Incomming first killer app (aside from Wii Sports and Paper Mario, I mean).

Any chance you could post the other 3?

Probably not. It looks like art from a third party (not in a bad way, it's great, it just doesn't look official).

Which probably means it's hentai.

Which means he couldn't post it.

Yeah. I don't know. It's one of the 4 pictures I've seen so I grabbed it.

I don't think a US date has been said yet?

No but its been announced for NA and its been hinted at for this year.

Yes, he most certainly couldn't.

Really I've only seen the two official arts, like this:

The one in my av (which is her butt sticking out in the rest of it):

Then two in-game shots. Haven't really found anything else.

I'm not really good at searching for pictures for the most part. I'll look for an hour+ and maybe find one that I like.
 
So if you do find some that may be cool, I'm all ears(?).

Have any previews or interviews said how text-heavy this game is? If it is rather straightforward to get through, it shouldn't be too hard to play through the import.
 
I still wonder just how well this game will see in Japan. The question is whether they will willingly buy a game that is so heavily based on action, and is on rails.

Being on the wii certainly does not guarantee third-party sale success, as most third-party games in Japan have shown. It's highly likely that being Dragon Quest, this game will sell very well, but as I said just because it's on wii doesn't mean it will automatically do great.

No but being Dragon Quest will raise it to the level of attention it needs to sell really well to the Wii audience. Its a combination of all 3 factors.

The technical term for what you are looking at is zettai ryouiki (kinda NSFW).

Farflung information-gathering networks, a ravenous hunger for current events and cultural ambiguity waiting to be cleared, and I use it to nitpick Japanese pervnerd slang.

While this girl probably could be described as that, even in official art isn't she wearing her skirt a bit high for it to be a great example? I know, I know, the sample shots on the site you linked, but the further up you can see the less distinct it is.

All in all, she'd probably be a bit better off with lower socks and then a lower skirt.

Is this fanart? Why are her eyes blue/green?

Heterochromia is hot now. Read your memos more often, it's been building for like half a decade.

Hmmm nice boxart, but I'm hoping my regional box has a bit more colour in the background when it's released here
