Those of you who have been keeping up with the obscure RPG scene since at least the PSX days (and really, back then, RPGs were all pretty obscure) might remember a little Atlus-published gem known as Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure. One of Nippon Ichi's first games, Rhapsody (known in Japan as literally "The Little Puppet Princess of Marl Kingdom" - the first Marl Kingdom game), Rhapsody was a relatively unknown game, even by that generation's standards.
But now, thanks to Disgaea's success, Nippon Ichi is more of a household name, and they are all about capitalizing on ports of their old games. (Pulling a bit of a Square Enix, are we?) In any case, Rhapsody is officially heading for the DS (at least in Japan) on August 7th, according to the game's site (which you can check out here).
The game has received an art revision (which I personally feel looks inferior to the original), and has received a new subtitle: マール王国の人形姫 天使が奏でる愛のうた (Maaru Oukoku no Ningyou Hime: Tenshi ga Kanaderu Ai no Uta - literally "The Puppet Princess of Marl Kingdom: The Song of Love that Angels Play").
Currently there has been no word from NISAmerica (or any other company for that matter) about North American release.
