Level-5 filed a trademark for Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch in here in the US, which sounds a lot like the Japanese name for the beautiful PS3 game. We've heard that there's a matching European trademark, too. That's far from confirmation of a US release, but I feel good about it. It's too good of a thing to pass on in any territory.
Speaking of passing on games, Siliconera says that the trademark applies to the PS3 game, and not the DS title we've all been wanting. Balls.

Just pointing it out. :)
Look another silly shoot 'em up fanboy. Do we need you here? Ha, I'm just kidding, little fella. Of course, we need you here. We need retards like you to make the rest of us feel intelligent. So stick around, jimmy ol' pal! We've got guns AND kittens!
Do they go to the same (grade) school? Are they both disgruntled game developers taking their rage out on video game fans through relentless trolling? Or are they members of some international terrorist operation and this is some form of cyber terrorism?
I feel like there is an interesting, and potentially tragic, story behind these individuals...
Sign me up for the US PS3 Version.
Sucks that this is the case, but unfortunately its the way it is. PS3 version sounds awesome though!
