Ni no Kuni: Wrath Of The White Witch Will Be Available On PSN
Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch is only a week away. JRPG fanatics everywhere are counting the days.
While the game boasts elements of old-school role-playing goodness, we didn't know if it would embrace the modern-day downloadable feature. In other words, we had no idea if Level-5 and Sony would make the game available digitally on the PlayStation Store.
Good news: they are. According to a recent Tweet from Level-5 product manager Scott Strichart, Ni no Kuni will indeed be available on the PSN in digital format. The only downside is that it may not be up on the Store on the same day as the physical copy hits store shelves (January 22). "If it's not the same day, it's not far behind," Strichart wrote. We'll have to wait and see when Wrath of the White Witch lands an official PSN release date; here's hoping it'll be before the month is out. Perhaps the following week, on January 29 when the Store updates again...?
Of course, considering the targeted audience for this game, I'm willing to bet that the vast majority are far more interested in owning the actual disc and box. Am I right?

Won't be able to get it day 1 because I used a coupon code to get money off at Newegg but I won't be able to play until the weekend anyway. Looking forward to Ben's review.

Regarding it being on the PSN, I am all for it, I don't know why people would prefer to buy PS3 games on download (Epsecially with the prices often they start out The retail price + half ontop of that too!) But if it gives this game more attention I am all for it, I really don't want this game to slip under the radar.

P4G should give me that RPG fix soon. Am 25 hours into Zero Escape: Virtues Last Reward on the Vita and I can't describe how brilliant that is.
Hope Ni no Kuni gets some good publicity and sales whatever way you want to buy it.

As soon as I need a game to play I will be buying Zero Escape Virtues Last Reward! I have heard nothing but stellar things about it.

I personally want the disc-version, but considering how hyped I am for this game, I might just have to grab the digital version AND the retail version later when it comes out.

The game is very kiddy, but I'm sure hardcore JRPG or RPGs fans can enjoy it. It reminds me a little of Dragon Quest Vlll. The good ol' days @_@

I buy a lot of games and I don't like to manage giant stacks of game cases and hunt for the disc I want. Also having a terrible two daughter means that she will frequently make a mess out of physical disc collections and get stuff lost. Having all my games loaded onto a big PS3 hard drive is much simpler for my situation.
