I'm not sure where you're getting the DS thing from, but you're right that this one is called Another Code: R - Door of Memories. I guess I shouldn't have called it 2 in the title. Nowhere does it say anything about a DS sequel, though.

I don't remember where or when, but I do remember hearing about there being 2 Another Code games in the works as well. I think it might've been from a list of registered trademarks or something.

Cool, the first was flawed but really fun. Cinq learned a lot since then (see Hotel Dusk) and should hopefully even be better. Anyway the Wii needs these kind of games if it wants to be taken seriously.

Thanks to Aeana for making a thread about this release! Trace Memory/Another Code needs more exposure~ It's an intriguing sleeper-hit for the DS, at the least!

Fuck Nintendo and their fucking awesomeness today. Fuck them.

I hate you, fucking awesome Nintendo.

Can't wait to see the puzzles on this one. Neither Trace Memory or Hotel Dusk had particularly challenging puzzles, but they both made some good use of the hardware for some thinking-out-of-the-box solutions.

Ok, serious question time.

I never played Another Code, but I did play Hotel Dusk. Is this series more focused on dialog like the latter, or is it more of a focus on puzzle solving and interaction? I was terribly disappointed with the pacing and general gameplay of Dusk.

Trace Memory was probably more enjoyable than Hotel Dusk so im glad they are making a sequel to that instead.

Plus i support Adventure games on Wii (Capcom you know what you need to do)

Maybe more puzzles. But theres so much blatant similarities. Even the silly Pop Quiz sections at the end of each chapter.

I knew Hotel Dusk had a dedicated following, but I'm pleasantly surprised to see so many Trace Memory fans here too. I didn't know there was such a contingent.

This was a decent adventure game for DS and I did enjoy it, but does this really need a sequel? And why on Wii?
Click to expand...

why not a sequel, and why not on Wii? :/

If the text/adventure genre is going to expand, it needs to find other platforms~
Solving puzzles that utilize the Wii-mote will be fantastic to try!

Anyways, yay! I loved the first game, these text heavy puzzle story driven adventures are what makes the DS for me.

I never bothered with the first game on the DS because I heard it was painfully easy and short, and I wasn't about to spend money on something that could be beaten in (what I heard) an hour or so. This is looking nice though, hopefully it's better.

It's about 7-8 hours but totally worth it. Such a sweet story, fantastic puzzles that really utilize the DS and a great sense of atmosphere. I loved it.

Anyway, I actually bought the original quite a while back but haven't gone past the ship that lands you on the island.

CING, right?
I liked Trace Memory, and LOVED Hotel Dusk. Looks like a real sequel, and if it shows some of Hotel Dusk's increased quality... could be amazing.

Day One.

I loved Another Code so the sequel is definitely a huge welcome.
This and Sin and Punishment II finally brings more games on my Wii (seriously).

Great job Nintendo!

Yep. Definitely good times. I don't think Trace Memory ever really got such a thread. At least, I don't recall one quite like that.

First day purchase.

That reminds me, I re;a;y need to but the DS version again. I still can't believe I gave my old copy away.

I really enjoyed Trace Memory, and I'm really surprised to see there is a fairly large group of people that share my opinion. It was pretty poorly received by both the gaming press and enthusiast-sites like GAF.

I hope it's better than their DS games. The DS ones are...passable. But I've think they've used up their spare lives and really need to sink or swim with this one.

Hope the game is a bit longer than the DS version. I'm definitely looking forward to this.

I will definitely be picking this up. Need to replay the first one so I can have the story fresh in mind. I may do that when I get home.

The dialogue, scenarios and puzzles mainly. It was just a very enjoyable experience from beginning to end. I also enjoyed Hotel Dusk, which seems to have an even larger love-it-or-hate-it mentality here.

Dragona:

Wow~ I had no idea you liked Hotel Dusk, which a lot of GAFers slammed for having a "shoddy" narrative, and I know how important that is to you.

I loved every second of it because of so many reasons, but mostly because of atmosphere~

1979, dilapidated hotel in the middle of a desert, patrons with intriguing backgrounds, and a main character who's hit bottom.

Somehow, the story was well enough so that I became pretty absorbed in that world.

I agree. Cing creates amazing Atmosphere. This looks no different. I like how it seems to be sidescrolling in the outer world, but 3D exploration for indoors. It's quite similar to the game I've been working on in my spare time!

Isn't there something else going on tomorrow morning? Could there be a US announcement there?

I support this post. The atmosphere (the sweet music added so much) was awesome and I thought the story was as well!! I'd like a sequel that would further his adventures. A prequel would be interesting too.

Cing mentioned in an interview that we haven't seen the last of Kyle Hyde.

Besides, if Cing are so inclined to develop a sequel to Trace Memory/Another Code despite the cool reaction it received, then no doubt we will see Hotel Dusk make a return.

Hotel Dusk: 1999 ?? ^o^
