Beta testing, the alpha was only done on their end.

The games Vita release is the 28th of next month, so you won't be able to pick it up any time soon. I imagine you can probably find the premium box set for PC at electronics stores scattered around, but someone native to Japan will have to answer that.

Head down to Akihabara. You should be able to find both the PC version right now and the Vita version when it comes out at a shop there. Heck, you could probably go to any old Yodobashi Camera and pick up the PC version.

There are TONS of stores and browsing them is rather fun but you'd have the best luck going to the Yodobashi Camera from Akihabara station. Just leave the station from the central exit and it should put you right where you need to be.

Like Mike said, Yodobashi Camera (either in Akihabara or Ueno) would be the safest place to hunt it down. Pretty much anyone knows where these huge buildings are located, so just ask anyone.
Game should cost around 5600JPY (http://www.yodobashi.com/ec/category/index.html?query=&cate=&word=%E3%83%95%E3%82%A1%E3%83%B3%E3%82%BF%E3%82%B7 %E3%83%BC%E3%82%B9%E3%82%BF%E3%83%BC%E3%82%AA%E3%8 3%B3%E3%83%A9%E3%82%A4%E3%83%B3%EF%BC%92).


Also, make sure you take a stroll around the computer stores in Akihabara. When I visited last summer, PSO2 was pretty much on every computer over there, running the graphics test. (I really wanted to snatch one of those huge cardboard HUnewearl prints...)

And if you take your time hanging around akihabara, but either other peripheral areas of tokyo , you can find lower. If lucky a possible discount happens. Take a look on every videogame /dvd store (selling videogames too) on sight, walking around, and ask. ;)
