That's... disappointing.
Also, I agree. The art style in this looks way, way, way too generic.
Yeah looks like it. Same bosses and city layout. Reskined and added a couple of new characters.
Still need to finish the Wii game.

Yes! New Little King's Story announced for Vita
[Update: We've added a new announcement trailer.] More Vita RPGs! Konami has announced that New Little King's Story will be released for the PlayStation Vita this summer as a digital download. There's a new storyline where players will follow King Corobo, who has to reclaim his kingdom from The Nightmare, the Devil King. There's seven kingdoms to visit on a trek to save the princess. This title will take advantage of the Vita's features, meaning that the visuals are upgraded and touch controls are in place (including the rear touchpad). Imagine gathering your army by drawing a circle with your finger on the touchscreen. Nw online features have been added for NLKS. Expect DLC, item combining, leaderboards and cooperative play. I hope this is at E3 so I can get my hands on it! Did you know? You can now get daily or weekly email notifications when humans reply to your comments.
Legacy Comments (will be imported soon)From what I see from the trailer, it's not a sequel but instead a remake of the original with generic character design?
That's... disappointing. I really should play my Wii copy...that sits on the shelf...still in the shrink-wrap. Hrmm.
Also, I agree. The art style in this looks way, way, way too generic. I bought the majority of wii exclusives but I never got around of buying little king's story. I might check this out because I'm dying for more games to play on my vita. @Ogada
Yeah looks like it. Same bosses and city layout. Reskined and added a couple of new characters. But I am glad the turn around for Japanese games being localized is not ridiculously long on VITA. I remember this game being released sometime in March for Japan so, this summer is really decent for a localization effort time. Cool that a new one is happening but it seems so Nintendo to me that it seems crazy to be Vita only.
Still need to finish the Wii game. Apparently EggmaniMN not only knows more about the game than we do, hes played it, and can tell us that it is objectively shit. Though he is a Sonic fan in 2012, so his opinion may not be all too trustworthy. 2:00 PM on 05.25.2013 New Awesomenaut Ayla voiced by Ashly BurchThe insane 2D MOBA Awesomenauts has been trucking along for a full year, continuously being updated with new characters, maps, and other goodies -- on Windows and Mac, of course.

| 5:00 PM on 10.17.2012 Review: New Little King's Story |

As the iconic Mel Brooks once said: "It's good to be the king!" Well, sorta. You might get all the power, all the gold, and all the women, but you have to deal with, you know, problems and stuff too. If I had a motto for New Little King's Story, it would be, "It's mostly good to be the king...mostly."more
