Fab art direction with that title, it certainly does set itself aparat from the rest of the DS catalogue.

I'll have to keep a look out for this one.

Any newS on this title, I'm pretty soon gonna go into DS Adventure hyperdrive with Touch Detective, Another Code, Hotel Dusk and Lost in Blue.

Is this title still coming out it's all gone a lil' quiet plus now Level 5 are doing DQ on the DS. Am I correct in thinking there's pretty much zero chance of this reaching western localisation departments?

Unless the dialogue is spoken (I dunno how big a DS cart is) I'll be missing out on what seems like a gem. I can handle basic convo in Japanese thanks to the 101 podcast but reading adventures I really could not cope with.

It's still slated for a February release next year:

Doubtful it will get a Western release though.
