My argument is that I refuse to support Namco on this title because I don't want to encourage them to handle future titles like this. I want them to do it the right way, then they can have my money.

What do you mean by the right way? Namco did alot right things in localizing this idolmaster game.
1) They kept the Japanese Voice Acting in the game
2) They kept the Japanese Voice Acting in the OVAs as well.
3) The Translation is pretty good
4) The character's personality are actually captured pretty well in the translation.
5) They kept and retain the Japanese Culture in this game.
This is pretty much everything what an idolmaster fan wanted in a localization. This is why I bought the game.
The only thing to complain really, is that they should of released the U.S version not only on an Apple device (such as an iphone, iPod Touch, iPad, iPad mini, and others), but also on the PSP as well.

It's just that it's overpriced for such a bare bones rhythm game.
Even the original PSP version of Shiny Festa is overpriced when you think about it. But let's see what they do with further localization. I think the next target for them should be Cinderella Girls because social gaming is really big now and it could work out.

That' true. The PSP Version is overprice as well. Some of the DLC Catalogs for Idolmaster 2 are overpriced. This isn't anything new.
Also. Would you rather pay a little extra money to play a fully translated game, so you can understand and enjoy what the idols are saying. Or wait 3 or more years for a fan translation, and by that time Shiny Festa 2 might get released.

OH, SCAMCO. WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYY. T_T
I would buy the game if it were on any OTHER system...I wonder why they chose iOS? I have an iPod Touch 4th generation and it says it's compatible, but with my luck, I'd buy the game only to have it crash every time it tries to load. By the way, for those who have purchased it, how much space does it take up? It seems like it would take up quite a bit.
I'm going to Japan this summer anyways so I might as well pick up the games there, like how I did with SP. I feel like a console/handheld is a more reliable system than an iPhone or iPod.
However, the game is the type of localization any iM@S fan would want. Too bad they just didn't release it on the PSP. Unless this is simply a prelude to things to come...

Ikuto-sama, it takes 2.69 GB of data, not including DLC songs.
