I am so surprised to hear about parents and their stance on piracy. Their kids want games, and instead of buying them what they can/telling them no, they feel it’s ok to steal. Parents with r4 cards, and other flash cards. Parents downloading games illegally for their kids. They say games are just too expensive, so this is the route they’ve gone. Not exactly the best example for your kids, is it?

Bandai-Namco is hoping for an impressive bit of sales for Tales of Hearts. They seem to have a lot of faith in this game, since they are hoping for somewhere around 400,000 units sold in Japan. Coming off of the well-received Tales of Innocence, Bandai-Namco is promoting Tales of Hearts through various events. They want to continue the good buzz, and are hoping that preorder bonuses and choice of version will make for big impact at retail.

Finally, some small news on the next Tales entry on the Wii. Remember, this is going to be a main entry in the Tales series, not a side-story. According to Bandai-Namco, the game will be fully 3d, and it should be closely related to Tales of Vesperia on 360.
