Man, it seems as though every system other than the PS3 is having lots of JRPG support, even the PSP.

What a turnaround from the last couple gens.

Also, it's funny that Vanillaware can make visuals that are anything by vanilla.



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

Ah yes. I love the background art. Anyone remember Heart of Darkness for PC ?

Understanding is the key.

Oboro Muramasa Youtouden
Furai No Shiren 3
Opoona
FF:Chrystal Bearers
ToS:KoR
Fire Emblem:RD
Camelot RPG
Monolith/Nintendo RPG

Anyone has more?

Most will come to the west. Looks like a decent list. I only miss a new Skies of Arcadia (and Chrono Trigger, real Secret of Mana, Lufia, Earthbound/Mother...)

Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!!!

I am so happy. I'm all for more RPGs for the Wii. And Vanillaware making another ARPG is just the icing on the cake.

Please let these game be released in America.

Wow, sounds and looks amazing! The WII definitely needs its share of RPG's to make it look even more like an all around, serious game console and I'm glad they're coming. Hopefully they are going to be "good". Last Furai no Shiren game Nintendo has seen on the console was a remake on the N64 and Japan only, before that Super Famicom / SNES. Furai no Shiren has never been released outside Japan. The DS version might be the first Furai no Shiren game to be released in the West.

 Media Vision (Wild Arms) are doing a Wii exclusive RPG, I think Konami have an untitled RPG though (could have been that fishing RPG though).

 

 And Dragon Quest swords, in some ways.

I changed it, though it worked before for me.
