Preorder Little King's Story and nab an Onii figure photo

As you may recall, we let you know that the adorable-looking XSEED title Little King's Story had been delayed back in January, and it looks like it's finally ready to come out now, with a release date of June 23rd. For all you preorder bonus whores out there, XSEED has thrown in a little extra surprise along with the release: an Onii stress figure (like the kind you squeeze when you want to wring your boss' neck, but you wring the toy instead). The Onii are the little beasties that you see in your kingdom when playing the game.

Gamestop, EB Games, Amazon and Gamecrazy are all offering this preorder bonus, so order through one of them if you need a little Onii for your stressful moments. There's also a few new screens in the gallery, which you may want to check out. The game looks very sweet, but I'm not sure if I would play it a lot or not, so I may wait on it a while. How about you?

BUY THIS GAME! It's out in Europe already and it's hands down one of those rare gems on Wii that is truely worth every cent. It's an incredibly long adventure (don't be surprized when you log 40 hours into this game after only owning it for a week) and it's a blast the whole time. It's currently the 9th highest rated Wii game on metacritic and I expect to see it go up with the NA release. The game is releasing the same day as the Conduit and I expect this to be the superior one, if not then The Conduit will truly surprize me. PREORDER NOW!

Poor Oni, the game had potential, but the level design was so damn boring and confusing. Real life architecture ISN'T always fun.

I have been pumped for this game since it was announced just ask anyone on n4g... of course no one over there cared becasue they were too busy comparing GeOW to Haze or MGS4 to Too Human or something sensible. But I'm glad that people over here are as excited as I am for this Gem

Yes you CAN tell when a game will be good well before hand...

you can bet your ASS that I am pre-ording it and so help the Gamespot employeee who says they don't have any left!

The people at GameCrazy probably still talk about me harrasing them untill I got my LBP pre-order sack (about 2 months later they had a different store send them one :P)

I've heard good things about this. It definitely needs to be getting more exposure than it has been.

Taking Pikmin and My Life as a King and smushing them together has made this a top contender on my list for summer entertainment. It's funny that Europe and Australia just got this gem last week while the North Americans have to wait till mid-June. :)

People are saying this is GOTY material, possibly one of the best games for the Wii, and is pretty much blowing the minds of people all over the place.

DO WANT.
