This sounds like the most beautiful game ever.
Two questions I hope someone can answer:
How involved are Ghibli?
What Type of game is it?
Two questions I hope someone can answer:

What Type of game is it?
From what i've gathered online:
1. The game was always promoted at the end of the japanese trailers as "for DS and another platform", we all just assumed the other platform was the Wii. Guess not!
2. The game has two different story versions, the DS and the PS3 one.
3. It's not a "port" of the DS game, it's being developed for the PS3 as well from the ground up.
Here is a scan of the PS3 version, came out in Famitsu today:

Here is a scan of the PS3 version, came out in Famitsu today. We all can agree that it looks, well... different from the DS images. Also, some of those pictures are gameplay, stated by Famitsu:

@thanks for the info! I haven't seen much Gibli films, but this game looks really cool. Im trying to save up for a PS3 right now, so maybe i can get BOTH GAMES :D
Looks interesting, have to see what the PS3 version looks like though. Developers are really loving that Move, huh. Can't wait to see what else is in line for it.
@Metashotzo
You must watch more Ghibli! Their films make you smarter and smell better! & they are omgsuchcoolcartoons!

Holy shit. I mean, the DS would be awesome, but this game in HD would just own. I'm sold on the PS3 one.
Now I add another title to the growing list of games I must buy when I do get a PS3. Damn, I have to buy a Move, too?
Thanks for mentioning the "not a port" aspect. :) A VERY big point.
I was so effing excited for the DS version that never in my wildest dreams would I have thought it would also be on PS3. This blew my mind and made my day. They have 2 definite sales from me already!!

Will definitely buy the PS3 version, but will likely get both.
Too bad it's probably too late to go 3DS on this.

As I'm sure others have mentioned, Ben, this is not a port but a standalone experience very different from it's DS counterpart. Anyone who can read Japanese can see that from the Famitsu scans (which you didn't post??).
As for the relevant conjecture, I think Move support is the title's dirty little secret and will surely sell me on it if it is in fact announced.

I've always wanted them to get into video games. Now I'm going to be spending almost $100 on that experience. Sweet :D
Though I obviously want to hear more about the gameplay itself, I'm extremely interested. Also, very intrigued by the whole "solving puzzles with the hardcover book that comes with the game" thing that IGN reported.
Oh yes! The game is actually kind of a Dragon Quest clone (so you can make an idea on the gameplay). It's a full-fledged RPG indeed :-D I seriously can't wait for more info on this game.
Also Joe Hisaishi is doing the soundtrack. Add that to Studio Ghibli and Level 5 and you have got a must-buy game!
anything lv5 is a must buy for me! just one trophy away from platinum in wkc and i can put that one to rest until the sequel.
Studio Ghibli is my all time favorite film studio. Did anyone see Ponyo? Shit was MASTERFUL.
Looks like I'm buying a Move.

Wow, this is quite awesome. Not only do we get one Studio Ghibli game, we get TWO. That is, assuming that the reports about the games being different are true. Would make sense though. If the DS and PS3 version had the exact same story/gameplay, either the DS version would pale in comparison or the PS3 version would feel rather limited.
Did gibli do that film where racoons? Bounced around on inflated nut sacks? Because that film was the bollocks. Literally.
@ Sexualchocolate
Pom-poko is the name your looking for...And yeah it was a pretty strange but great film.

Thanks Zepwich, Pom-poko was exactly the one!
think I saw a sequel recently too? Either that or i forgot enough of the original to think it was a sequel on watching it again.
Either way, that film fucking rocks!

I can't wait for this.
Slightly unrelated, but how awesome would a proper Nausicaa videogame be?
I guess I just want an excuse to fly around on that Mehve thing.

This article will probably get buried soon, but here's a link to a trailer.

@Tuxy79: @lewness: It goes back to the first Xbox, when Level 5 was developing an MMORPG for Microsoft called True Fantasy Live Online to promote Xbox Live in Japan. I don't remember all the details but they had problems implementing voice chat in the game (something MMORPG games from that time didn't have) and Microsoft kept insisting on it since it was a major feature of Xbox Live. The game got delayed many times and eventually Microsoft cancelled it just as it was about to released, even though Level 5 have been showing it around in playable form during gaming shows and whatnot. Understandably Level 5 was really bummed out about it all and there were some rumors that the two companies didn't part well.
