Those of you who are really into tactical RPGs may remember a game by the name of Vantage Master that, unfortunately, never saw the light of day in the US. Well, with the new PSP version entitled Vantage Master Portable  on its way to Japanese players,  developer Nihon Falcom has some new updates in the form of eye candy. The visual feast follows after the jump.

The developers that brought us Legend of Heroes: Sora no Kiseki, Nihon Falcom has announced that they will be bringing Vantage Master Portable over to the Sony's PlayStation Portable. Finally, we were able to find out when it will be released. Do take note that this release is for Japan only.

Details of the release in the jump!

If you liked Nihon Falcom's anime-rendered PSP offerings, then you may want to keep your eyes peeled for their future offering, Vantage Master Portable. This PSP port of the hit Vantage Master PC franchise includes PSP-only features such as ad hoc multiplayer and more. More details in the full article!

We learned a couple of days ago that Nihon Falcom is planning to release Sora no Kiseki: Material Collection Portable, a UMD filled with various Legend of Heroes VI goodies for PlayStation Portable. Today, we have more info regarding Sora no Kiseki: Material Collection Portable as well as a new compilation UMD for the franchise.

Aside from the Gurumin demo, Material Collection Portable will also contain a demo for Sora no Kiseki, a soundtrack with 147 songs, over 70 wallpapers, and all movies from the FC and SC games. It is scheduled for a Japan-only release on December 20 for 3,800 Yen (US$ 32.55).

For those not familiar with the series, Nihon Falcom is also planning to release Sora no Kiseki Perfect Edition in Japan which contains the full FC and SC titles as well as the above mentioned Material Collection Portable. It will also be released on December 20 for 11,970 Yen or around US$ 102.52.

Fans of The Legend of Heroes series should definitely check this out: Nihon Falcom just released a goodie-laden UMD filled to the brim with Sora no Kiseki game goodness. It's not a new Sora no Kiseki title, but a fan UMD that contains several PSP wallpapers (some of which are calendars), PSP themes, cut scenes and background music. The best part? It's got a Gurumin demo as well.

An extra-content disc getting published for a game franchise usually means that it's doing quite well in the market, and we're happy that Sora no Kiseki is getting all the love it deserves (hey, a double-UMD game does mean that the game is worth checking out, in epic proportions). Sora no Kiseki: Material Collection Portable (that's the name of the UMD goodie bag) most probably would suffer the fate of most supplementary discs and not get published in other regions, but hey, we can always dream, right?

If you're one of the PSP owners who had a hard time looking for a copy of Gurumin: A Monstrous Adventure when it came out in the U.S. back in February, you'll be happy to hear that the extremely limited supplies of the game have gotten a huge boost.

Mastiff LLC, who localized and published the original Nihon Falcom title, announced today that supply has been increased at a number of retail locations nationwide. Apart from being more widely available in retailers across North America, there's also an extra treat. The suggested retail price of Gurumin: A Monstrous Adventure has been cut in half, driving the price down to only US$ 19.99.

"Between the increased availability and the economical price, RPG fans should now have no trouble getting their hands on Gurumin," said Bill Swartz, Head Woof of Mastiff, LLC.
