September 30th marks the Japanese release of Nihon Falcom’s latest JRPG, Tokyo Xanadu for PlayStation Vita. It is a promising game with a Persona vibe, and an action filled battle system. So what’s the crux? Well Tokyo Xanadu is yet to be announced for localization. This has apparently caused Falcom fans who really want the game to be localized to send a lot of tweets to XSEED Games, a known localizer, as well as publisher of many Falcom games in North America.
Production Coordinator and Editor Hatsuu over at XSEED Games sent out the following tweets to fans yesterday:
hi people I desperately want to work on Tokyo Xanadu and while I love the XSEED twitter tweets about it, the boss doesn’t see them, lmao

If you DO want the boss to see such things, you can bug him relentlessly (but sweetly) on our XSEED Facebook or at comments@xseedgames.com

XSEED Games has localized Falcom titles such as Ys: The Ark of Naphitism, and The Legend of Heroes series before, so it is not impossible to think that fan demand might give Falcom the chance to have Tokyo Xanadu available in the West as well.
Do you guys want to see a Tokyo Xanadu localization happen? Feel free to tell us in the comments.
