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

Nintendo ideally could localize Inazuma Eleven, but I imagine it's a gargantuan task for something that has a pretty decent potential of bombing in America.

Inazuma Eleven could be really big in Europe if they did the TV show too like Captain Tsubasa ,

by the way where is my Captain Tsubasa DS Konami ?

Ooooh, Captain Tsubasa. Nostalgia.

They're effing stupid if they don't release Inazuma Eleven in Europe. We're freaking nutcases when it comes to soccer.

wat? if crazy Layton can get a release here why not Izuma? plus Level-5 are pretty generous when it comes to localizing their games (all of them are)

This one is self-published like Layton though. Nintendo picked up Layton for the overseas release. I don't see L5 publishing any game in the west in the forseeable future.

Yeah, I think so too. But if they want to launch alongside a yet to be released in Japan Anime I fear we would've to wait a long time.

Maybe it could even work without the Anime, just push some ads in the kid's programs running Anime series and you're bound to get some decent sales.

Inazuma Eleven could be a total success in Europe, without Anime, just a nice ad's with a Captain Tusbasa feeling and just wait to the bags fulls of money...

Hell, could it sell tons of games just in Spain, just with the Captain Tsubasa nostalgia....

Konami ? since when Konami own Tsubasa's IP ? it's Shueisha call since they are the publisher for Captain Tsubasa and own it's rights , last one for PS2 was from Bandai Namco so I guess if there is new one it will be Bandai Namco unless it was a deal for just for one game .

They never confirmed what console they're making it for, but Wii is the safest bet.

There was a case last gen, a company made a game for GBA and one for PS2 and you could use codes from one game to unlock stuff in the other. Might have been Square Enix, but I can't remember what games were involved.

Inazuma Eleven sounds so awesome! I really hope they bring it to North America but I'm going to guess the chances of that are next to nothing.

I think you mean Dobutsu No Mori for GC... You could unlock stuff on an Island if you had a GBA...

Similar stuff was on Splintercell 1 for GC and GBA

Haha, Ven getting smaller and having to face Lucifer. From what I heard the Fairy Godmother does it to him I wonder how that will help. :lol

And yay for finally seeing Aqua in-game! I want to see her in action.

Maleficent <3. I love the fact that she's always trying to acquire castles wherever she goes.

Edit: From one screen in the Lucifer fight it looks like the QTEs won't be restricted to the triangle button like in KH2. Don't know if I want, I hope they don't abuse of QTE randomness like in GoW2 and GoW Chains.

SE seems to be outdoing themselves with these handheld titles.

Both KH games look awesome (especially Birth by Sleep) and Dissidia just keeps on getting better and better.

Dissidia might be the first PSP game I import.

Definitely doesn't make things up as he goes along.
Why does the in-game characters on 358/2 look so good?
I don't mean the cut scenes obviously, but the in game shots looks leaps over FF4...

Or they could have changed the reaction command button. Triangle is used for skills and command options in BbS, so it's possible they just moved the reaction command button.

Takamaru alone makes me incredibly excited for this game*.

*Which will never be localized because NoA hates localizing awesome Japanese games**.

**See "MOTHER 3."

Great, I'd rather have that. I liked how it was implemented in KH2 with specific moves mapped to triangle depending on the enemy stance instead of a mini-game of random buttons. Looks like they'll expand on that then.

Sure they are. At the end of I&II, it said To Be Continued in Episode III. The PS2 Episode I and II are the ones that aren't in the continuity anymore. Takahashi himself said I&II is canon.

I hope you're right, but I doubt it. I'm buying it regardless, though - even if I can't understand a word. It looks to wacky to pass up :lol

Stop posting lies. I already locked the thread after shaming Himuro. Don't let his shame be in vain. :(

so no talks of release dates next week? :(
someone needs to get shamed!

EDIT: btw you're right ducky (duh!) no talks of Layton 2 localization anywhere, people just translated the title (Akuma no Hako) to "devil's box" and "pandora's box" and started using it when referring to the game :(

i honestly thought it would get localized... it needs to get localized.

It was a question if the source material was real far from saying it was in fact real. Not to mention the fact I saw nothing from Himuro.

I am curious about this, too. The score that they gave seems kind of low, but I hope that the game will still be good.

I just watched some gameplay footage from IGN's DK&#931;3713 video and 358/2 looks even better than I expected in motion. Can't wait to see how the multiplayer aspect will play out.
