I felt this had discussion potential, but it got quickly swept past with other news these past few days. Anyway.

They're gonna localize Tempest so everyone can enjoy the badness of it.
For reals though I'm hoping for PSone classics. _________________

More Tales ports? Old game re-released as digital downloads? Manga brought over? The Symphonia OVA dubbed? _________________ Icon via iconography. |

I'd love all the PS games to be on PSN....that's what I'm expecting. I'd love to get ToE on PSN. But I can't really see them localizing old games. Maybe Symph OVA/manga? _________________

Agreed. I'll buy it even though I already once it twice. I'll do the same for Destiny.
Perhaps we'll get Rebirth or DestinyPS2 in an import section of the PS2Classics?
If not, then maybe a digital version of RM1? _________________

Now that the Western mobile phone technology finally caught up with the Japanese one of last decade Namco is proud to offer a Tales phone subscription and translating all Tales of Mobile entries.

Maybe they'll announce localization for the Vita games? _________________ "Don't let it end like this...Tell them I said something." Pancho Villa

Weren't they wary of localizing Vita games due to the low sales in Japan? _________________

It will be the most shocking surprise of all.
They'll update the banner. _________________ SOON.

I think it could be a few things:
-An LE for Xillia (w/Teepo plush, pls)
-Xillia 2 announcement (they did say they would gauge TOX's success, but I have a hard time believing they haven't started working on it yet)
-Older titles on PSN as PSOne/PSN classics. RM hitting PSN might also ahppen.
About the last option, it might not happen with ToD and ToE. Namco has had talks of doing remakes to spread older games worldwide; perhaps ToE is about to get a remake (finally) and I doubt they would put the original on PSN right before the remake came. Same with ToD but a port (doesn't need a remake).
As for us seeing older games on PSN that we've never gotten before ... highly doubt it. I'd much rather they focus on bringing us new games than catching up with past ones that will probably be remade anyway.
As for the "VESPERIA PS3" that has already started cropping up ... Now that Namco has released Graces f on PSN, they are evidently considering digital distribution for games. Vesperia PS3 would be POSSIBLE on PSN, though I don't think a digital only distribution would exactly change the stakes that much. That being said, this year is the game's 5th anniversary and that sounds like a reasonable time for an exclusivity contract to last, so ...
(yeah, isn't happening anyway)

I actually wouldn't be that surprised to see a Tales of Mobile compilation app come to iOS/Android or something like that (in Japan). _________________ Gaming in 2013:

All? No, they just bring over the best one of the bunch.

Isn't that literally the exact same game as Phantasia GBA?
Or did they manage to make it even worse? _________________ SOON.

Work together with Falcom to deliver the best crossover the entire world shall ever see?
It will be so awesome, that everyone would implode after finishing the game. _________________
