This reminds me a LOT of D&D: Shadows Over Mystara and that is awesome

Totally!
A series that, of course, George Kamitani worked on back before he started Vanillaware.
 
Sheeeeeiiiit. HD Vanillaware.

Game over.

Vita just won my heart. $249 just makes it freaking mind blowing.

I got Wizard.
 
If Kamitani worked on Shadow Over Mystara that explains why all of the bad guys(gals) wore hardly any clothes.

Any chance he had a hand in Battle Circuit? About all I remember from that game is Pink Ostrich and Akira-bike driving women who forgot their shirt and pants but remembered their jacket and katana.

That explains it haha. Oh god me and my friend are so excited for this. Buying the hell out of it.

To be fair, D&D art design during the 80s and early 90s never really had its heart in sensibly-attired women.

Somehow I'd never heard of Battle Circuit! Thanks for the tip.

Good question! He doesn't seem to be credited for Battle Circuit, but he apparently left midway through Shadow Over Mystara (after being one of the leads on Tower of Doom), which came out the year before Battle Circuit, so I guess it's possible that he was involved in its early development?

Although he strikes me as one of those guys who is just getting pervier as he grows older, like Satoshi Urushihara. Dirty old bastard just can't keep it in check anymore.

With all due respect, of course.
 
I'm all for Vanillaware, but Ignition leaves a lot to be desired for a quality English localization. I'd normally be cautiously optimistic, but their previous track record is horrific. Still, looks like a day one (+shipping) import for me. =D

4 player online co-op?

Ugh.

Even the Japanese are starting to ruin single player games now.

Hopefully it's playable single-player as well. There is no way in hell I'll be able to get 3 other friends to buy this game, so I'm hoping it's a decent experience solo.

I love you, Vanillaware, but that artwork scares me. Never expected Chun-Li to be outclassed in the thigh department. And she shouldn't.
