In the latest issue of Weekly Famitsu, Marvelous Interactive announced that Arc Rise Fantasia is Wii-bound. The title is in the capable hands of developer Image Epoch, the guys responsible for the Nintendo DS strategy RPG Luminous Arc. Before American Wii owners' mouths start foaming, it is important to note that a translation has yet to be announced.
Arc Rise Fantasia is set to be a traditional RPG, with a turn-based battle system and heavy strategic elements. The game revolves around the concept of big, scary dragons, and an empire’s inability to kill them easily. Apparently, when dragons are killed in Arc Rise Fantasia’s fantasy world, they release a poisonous gas. At one point these reptilian Zeppelins were willing to steer clear of the major cities of the empire, but now as they move in a gigantic horde towards the capital, someone has to stop them. Enter the dashing protagonists.
No release date has been announced as of yet, but isn’t it exciting to finally hear about a legitimate RPG experience for the Wii?

I'm all for more RPGs on my Wii.
BREAK OUT THE WHIPS AND MIDGETS
I THINK SOMEBODY SAID WEEABOO!
Also, game sounds midly interesting
Other Brad: Hey guys, what about me?
Dtoid: We don't need you anymore, we have New Brad.
Brad: Back to lolicon for me, I guess.
IN REMEMBRANCE:
Yes, as a contributor, not as an editor. Maybe BSD's just never got an opinion on the news stories he submits.
Ok that was a bad idea.
I am going to miss the old Brad, though. May he rest in peace. :(
*grumbles something and lurks back over to Tomopop* :p
Yeah, he's a new editor. The old Brad died in a horrible ... oh, you don't want to know. It's just too ... horrible.
I don't think two Brads will be a problem. I think we've got a bigger issue with the number of editors whose names start with "J". I mean, four? That's not acceptable. I expect an American Gladiatorial deathmatch, ASAP.
@lark We're not together anymore, FYI.
Also, who the hell is Brad Nicholson?
There was a good, happy Brad? I've only ever seen the Brad who is bitter about everything at a relatively young age.
Vanish/Doom is where he came from. Good editorials, to boot, not to mention a passion for the writing.
dammit japan, when will you learn!!??
