Calling All Collectors, Supporters of Physical Media, and Fans of Niche Video Games!

I'll be the first person to admit that I was not blown away by the demo of Holy Invasion of Privacy, Badman!: What Did I Do to Deserve This? when I sampled it at this year's E3. However, the intersting concept and unique look of the quirky PSP game made it an item that would remain on my video game shopping list. When NIS America made the horrendous decision to cancel the game's UMD release in favor of making it available exclusively as a download on the PlayStation Network, you better believe that I was pissed! What did WE do to deserve this?!

 

As an avid collector of video games, this hobby would cease to amuse me if all my weird and exotic games were only available as souless digital downloads. Listening to angry fans that share my view, NIS America unveiled a plan to give Holy Invasion of Privacy, Badman! the UMD release it deserves. If 1,000 pre-orders were made at the RosenQueen Company's online shop, production would begin and the physical copies would be mailed out in December. Consumers have until November 13th to make their voice heard! As of this writing 334 gamers, including yours truly, have placed their orders.

With less than a week to go, I implore everyone that hates digital downloads, all who love unusual and more titles, and any video game collector to go HERE and place a reservation! Twenty dollars is not much for something that will certainly become a bit of a collector's item later down the road. I know quite a few people like myself who would love to have an American copy of Holy Invasion of Privacy, Badman! on their shelves, and with the help of gamers everywhere, this can become a reality! Thank you for your time.

If I had $20 to burn, I'd help out the cause. It doesn't look good though, that's a bunch of preorders needed.

Soulless? The digital download market is hurt good sir. I understand that you personally might want a physical copy of the game but I'm sure plenty of people would be satisfied by a digital version. The medium is heading in this direction in the long run so like it or not it might be good to start getting used to it. All the same I think that them committing to a physical version if a preorder quota is met is a fine compromise and I would support it if I had a PSP.
