Japanese developer, Mistwalker has at last shown off their new project titled ‘The Last Story‘. The company have been teasing a new title for a few months and now it is clear from the games website that it is a Wii exclusive.

Ignition and Tecmo are bringing ‘Nostalgia’ to DS this September and the developers have just launched their website with all the usual music, videos, downloads and game information you’d expect.
Nostalgia is a brand new IP and is a welcome addition to the already impressive DS RPG library. The game is developed fully in 3D and sees you play as Eddie, flying to different locations such as London, New York, Cairo, Africa, and Russia in your Airship while solving puzzles and searching dungeons through a non-linear story.
Check out the video footage and press release after the break.
Namco Bandai are adding to the Wii’s growing library of RPG’s this winter with ‘Tales Of Graces’. This is a brand new and original title in Namco’s popular Tales series and will include a brand new battle system and a new storyline tied together in a seamless fantasy world.
No news yet on a western release but keep your eyes peeled to nin-ten-do to find out as soon as we do.
Good news for RPG fans as Nintendo have announced a new Golden Sun is on its way to Nintendo DS. It’s in 3D and looking gorgeous in this video.

It seems good things do come to those that wait! North America will eventually see the release of ‘Sakura Wars’ (developed by Idea Factory), however the game has had a slight name change to the less tasteful ‘Sakura Wars: So Long, My Love’!

Originally released on Playstation 2 in 2004, ‘Phantom Brave’ is being re-released on Wii with new features, more characters and story chapters than the original.
As you can see from the footage, there is plenty of crazy Japanese strategy RPG-goodness here. Deep storyline, levelling up, loads of turn-based battles and more stats than you can cope with – what more do you want?
In Phantom Brave, instead of locking characters to the usual grid-based battlefield that is common with this type of game, players can freely move their units within range of an enemy as long as they have enough ‘points’ to spend.
Interested? Good as we’ll have more on this Wii remake soon… Oh and nearly forgot to mention that it’s from the same developers as Disgaea!
Valhalla Knights: Eldar Saga is debuting on the Wii this summer and XSEED games have released a press release to tell you about it. Head inside for more. Read more…
