Namco Bandai Announces Tales of Graces Recall

GracesWii by Shawn

After reports earlier this month that Namco Bandai was working on a bug fix for the various issues in Tales of Graces, the company has announced publicly on their corporate website that they will be issuing a recall. Tales of Graces was released last December and was the first official main entry in the series on the Wii.

The original version of Tales of Graces was ridden with numerous bugs, most of which only appeared when a player went through the game a second time. Due to most of the games in the series requiring a second playthrough, it's not unexpected that the company issued a formal recall.

The website lists ten bugs in total, all of which had been discovered by fans shortly after the game's release in Japan. The specifics on the program weren't announced today, but Namco Bandai did state that the recall would not take place through retailers, instead using a delivery serviced called Hikitoribin, where a delivery person delivers the fixed version and takes the old disc in exchange. In the statement, Namco Bandai apologized for the problems and promised to increase their quality control in the future.

Tales of Graces Bugs Fixed

GracesWii by Shawn

It appears that Namco Bandai has issued corrected copies of Tales of Graces which fix the many bugs that were present. The original version of the game was infamous for having a few bugs which could either freeze the game or stop completionists from obtaining every item.

The original versions of the game had the code RVL-STGJ-0A-0, while the updated version have the code RVL-STGJ-0A-1. While Namco Bandai currently has no replacement plan in place for exchanging a bugged copy for a fixed one, the website linked to in the source for this post shows how to contact the company to get a replacement.

While there has been no announcement of a North American or European release of the game, if there was a localization, it would almost assuredly use this fixed version as a basis for it.
