Where in Time is Victor Ireland?!

You mean Jan 2014 right?
It's been roughly 1.5 years I think.

I'm just being silly.

Kinda thought so. But I'm beginning to feel like I've lost track.
Any idea what the longest wait time was for a WD game?

Well we at one point thought we'd hear about it in Jan 2014 when that one magazine was getting released, but turned out it was just an advertisement for the CoH2G PSP linkup feature.
However, Vic actually said we'd hear about it for real in Jan 2015.

Well, Magic Knight Rayearth was announced right around when the Saturn released in the US, and was, if I am not mistaken, the LAST game to be released after the system had been discontinued.

@Fabrizio: Maybe that's why it feels confusing.
@zanth: o.o That's a wait for sure.

So it was announced in 1995, and released in 1998/99? Wow, hope this one doesn't take another 1.5 years...

Am I the only one that's concerned that by the time it does get released, the physical will no longer be an option?

I remember asking Vic that months ago... time will tell.

"Daddy what's a PSP?"

Yeah, it was one of the original 12 announced Saturn games in 1994 in Japan. But I seem to recall reserving a copy at Software Etc. nefore the Saturn released in the US. Wikipedia did confirm it was indeed the last official title in the US. Lots of issues cropped up in localization, including rights issues for the opening song, some of the original code being lost, etc etc.

I'm right there with you on this one. I think the last UMD released in NA was "Pro Evolution Soccer 2014" over half a year ago now...
