This is not an April Fools day joke despite the rampant threads.

I don't like the fact that they're sticking to the "Final Fantasy Fables" label...but, whatever will make it sell. And $39? Quite a turn around from their 'premium' priced DS games.

At $39 it may be afirst day (or rather, week) purchase for me since I don't believe there's anything else I want slated for a July release.

Well, that will be on my list. Sounds interesting.



I'll have to get a Wii, but it will be one of my games.



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

Hmm the DS game was only ok aimed a bit to much at Kids for me, like a starter RPG hopefully this one has more depth too it, but i will likely wait for FF:CC unless the reviews say this game has good depth.



Yes. Thank You square enix. I'm buying this the first chance I get. $39.99 as well.
