Awesome dates for the Nintendo games listed. All really soon. Ouendan can't come soon enough either.

And what is Urban Chaos? Something to look for from Spike?

I just did something very strange.... I pre-ordered Ouendan 2........ This is the first time I've fully paid for a game before release in my life. lol

PA coupon force it on me. ; ;

Ouendan 2

Next month

Are you shitting me? Because I didn't expect it this early. I almost can't believe it.

Goddamn I better pre-order.
I didn't expect to import so soon after getting the DJMP2 LE. Rhythm games FTW!

Cool at Rune Factory 2. I've heard lots of nice things about the first one, and I'm looking forward to picking it up. Hopefully Neverland's developing again.

The Zelda release this soon is a bit surprising... cool, in one sense, but disappointing in another. I guess that means Archaic Sealed Heat's not going to make Q2 after all. I can't see them publishing two big game-games that soon together.

Well that sucks. Another Luminous Arc situation where I was liking the design from the looks of things, but I guess it didn't translate to a great DS game.

It's not really surprising -- Atelier Lise looked pretty shitty.
 
I would like to see more Zelda. The WW style looks ****ing gorgious on the DS. I hope they can capture the grand scale of Wind Waker as well.

A Nintendo-published Mistwalker game designed by Hironobu Sakaguchi? Pretty big, yeah.

We're talking sales, right?

ASH hasn't received any media coverage beyond a couple of screens. I'd be surprised if most folks hadn't forgotten about it by now. The people clamouring for it tends to be the same bunch.

There is some PS3 news too...
Apparently Home will have character designs and items tailored for the Japanese audience. That's all I can find on that subject for now though.

Yeah, assuming there's some serious effort put into the game, it should be quite a nice little seller. Probably not platinum, but then... neither is Zelda.

ASH hasn't received much media coverage to date because it's not at that point yet. Once the release date is announced you can expect massive promotion of the game from that point on.

If all DLC came tied to $13 figurines, I'd consider all DLC to be free

This is big news if true. Sony has basically ignored their JP fans and their lack of success has been the response but this could be a step towards some momentum.
 
Wow, Ar Tonelico 2? Cool. Haven't played the first, yet, but I heard it was pretty good and did pretty well here.

Any news on this?

And why are you all nuts about this Quendan 2?! Did I miss something?! Please, do tell!

This means Nintendo has the choice of Super Mario Strikers, Donkey Kong Jet Racing and Fire Emblem to fill the summer drought from June to September......nice :)

Plus this means we might get an August date for Zelda....if we're lucky

WTF !! Zelda's release date must be in the thread title instead of Ouendan !! what's wrong with u GAF ??

The fact that Zelda DS is coming out soon is gravy.

But this is friggin' OUENDAN 2 we're talking about here. Until recently, we had no real idea if a sequel to the original was on its way or not. It sold some what decently, but certainly wasn't a plat-seller either. No one could really say without a shadow of a doubt that Ouendan 2 was going to come out, so seeing the series thrive enough to get a sequel would be more than enough to outweigh the Zelda news, in my opinion.
