hopefully it was worth the extra money.

My DS is currently doing overtime because of 999 which I had to import as well for around 37 euro, but so far worth every euro.

I should have grabbed this when it was 5 dollars off on amazon, but I decided to wait and see if it went down another 5 or 1o, the way some atlus games tend to do on amazon. Sadly, it went back up, and now I have to decide if I should just get it for its full retail price with the cd, or keep waiting and take a risk. I have 5 dollars credit coming from amazon soon, so I may use that and just pick this up before it's gone or too expensive.

Too bad about that sale. I wouldnt have been able to use it since Amazon refuses to ship DS and PSP games to Europe unless I pay like 25 euro shipping/taxes which makes eBay my only option.

Definitely pick it up, a full retail once in a while cant hurt.

I'm just afraid one waiting any longer can only mean trouble in the long run. I'd hate to wake up and find that its sold out and only goes one print.

Agreed!

I ordered mine from the UK and it has been shipped already so it should get here soon.

I will play Last Window first though. That has been on my to play list for ages. Almost finished with 999, which is already one of my all-time favorite games and numero uno for the DS. Play it NAO! :P

I'm gonna wait a long time to play 999 as I'm trying to be methodical with the games I play. I dont want too many DQ games left to play all at once so DQ 5 will be up soon, and then I wanna get to some games that will be quick to beat, then back to another rpg that i don't want to sit around for too long. Knowing I still have games like unwound future and 999 and last window is like having even more motivation to beat the game im currently playing.
