I never thought that "RPG"+"Soccer" would equate to "Awesome" in my mind, but damn. What are the odds of a Western release?

Europe does. I'd say the chances of a English translation are pretty good (and there is no region lock, right?).

I must say this would be the reason for me to pick up a DS over a PSP.

Europe doesn't like "soccer".
Europe likes FOOTBALL!

NSider · Dec 4, 2007

Nintendo should definitely publish this in the west. It has a better chance of success and much more appeal than Professor Layton. Even in America.

We should spam NOA and Level 5 about this.

Damn...
I apologize to every European for calling Football "soccer". I will proceed to punish myself for the insult. Thank you.

Anasui Kishibe · Dec 4, 2007

looks..interesting. In a good way.

JoeFu · Dec 4, 2007

I don't really get it...

Is it kinda like that really really old Slam Dunk game? Like when you encounter someone, it goes to a mode where you choose what to do?

Also, 6 minutes of gameplay footage = 6 hours of loading... that site loads soooooooooooooooo slow.

turk128 · Dec 4, 2007

Ditto Joefu's question.

And someone needs to youtube this (saw only half before stopping 'cause of lagg).

Dalauz · Dec 4, 2007

Its FUTBOL fyi.

(and ORSAI instead of "offside")

FIFA and PES sell pretty great here (not Euro numbers of course, but FIFA in particular is a huge title). But as usual NA will get overlooked I'm sure. Here's hoping Europe gets it so I can just import.

slow site is sloooow

Yes. It has many areas where you must be quick with the stylus, but the "encounters" are handled by choosing one of 2 or 3 actions.

Well, South America of course likes football (soccer) more than anything.

Most americans like football, the only ones who call it soccer are from the US. From Chile here. And american football sucks.

Teasel · Dec 4, 2007

so i guess i'm the only one who found the two japanese guys more interessing than the game itself

was that really necessary?

anyway, ive had my eye on this game after seeing it on cinematech, and i must say, it makes me eager to learn the rules of soccer/futbol. now if ea or someone can get on a eyeshield 21 american football game, i 'd be in sport heaven

Error · Dec 4, 2007

hahahahahah that vid was funny

the dude with the blue shirt "FIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH TORNADOOOOOOOOOOOOO"

TiVo · Dec 4, 2007

Reminds me of EyeShield 21.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PHWsRGuhcds

And if they are not bringing that to the US then this aint coming.

I said it before and I will say it again:

WHY DO DEVELOPERS HATE MAKING MONEY!!!

Capcom had the sense to put English & Japanese text in Phoenix Wright which is a TEXT HEAVY game but the EyeShiled 21 guys among other developers can't do it for ACTION HEAVY games with light text. Explain that to me please.

mcgarrett · Dec 4, 2007

It might do OK here. While soccer certainly isn't big on a professionial level, it's very popular as a children's sport.

Isn't that based on an anime series though? Wouldn't that make it more expensive to license than this game?

TiVo · Dec 4, 2007

AFAIK
Nintendo bought the rights for Eyeshiled 21 in 2004 and did GBA versions. DS version was JAPAN only. And they did a Wii version of Eyeshield 21.

The game's football side is really cool from playing the little demo including in Prof. Layton 2. More details here if you're interested. The RPG side is what I'm more interested in, though, but that part was quite short in the demo. Seems fun from what I could gather and the visual style is definitely very appealing.

gimz · Dec 4, 2007

so you can kinda see how Winning Elevene gonna works on Wii

Definitely, just what I had been thinking. When Konami announced that feature I thought it would be bloody confusing, but it becomes second nature tapping the stylus where you want the ball to go, then directing various team mates around by swiping lines here there and everywhere.

There's been an Eyshield game on PS2/PSP as well, none of them made it to the US.

Shinobix · Dec 4, 2007

Mexico likes futbol (soccer) a lot too.

Brak · Dec 4, 2007

I love the concept for this game, but the controls seem... subpar.

I'm having flashbacks of that stupid water polo game in Final Fantasy X.

CurseoftheGods · Dec 4, 2007

This game has a good chance of being released in Europe, right? I'll just import it then.

TreIII · Dec 4, 2007

AMAZING. Probably my second most anticipated DS game of 2008, right after Kunio-kun DodgeBall!

Can't wait. And anything that has "God Hand" in it has to be awesome.

theultimo · Dec 4, 2007

Awesome, the world needs another Tecmo World Cup/Captain T. It might look weird, but this is one of the best gameplay experiences I have ever seen.

Kaako · Dec 4, 2007

That's pretty freaking sweet. The ingame little cutscenes remind me of Captain Tsubasa and they even got some of the moves from Shaolin(KungFu) Soccer!
I'll definitely keep an eye out for this game. Thanks for update.

Also, do you guys know when the localized version will be available?

akenatone · Dec 4, 2007

this game reminds me of the old tsubasa nes games. I hope some publisher out there (Xseed??) does the right thing and brings this game outside japan.
