New Wii game by Odin Sphere team

Teh Bungies are at it again people.






I for one feel an extreme sense of hope, glee, and self satisfaction at these scans. I predicted that the Wii could become a the new 2D gamers ultimate super system when both the VC and Super Paper Mario did so well on the console, and it looks like that prediction may come true. Now the Wii has this game, The Monkey King, New Pocky and Rocky, Blast Works, the new Geo Wars, the new Guilty Gear (also coming to PS2), the new Impossible Mission, not to mention the awesome 2D games already released for the system. And there are probably more games I either don't know of or are forgetting about.

All the Wii needs is a Castle Crashers port and a new 2D Capcom game and that's it. Never mind the bollocks. The Wii will be the most hardcore gaming system EVAR.

Nevermind the moonspeak, I can barely make out what's going on in those screenshots.

Looks pretty cool. I wasn't as sold on Odin Sphere as everyone else seemed to be, but I liked it enough to buy it. This is pretty much getting the same reaction.

I'd love to see a new Marvel Vs. Capcom game on Wii, but I think we all know that ain't gonna happen. Possibly Capcom Vs. SNK 3? Either way, I needs me my 2D.

Wait, New Pocky and Rocky? Here's hoping it's better than the disaster that was Pocky and Rocky with Becky.

Don't panic, there is a single English phrase in there. "RPG"

Poops, that looks amazing! Huzzah for 2D gaming!

Hopefully the gameplay can differentiate itself enough from Odin Sphere so it won't just feel like a retread, I definitely played that game to death.

I can say without a doubt that I am heavily interested in this title.

Will the Wii replace the PS2 as the Japanophile's system of choice? Only time will tell folks, but here's hoping. Because let me tell you, my Xbox 360 just ain't cuttin' it...

That had better come out in America, that looks really good. The action RPG genre has really recieved a kick in the pants this year.

Jack and pot. I wanted to play Odin Sphere so bad. Am I dumb and missed the game name?

Odin sphere was a flawed gem, looks great and packed with gameplay innovation, but some rookie mistakes like cheap enemies and some brawler monotony kept it from true Viewtiful status.

If those errors are fixed for this game, it could become a new classic on AMC.
