Original Story (January 28 at 7:10 p.m. Central):
Good things come to those who wait. Capcom delivered a special announcement for Breath of Fire fans on its blog, revealing that the PSP version of Breath of Fire III is finally coming to PSN in North America.
Previously, North American fans never had the chance to play the PSP version of the game, although they did have the chance to play it originally on PS1. However, this marks the first time you can download it off PSN and play it on either your PSP, Vita, or PSTV. The announcement comes just under ten years after the PSP version saw release in Europe.
The game will cost $9.99 and will release sometime this February. Capcom said it would update on more specifics soon.

Our Take
Breath of Fire remains one of the beloved RPG series of yesteryear, and fans were pining for III to release on PSN. I'm not sure how well it's aged, but I'm sure I'll be picking it up when it launches in February. I missed out on it the first time around, so I want to see what it's all about.
