Sometimes I feel that in 2008 I have been singlehandedly supporting Square Enix!
This is probably the best game I have played all of 2008 (and Persona 4 counts for 2009).
It's just fun - fun to collect, fun to work through the story, dialogue is funny - we even had lunchtime pin trades at work, with Vy showing up to trade pins with us across everyone's DS. Selling and buying and leveling up, oh my!
I finished this game and am almost through the "secret reports" bonus chapters.
A great way to reuse the content in each chapter, to give you a set of additional goals to complete using the same content on your 2nd playthrough.
Also this is great for the original story and modern setting. It's caused a lot of people to get excited about visiting or learning about Shibuya as well.
