DHGF: While the concept of remaking 2010 game in 2014 sounds absurd, I don’t think anyone can argue just how much this game benefits from the added touches. Atelier Rorona Plus: The Alchemist of Arland updates the visuals, adds new dungeons, more playable characters, and both PS3 and Vita editions are cross compatible with each other.

FFX is still one of my favourite games of all time... It's a shame more top notch JRPGs don't regularly come out anymore
It sure seems that the Vita has become the Niche gamers place to go. I am kinda sad that my Vita just sits in its case, but alas, there are others who have a lot of reason to play it.
I've played through Persona 4G, Lost Dimension, and Ys: Memories of Celceta and they are all fantastic.
Michibiku's Jenni Lada writes, "JRPGs become more predictable as they age. The mechanics are still sound, the stories still good, and the general concept still appreciated in a world where open-world everything is becoming the norm. Think of it as perpetual familiarity. We now what’s going to happen. Gust’s Atelier chronicles can fall within the bounds of predictable, but the series’ focus on individuals sets it apart."
Siliconera: New Atelier Rorona for Nintendo 3DS is a remake of Gust’s popular PlayStation 3 RPG with a new style. All of the characters from Rorona to guests Totori and Meruru have a cutesy, super deformed style.
