You can always redownload though if you already own, right?

They announced the termination of game and DLC distribution four days after it actually happened, thus not even giving folks a last chance to buy it. Nice.

Yes, but this was really sudden.

Thankfully the Wii version of this game was physical only, so it's still available through there.

Shame the Vita version never got a physical release in North America. It was released physically in Europe and Japan but is very hard to find.

Fuck.

I never got around to getting this, inferior iteration as it apparently is.

Good of them to issue a press release for a shutdown that occurred four days ago.

I think I have NLKS on my Vita (but can redownload it anyway; that's fine). I *hope* I got the extra download content too.

I want to say that if you don't own it by now then you probably never would have bought it...BUT Konami are idiots for not putting it on sale before it goes away. People WILL give in to pressure and buy it just to have it, with no intention of playing it anytime soon. Or ever.

Have this version as well as the Wii one.
Yeah the change to the more anime aesthetic is definitely far less charming.
...i should grab the Wii port on Steam..

Fortunately, there's a PC version of the original release these days, the changes made to the Vita version were kind of stupid

Hopefully this just means it's going to go up under a different publisher. What was the extra content?

This is always a little disconcerting. I paged through a bunch of his most recent posts and didn't see anything particularly inflammatory in the past week.

I wish reasons for bans were more easily displayed.
same i looked through as well, and Now it says he was permanently banned, im so confused
