Waiting For Okamiden

Filed under: News Feed — Tags: , , , — Jamie Love @ 8:59 am

Okamiden
Sometimes I think about the long wait for Okamiden in North America, and I fret about all the accidents that could befall me during such a long expanse of time – it’s a dangerous world out there after all.

But in an attempt to ease my mind, I noticed that Okamiden screenshots practically beg to be comic panels with custom dialogue. I won’t suggest my first attempt is very creative, but you should totally give it a try, if only to eat up some of the wait.

In fact, I insist you give it a try, and send me the results!

Every Dog Has Its Day

Solatorobo
Solarobo picked up a name adjustment along with a Japanese DS release date of October 28, 2010, under the name Solatorobo. CyberConnect2’s answer to my forgotten love of Tail Concerto also has a hefty collector’s edition box that brings together the always appreciated artbook and soundtrack cd.

Add to to this a bonus disc with either edition of the game and it seems a safe bet that the only way we’ll ever see these goodies in North America is if XSEED picks the title up.

Check out the game’s site for more details / images / dogs and cats living together… mass hysteria.

Your Pokémon Enigma (Stone)

Pokemon
The quest to keep my well worn Pokéwalker in my pocket continues, with news that HeartGold and SoulSilver Pokéfantatics can get their mitts on the Enigma Stone via wifi, and thus a chance to catch elusive Legendary Pokémon, Latias (SoulSilver) or Latios (HeartGold).

According to the fine print, the catch is that only players who have beaten the Elite Four, claimed the National Pokédex, and have two or fewer Wonder Cards can solve the riddle of the Enigma Stone in order to capture Latios or Latias.

So many Pokérules…

I haven’t seen an official news blurb on the Pokémon site yet, but word from the press release I’m looking at is that this opportunity starts on Saturday July 31st and continues through to Friday August 27th.

Update – The HeartGold & SoulSilver site now has the step by step details.

Possibly Kicking A Dead Horse

Love Plus+
The girls of Love Plus + in 1/8th toy form, via Konami Style – now you can bring something a little more physical home to meet your parents.

That’s pretty much all I’ve got beyond mentioning that the girls appear to come with several different hairstyles to suit most any occasion.

Your Okamiden Import Temptation

Filed under: News Feed — Tags: , , , — Jamie Love @ 9:03 am

Okamiden
Apparently Capcom wants to ensure no one ever releases a more legendary collector’s edition for a videogame, ever. My evidence for this comes via the Japanese CE for Okamiden, which offers a giant box to help store the swag accompanying the game – bonus soundtrack, DVD, illustrated book, tiny plushie, and perhaps the cutest earphones ever created.

It’s official – Capcom is absolutely vomiting rainbows full of Okamiden swag.

Check it out over at E-Capcom.

Forests Of Eternity – The Art of Etrian Odyssey

Forests of Eternity
Following the tradition of Atlus spoiling their fans comes Forests of Eternity – your 60 page full-color artwork pre-order bonus for the upcoming DS RPG Etrian Odyssey III: The Drowned City. Atlus mentions that the book offers up character designs and concept art from the entire Etrian Odyssey series.

While I haven’t been keeping up with Etrian Odyssey much over the last month, I’m glad to see another artbook on the way, especially from the publisher responsible for my much cherished Knights in the Nightmare Tome of Lost Souls.

Etrian Odyssey III is set for release on September 21, 2010 btw.

Check out the full image here, or catch a virtual sample of the book over here.

Okamiden’s Japanese Date

Okamiden
Capcom’s updated the Japanese Okamiden site, which you can visit here, adding new details about bonus items, new wallpaper, and most importantly a release date of September 30, 2010 for the spiritual continuation of the series.

It’s definitely worth a visit – you can update your Okamiden art collection and watch some trailers before returning to wondering what portion of 2011 Capcom intends to leave the rest of us waiting for.
