What about Cry On?
Pity I neither have the DS nor the Wii to get the games. I sure do have a large backlog of these systems.
That's all I know of so far, but I'm sure more'll pop up.
My goal is to finish every MegaTen game I have incomplete before P3 comes out.
Not easy.

[spoiler:033ca68df4]I got nothin', although Rogue Galaxy seems like it might be a nice diversion.[/spoiler:033ca68df4]
ok, now that we got that over with, definitely Blue Dragon.
Ha ha. You suck for not being in countries that matter.
FFVI Advance
Cry On

It's got to have more life in it than that... :?
you know, its 7 years old.
I don't think its replacement is a very worthy successor.
wiily?
Dude, I think I've heard of that one! Isn't that one where the main character's town gets attacked in the beginning of the game by the bad guys? The one were there is a world spanning religion that is EVIL? The one were the game devolves from the rather normal, grounded plot at the beginning of the game into bizarre, existentialist ramblings at the end? I think I may have played that one, or at least watched someone else play it.

I still have to catch up on 2006. Still want to get Devil Summoner sometime among many others. Have to finish FFXII and work on 2nd playthrough of VP2. Backlogs ahoy.
I think though Persona 3 is on the top of my priorities this year.
I suppose that depends on how many are incomplete and how far you're in with each of them. My 1st time through Nocturne clocked about 80+ hours but i wanted to get pretty much everything and go for the true demon ending.
Rogue Galaxy is an interesting game, and I kind of have a love hate relationship with it. I'll try to be a good mood when i write the review for that one.
Izuna is just a chore, but if you like Mystery Dungeon games then it's sure to please.
Nocturne, Persona 1, and Persona 2: EP. I've finished Digital Devil Saga 1&2(miraculously) and Devil Summoner. I'm near the end of P2, I need to completely restart P1(haven't played it in forever), and I want to do the same thing for Nocturne: full completion.
11 months to get it to Europe (from Japan)!
...
This is roughly my stance too.
Ah Ar Tonelico. I had almost forgotten about that. It's out early february right?
It's good that the characters are memorable as I like to connect with the characters and a off the wall story sounds fun.
As for Izuna, I don't really mind Mystery Dungeon kinda crawls or crawls in general. It's a nice change at times.
Are you going for the true demon ending? Well i suppose doing everything does require the true demon ending. I want to play it again sometime and go for a different ending (probably the neutral ending it sounded pretty cool) and a different build for the main Hero as well as a different demon team. Having a elementalist worked pretty well with me (Magma Axis and Fire Enchance Love~) but I'd like to try something different this time around.
I've just started P1 recently but I haven't found much time to devote to it. Just wish snow queen quest was in it as well.
I also need to get DDS1 and 2 sometime when flow of macca is better.
Yeah, I didnt list this before mostly because its kind of a given. Its almost like the snes era of awesomeness all over again.

OH GOD OH GOD OH GOD!
No, you can see the enemies running around and avoid them. Reminds me of Grandia 2. You can also use items on them, sneak up on them, etc... to give you an edge.
I'm looking forward to this and Lost Odyssey.
I'm not sure, really. :P I've just been responding to Reason questions on a personal level. So far, I'm pretty sure Makenai's a neutral. I didn't blow off the Gozu-Tennoh(telling someone ten times taller than you 'no': bad idea), but I sure wouldn't join them. Same with the other factions.
I don't really like how any of them function so far, but I think I still have a lot to learn(I'm just leaving the Manikin village).
What does the True Demon Ending entail? Killing all the Fiends?
It's dated, and was pretty poorly localized according to SMT fans, but it still stood out as original to me back then. And the cast are still cool, mislocalized or not.
I thought random battles with guns, swords, and demons was the coolest thing ever when I first played it.
