Wow. I'd forgotten about that. I was even in those threads.
So... this will be on Nintendo's E3 Direct thingy, I assume?
Finally we get some news, have been looking forward to this for some time.

Finalllllly. I've been waiting for this. I love me some Grandia II and I never played 1 so I've been really wanting to get this.
Grandia 1 & 2 is the only game created by takeshi miyaji the creator of this series its look perfect to these two he was not with us anymore, and 3 was by his brother yoichi miyaji (he also the CEO of game arts).
This, Cadence, and maybe SaGa Scarlet Grace all have some odds of being shadow dropped mid conference. It could be a very good week for releases.
I didn't think they were going to do anything else for Grandia II on PC and were just going to release the first game, but the wording seems to indicate they are either updating it or releasing a new version? AFAIK it had a few significant bugs that needed to be ironed out.
I'm expecting digital only with no English VA for SSG, and they've been working on it for almost a year now. So I'm at least expecting a release date at E3 and sometime before the Fall rush at that.
Should show it off in the Direct, followed with "Get your hands on Grandia HD Collection when it releases on the Nintendo eShop right after this Direct! Followed by a retail release on July 9th!"
No digital museum news then :/
I was hoping Grandia 2 would have some of the remaining bugs fixed, but there's no news on that either.
Hopefully it's being saved for E3 proper.
Reminder to people that Grandia 1 is one of the greatest RPGS ever made, and Grandia 2 is very good. If you've never played them, you should.

As much i like Grandia Series.... this is a total lie.... DId they release balance patch or something ?
Cool, maybe I'll manage to finally play Grandia 1 past
I started the game over like four times and that's always when I lose interest and never come back. No particular reason, I don't recall there being a super hard boss there or anything. I just peter out there for some reason. I recall being super hyped because this was back in the day when it was super common for JRPGs that didn't get released outside Japan to be automatically put on a pedestal by weeaboo wannabe types. I remember reading GameFan's review of the JP version of Grandia and practically whipping off to it like it was porn. When it finally got localized in North America on Playstation... yeah, it didn't quite live up to the hype for me. Between that and Lunar, I soon found that Working Designs* JRPGs just weren't my cup of tea. Way too cheerful and upbeat for my tastes.
I had no problem finishing Grandia 2 on Dreamcast. I recall the lead character was pretty edgy. =P
* I meant GameArts... thanks julian =P
the part where you reach The Wall at the End of the World or whatever it was called.

Yeah, I too was kinda shocked that my games were deleted as well, and I can't access them without the client, I guess?
Been thinking about checking out this series, so I'm curious to see how this HD collection turns out. Hopefully it looks good.
Curious to see what Grandia 1 looks like. I played it on Vita and it was absolutely beautiful, I hope it's not a 'smooth' mess in an attempt to look more moder. The original sprites are great.
I'll get this solely for Grandia 2 which I'm sure will look good, all they have to do is up Rez it, the original character models have some nice charm to them.

I would be glad they left it out. I played it last year on ps3....holy moly that thing was a piece of work. Fun battle system though.
About time, looking forward to both for the Switch. I have fond memories of Grandia II back on the Dreamcast as it is one of the few JRPGS I actually played.
