What do they mean with "pretty assy"? It's probably a typical American expression, is that for ass kicking or something?

Have to say myself the game does kick ass, has a few "buts" though... in a figurative manner of speaking not literarl he he. The game is a lot of fun.

"- A Nintendo franchise will be brought back from the dead and shown at E3"

What oh what, spit it out can't wait!!

"- DIRECT QUOTE “There is a Tales of Symphonia sequel coming to Wii.” - no one knows if they were kidding or not when this quote was made"

Call an ambulance the dizziness I'm having right now, must not be healthy...

@Wiigirl76: Maybe it´s Icarus, they talked to Miyamoto about a Kid Icarus sequel a year ago and he asked:

Miyamoto: "If we made this game, would you go out and buy it?"

IGN: "Absolutely."

I hope it is Icarus... this could be a game for the older crowd, too.

Don't hold your breath. Maybe it's Ice Climber

TALES OF SYMPHONIA... wOOt!!!... *Is Calling friends RIGHT NOW to let em hear about this!, They are gonna be SO PLEASED!*

A few months ago there were rumors of a Tales of Symphonia sequel called "Tales of Harmonia", I wonder if that could be the name? :)

This is REAL good news! Hope everyone confirmed at E3 :)

Yep that's right! And they we're also mentioning a remake of Tales of the Abyss for the WII and a Tales of Phantasia 2 for the DS back then. Oh please let this be true as well! But so far I just try to stay sceptic.

Hopefully Sword of Legendia is a different game from the sequel of Tales of Symphonia and "still" in production.

I think assy means that it sucks. It doesn`t matter though, many of the "professional" journalists forget what games are made for : fun. As long as you have fun, it doesn`t matter if the game is a masterpiece or not.

Very happy to hear about ToS sequel, I REALLY hope it is made based on Mithos past.

I dunno what to take of the TOTA release for the Wii, as I'm near buying the PS2 version as well as Radiata Stories.

Here is the update on August 10th 2007:
