12/15/2008: "Dissidia Available in Japan This Thursday"
Just a quick reminder that Dissidia: Final Fantasy will go on sale on December 18th in Japan. For those considering importing this title (which, like all PSP games, is region-free), we recommend Play-Asia, which will carry both the regular version and the PSP bundle.
Some notable Dissidia merchandise will follow in the coming weeks and months. Among them are the Original Soundtrack (which will be available in both regular and limited edition versions) on December 24th and Trading Arts in February 2009. On sale now are Dissidia-themed Potions, the latest in Square Enix and Suntory's line of limited edition, gross-tasting "health" drinks.
Meanwhile, Famitsu has reviewed Dissidia, giving it a respectable 36/40, and according to this IGN report (previously mentioned here) today's episode of popular Japanese show Game Center CX will feature a five-minute Dissidia trailer, which will include a surprise at the end.
