latest famitsu news slowly trickling into neogaf. as we wait with baited breath on lufia DS (yep), here's two interesting tidbits:

at first that seems ideal. the problem lies in the details:
-the goal of the original game was to get kids out and playing in the sunshine, even if it was a videogame (and of course, I feel this is part of why the fall/winter releases in the US were foolish)

-you could, at first impulse, invert the way the weather day affects the game, so that rainy days mean a sunny Boktai world. however, this would require a rather extensive balancing of what weather causes what virtual behavior. What happens on a day when it's actually too hot to be outside?

-another huge part of the game was that, by moving in and out of shade, you could adjust the solar sensor reading - a higher reading meant you regained energy much quicker (and some abilities are more powerful), but would also cause gun overheating, rot items faster, and cause that annoying solar wind effect (although the only time I can recall that mechanic offhand is the Ygdrasil dungeon in Boktai 3). There are also times when you need no (or a low) solar reading to make a path to a secret appear, and a few other gimmicks that don't immediately come to mind.

-I thought there were some complications involving the clock mechanics, but I forgot what they were. oh well, the above is enough to worry about handling.

I haven't seriously looked at the issue, but in my casual musing on the topic, I've yet to come to any solutions that don't involve altering the weather and/or clock systems.

Well guys, it was bound to happen eventually.

Tetris the Grand Master has gone moe

[Takashi]

I'm surprised that with a name such as Tetris the Grand Master, they only now started stuffing maids into it. Other than that, terrible people etc.
Also, i thought we got over porn Qix a couple of decades ago. Guess not.

Man, whatever Toll. I am on board with the LP1 love. That game was wonderful. I look forward to it snowing in Cleveland just so it feels right to bust it out.

for those who like to know when there's actual news and have it summarized: the Lufia game commissioned by Square Enix and developed by Neverland is a 3D action-RPG remake of Lufia II for DS, with a dramatic reimagining of the story and world.

Full details where you would expect. First trailer scheduled to hit the 25th. Japanese release in late February.

Square remaking a game? Japan remaking a game? Japanese companies commissioning others to remake games? No way!

(I will probably buy this)

When is that Mushihime...something (far more important: RC-free) game hitting shelves? I kind of forgot and want to make sure that I won't miss this.

National Console Support is listing a ship date of the 27th (next friday), so i'd say somewhere abouts mid-next week, taking into account Thanksgiving

One Million Ton Bara looks so beautiful...

Erm, not really news worthy, but the JPN PSN has videos of Ar Tonelico 3 and Last Rebellion up, both worth downloading for the music alone (violins!)

falcom has apparently announced they are working with unnamed companies to bring their "popular" PSP games to North America. I'm guessing that pretty much rules out Brandish, but hopefully we'll get Ys 7.

famed famitsu magazine!

I'm glad Atlus is bluntly stating that online services won't be provided in America, and it's nice that the DLC is already on the disc, but couldn't they have asked Chunsoft to put in the fucking extras from the PSP version?
