YESYESYES First time officially in Europe! I hope.

They must be pleased with the response to the first two then. Apparently they were the highest selling PS1 Classics in February but fell off the top ten in March, similair to US charts.

Data transfer probably won't be possible though...

And I really need to make more "there's currently no news" posts, cause every time I do there's news a few days later.

[Antimatzist]

Do you have PS Store Charts for February in Europe? I can't find any. And they're both not in the March charts, but for EU, they also list PS1 and PS2 classics in the same charts.

In the US, Suikoden isn't in the Top Ten because there are a ot of sales involving PS Classics, and if people can buy great games for some bucks, they'll do it.

They had some data trouble that meant they never released the charts, but they're in the comments for March along with the March rankings (18th and 19th).

Excellent news but Konami has taught me to be cautious when it is about Suikoden. I wonder (and maybe the real question here is:) if they are just shaking the tree to collect apples (meaning money ) or if they are planning something more
Aaanyway, happy to hear Suikoden news

Greetings to all suiko fans

Any Suikoden news is good news. Bringing this to Europe though will be smashin'. Saves me having to stick straws, tape and tissue in my PS2 to assist Swap Magic...

Thanks, Raww!

In any case, if Konami just wants some money for these or if it's something to gauge interest in the series I don't really mind either way. Maybe it's just their way to celebrate the seires' anniversary this year. But if Suikoden IV also gets announced, then I'm starting to look forward to TGS...

It's now also rated by the German rating board USK. So basically only the Australian one is missing for a PAL release.

I highly doubt this is gonna lead to an S6, just a money grab. As long as their releases hook new fans I'd be pretty happy.

As one of the many Europe based Suikoden fans who never got to play Suiko III I'm very, very happy to see this news. Much as I've enjoyed my recent 4th and 5th completions of the first two games on the Vita, I haven't had a 'new' Suikoden fix since Suiko V so...

Welp. It's coming to the U.S. next week.

EU is likely to follow.

[Raww Le Klueze]

And EU is also getting it tomorrow.

Nice, finally! Now finally get to Tactics and V and, well release IV as well.

Also, Konami confirms that since it's the US version we're getting data transfer will be impossible from the PS Classics of Suikoden I & II.

There is a PS3 save available on Gamefaqs right at the start with data loaded that *should* work though. Though you will be stuck with "Mirai" as the name for the Flame Champ and don't know what names he used for Suikoden II's hero and army.
