I'm about to make an incision...on my arm if I don't get to play Trauma Team soon.
Atlus is still working on it, but they sent along new screenshots of the upcoming Wii medical operation game as a sort of Christmas gift, they say. Christmas gift? How 'bout releasing that other half of Persona 2. Sorry, didn't mean to sound ungrateful.
The new screens have bones, blobs, cuts and guts from each of the game's six operation types: surgery, diagnostics, forensics, first response, orthopedics and endoscopy, the last of which we wrote up a preview of. No out of OR shots yet, though.
Atlus is stitching this one up for a Spring 2010 release.

Starting the operation!
It's a retail game.
It's a tube down a dude's neck.
We've already got a pretty good fan translation patch out there now. A true Atlus USA localization would be better, but it's really not something that needs to be on the top of their list of priorities. (Especially since it would never happen anyway.)
"Shame. I really wish Atlus would get this game back onto DS."
The most recent iteration of the franchise (Trauma Center 2) was on the DS. While I also personally prefer the series on the DS, I'm not surprised this particular game is on the Wii.
