Title: Atlus USA announces two cool lookin' games for ds and psp!
Post by: Himu on December 18, 2008, 05:16:06 PM
Go Atlus USA!

The Dark Spire

Quote
Calling all fans of classic, first-person role playing games! The Dark Spire™ for Nintendo DS™ is an RPG of exploration and character development in the purest sense. Parties will be assembled, stats will be rolled, items, weapons and armor shall be equipped, and monsters will be slain (and let's face it, some player characters, too).

Some adventurers will choose to play using the "modern" interface, its bold, stylized textures and palettes delivering a fresh, up-to-date adventure. Others may opt for the "classic" mode, guaranteed to evoke overwhelming sensations of nostalgia as it perfectly recreates the style and simplicity of the fathers of the genre. Two different presentation modes, two different ways to experience The Dark Spire!

The powerful Archmage Tyrhung resides in a tower of mist and shadow. He holds in his possession a jewel of great worth and power. A group of adventurers assemble. Will they be able to conquer Tyrhung and his nefarious tower? The party sets out, its fate yet to be determined...

"We are the Knights who say... NI!"
Continuing the tradition of Etrian Odyssey, Atlus's The Dark Spire is the next great homage to the RPG classics of old. Look for it to hit Nintendo DS™ on March 10, 2009 with an MSRP of $29.99.

Will you face the peril, or will it be too perilous?

Yes, but also like Distant said, platformer fans are so rabid for new games we'd buy it.

You should all buy Hammerin' Hero to support the genre. It's not perfect, but it's a platformer dammit!

Too bad Sony won't release their Bleach games in North America. Soul Carnival is a kick ass platformer, and I don't like the anime.

Shit, if Ikkitousen Eloquent Fist was released in North America, I'd make you all buy it.

You can get the Asian verison for $43, it's really fun, and I'm sure it's better if you actually like license.

The Fry's in Renton (Seattle) stopped carrying import DS and PSP titles, do they have them in Houston still?

Dark Spire looks nice but I wish Atlus would go all the way and announce a SMT for the DS.

When did they do this? I liked going to that Fry's just for that import DS section in the back. It wasn't a big profit item I bet.

The last time I was in that Fry's the game section was getting smaller. I used to be able to find old PS2 and xbox games there. Which reminds me I need to find Fable 1 Lost Chapters.
