@SaviorX: Yeah, it's true that the game is pretty much being sent out to die, people have showed no interest at all, and I still stand by the thought that this is because they unveil their games too late. If you want a new IP to be successful you have to hype it and make people aware of its existence, quality and most importantly give them a reason to purchase the game.
With Zelda, Mario, etc, you don't need that. With new IP's you do, and that's why Wii Fit/Play/Sports have been so successful, because of their huge ad campaigns and also because of their broader appeal. The other new IP's this gen have been sent out to die and were not even noticed by the biggest Nintendo fans out there, when in fact due to their smaller appeal, they should be getting more promotion.
Anyways, this is a game made by Sandlot, which isn't a 1st/2nd party team, so if they wasted anyone's time it was theirs. The other concerning thing is that we only know what 25% of their 1st/2nd party teams are making, with the other whooping 75% being really silent, I don't know what's taking them so long to announce stuff.
Hopefully The Last Story and Xenoblade are not sent out to die like their past games have. It would shameful cosidering how much talent there is behind them.
