I got a Japanese copy on release. I'll admit this port has plenty of issues, but I would say most of them are really not that bad. People are bashing on the game for no real reason. There was definitely some lag issues on PS4 before the 1.01 patch which has since been solved. Sure, Unity looks like a trashcan on fire; but I really don't give a shit when I just want to play Nocturne without hooking up my PS2. And yeah, I'll concede that the fusion system is outdated by modern SMT standards; but I also don't give a shit as that's part of the charm of replaying these old JRPGs for me. Otherwise, Nocturne is Nocturne. It's just a good game.

Ultimately, if you have never played Nocturne before and are just interested in checking it out but don't own a CRT or can't be assed to set up PCSX2 this is a decent way to play the game. I would skip the PS3 release as it's just emulated anyway and if you're going to emulate then just learn how to use PCSX2.
