So there was significance to those Wii devkits that were photoshopped out after all.

Good show.

The thread on Kotaku about this news is amusing. People flaming it...

Game name is irrelevant for me, as long as the gameplay is awesome.

I wonder who they've contracted for it? Artoon, Feelplus, tri-Crescendo, Racjin and Cavia all have Wii experience and have all worked with Mistwalker. Or maybe a Nintendo associated team like Genius Sonority, Brownie Brown or Monolith?

The Wii is a good choice for a big budget AAA jrpg. The jrpg library on the Wii is mainly niche and low-budget thus far (so a big-budget Mistwalker release would stand out) and the Nintendo home console market is an untapped jrpg market waiting to happen.
