Forums - Nintendo - Where is the hype for Mistwalker's DS games?

bboyinterloper on 27 January 2008

I am a shameless graphic whore and when I saw ASH: Arcahic Sealed Heat, I was blown away. How come I have never heard of this game? If it was not for the IGN top ten anticipated games listing ASH, I would have never heard of this game. C'mon, Ash is the first Nintendo DS game to be released on a 2 gigabit cartridge in Japan! The video pre-rendering process for the gameplay in ASH makes the final fantasy DS remakes look shoddy. Sure the 2D artwork design is lacking and the double tapping is annoying but still, I am starving for a graphic powerhouse RPG.

 What about Sonic RPG? what about Dragon Quest IX? What about Final Fantasy IV? Who gives a care.

 Give me ASH, Give me Blue Dragon DS, Give me Away ~Tsuresarareta Hitobito~

 

Here's a link to the ASH videos. http://www.gamebrink.com/blog/2007/09/19/ash-archaic-sealed-heat-video-explosion-all-over-your-face

ASH really isn't that good I've got the Japanese version and it was fun for a while, but it couldn't keep my interest.

if you are a true shameless graphics whore, maybe you should just get Crisis Core. ;)

I don't think anyone is willing to fund Mistwalker's marketing they need.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs

Mistwalker has no hype in Japan and that's where all of their DS games are at the moment. Maybe in overseas there will be some hype, but not until those games get somewhat close to release.

A.S.H. should make it's way here sometime this year. Nothing has been announced though. Away and Blue Dragon DS were postponed in Japan so they probably won't make the light of day here until 2009

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned one of the DS games that rival (surpass in my opinion) A.S.H. graphics....

Tales of Innocence.
