There are a couple Japanese sites reporting that Valkyrie Profile DS has been announced. Can anyone in Japan confirm if it's true? I hear it was announced in Jump magazine.

http://taletalesource.blog69.fc2.com/blog-entry-893.html

That page has most of the details, if anyone is interested. There was another site, but it had what was supposed to be a picture of the article. I don't know if it's real or not, but I don't want to risk it.

 

[MrDaravon]

Weird if true. Unless it's a new game, that'd be cool.

 

[ethelred]

what the fuck

Edit: WHAT THE FUCK

 

[XHitoshuraX]

Many will pay if true.

Where's Error, he's avatar was Freya for like 4 months lol

Edit: Beaten.

 

[Alex]

That's even more pointless than the Disgaea port.

 

[Error]

if it's 2d and not a port of the original, my balls will explode

 

[Wollan]

Thought this was about Valkyria Chronicles. /sad

 

[batbeg]

what?! WHAT?! WANT! WANT!

 

[ethelred]

Right there with you.

Thought this was about Valkyria Chronicles. /sad

Are you dissing Valkyrie Profile?

 

[Shouta]

According to that page, it's supposedly a new game involving someone named Wilfred and Lenneth? They say it uses a isometric view or whatever similar to Disgaea I guess? Just skimming it quick.

 

[Lightning]

If it's the original, MEH!. New game PLEASE! I own all the old ones already...

This will be cool, I'm all for this.

If the screen and information are both real, it's an original game. It uses 2-d sprites, with an isometric view. No sidescrolling in the screen that's online.

Ahahaha, I think you're gonna have numb nuts when you see the pic :/

 

[Kafel]

Spoiler

Woo, that would be great then, as long as it's not some fucking farm out or something.

 

[Uno Ill Nino]

I got the PSP version some time back. Not my kind of thing at all. I don't understand why they don't just make an anime movie if they're going to make you sit through 45 minutes of straight cutscenes and "press X".

Hard to imagine the DS version topping it though since it had the CG cutscenes and all the original PS1 stuff as well.

Want want want want want.

I can't remember who Wilfred was in the first (if he was in it?), someone clue me in?

 

[Abel]

Yeah, like B.K. said, with the one picture available (assuming it's legit), it's definitely a new game and not a port

 

[SabinFigaro]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

>:O

 

[kuYuri]

New game = FUCK YES ALL OVER MY TITS.

 

[zoku88]

Want want want want want.

I don't remember him either, maybe he's a new character.

Who cares about games on systems that don't matter.

Edit:
The replies come quick. Hope this new game is good.

SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

What? Shut the fuck up, you damned heathen.

Famitsu trailer for next week ?

IF it's real, I would bet on it being the trailer for the unannounced game on the Star Ocean: Second Evolution bonus DVD.

2d!? 2d!?!?!?!?!

*faints*

...wut. The game has a very long opening, but the Valkyrie Profile games have some of the greatest dungeons and battle systems out there, they are not just cutscenes.

God I'm freakin psyched. Although I would of course much prefer a PS3 game, as this is an isometric game it's presumably a spinoff so I'll live. I need to find this damn picture <3

IF it's real, I would bet on it being the trailer for the unannounced game on the Star Ocean: Second Evolution bonus DVD.

Touche.

 

[Kafel]

There's a pic somewhere ?

Someone can confirm this game exists ?

 

[LiquidMetal14]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

>:O

:lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol

And please be true. We need some sort of VP fix.

 

[ethelred]

It looks awesome.

 

[Dragona Akehi]

Hmm.... this doesn't look like VP. Looks more like VP Tactics.

 

[Alex]

Hmm.... this doesn't look like VP. Looks more like VP Tactics.

Interest plummeting

 

[davepoobond]

whawthwhrtwehrwehhwwWHATTT

 

[Stormbringer]

Isometric, chibi Valkyrie Profile ?...Mmmh...

 

[Pureauthor]

Hmm.... this doesn't look like VP. Looks more like VP Tactics.

VP2 already played somewhat like an sRPG. And frankly, with all the Einherjar flying around, it seems a no-brainer to me.

New Valkyrie Profile YESYESYESYESYES

 

[bryehn]

Ahahaha, I think you're gonna have numb nuts when you see the pic :/

 

[B.K.]

There IS a pic. I have a link to it and have it saved, but on the chance that it is real, I'm not posting it, since Japanese scans are banned.

 

[Kafel]

so now, Please Melt down.

 

[Shouta]

Looks like crap and definitely not the same style of game that VP1 and VP2 is.

 

[MrDaravon]

So wait, it's confirmed now? (title change)

Oh, tactics game? Ehhhhh. I like tactics games, but I don't think that's what anyone was really wanting from a new VP game.

 

[Roland]

I'm not sure about the isometric perspective, but I guess tri-Ace realized that the dual screen layout means sidescrollers aren't very efficient. I honestly wish they would've made a new sidescroller for PSP, especially with the original VP and the two Star Oceans pushing the system along.

 

[XHitoshuraX]

2d!? 2d!?!?!?!?!

*faints*

Freya's back!!!

 

[zoku88]

I didn't really like VP2 taht much (liked VP much better.) Hopefully this one is more fun to play.

Pointless then.
