He's a pretty swell guy in my books anyway.
So this is what he's been talking about? I wonder who's developing it.

I can't believe it's a new game honestly, but I'm happy that it's already been trademarked worldwide!
 
Unless I am mistaken how is Mistwalker making Wii games if they were funded by Microsoft? Conversely why are they making no PS3 games?

:lol So is this Mistwalker's spring game?

It's not coming out in Spring. It's coming out in 2010. Starting from March the website will have a developer's blog, so I guess that's when the info will really start rolling in, like Sakaguchi said.

I meant it's the game they will reveal in spring.

So if Xenoblade is Monado and The Last Story is new then Cosmic Walker isn't anywhere on Nintendo's release calendar.

It was sacrificed to appease the gods. WHO GIVES A FUCK! TWO MAJOR NEW RPGS IN 2010 PUBLISHED BY NINTENDO AND YOU WANT TO KNOW WHERE SOME SHITTY SPACE WALKING GAME IS?!?!?! :lol
 
Seriously, this is great. Takahashi AND Sakaguchi RPG's for 2010/2011/
Never :'(
? Sign me up. Like Xenoblade this seems to have pretty good music too. Any pictures?

Dang! Nintendo bringing it with the games today.

Are we to assume Nintendo are publishing this then?
The bottom of the Website has "(c) 2010 Nintendo / MISTWALKER", so I'd say yes.
 
The logo reminds me of Final Fantasy and the music is really great.

Sooo ... looking at Mistwalkers history ... This is Squaresoft all over again?
 
Ahh, Sakaguchi and his titles names, should have seen this coming. Not much to comment, nice publisher for Mistwalker but who is developing, logo looks good, new RPG is welcomed, music sounds good.

I fuckin knew it :lol Oh god, people will be so pissed about this.
Yeah the general consence was the trade marks where for the english name of Last Window.

While I'm kind of annoyed, no doubt both games would be good.

Looking at there past titles, AWAY was pretty awesome, but the others seem to be not that great.

Any information for the game? or just a splash screen?

It seems interesting from the logo, but you know you can't trust a book by its cover.

Wasn't this listed a while back as coming with a "Nintendo device"?

People were speculating it was either going to come with a MotionPlus or the Vitality sensor.
 
Been looking forward to finding out what this was. The chances of a western release should be pretty high considering Mistwalker's involvement!

If it still is, its possible originally it was going to be a MotionPlus to try and get more people to buy the game, but then again this game is about "emotion" so I guess the Vitality Sensor isn't so far fetched.
On the same token Nintendo wouldn't let a hardware element be released on a "hardcore" title, I guess we will see it with a Nintendo title before this game if it is what is packaged with it.

I miss Cozy Okada. He's done much more for me in the past decade than has Sakaguchi and Cosmic Walker looked like an original game. Anyway though, I'm not trying to make this an Okada vs. Sakaguchi thread and I have to say this news is very exciting, not to mention incredibly surprising given what everyone thought about Mistwalker's contract with Microsoft.

Awesome music, really reminiscent of FFX to me.

So do I get to do a limit break if my heart rate goes up?

Okada is too busy making shitty cellphone games now. He made his bed when he decided to leave Atlus, so now he'll just have to sleep on it and be content with the choices he made.
