We've been going on and on about Oboro Muramasa Youtouden for about a year now. Vanillaware's Wii action title has had us hoping for a US release ever since we first laid eyes on it, and now it looks like our 2D dreams have come true.
Xseed and Marvelous are tag teaming on Oboro Muramasa Youtouden to bring it to North America. Their first order of business was a renaming, so now it's called Muramasa: The Demon Blade. Siliconera says that the team is also hard at work bringing over other titles like, Lux Pain and Flower, Sun, and Rain.
As beautiful as Muramasa is, we still don't know much about the game play. That will change next month when we finally get our hands on the title at TGS 2008. Look forward to our report.

The same art work that was used in Odin's Sphere, this game looks promising.
I think come early 2009 this is all we'll hear people saying on messageboards. "Shit I shouldn't of sold my Wii" Oh well serves them right LOL!
Horay for my poor spelling
