While this announcement has come a little sooner than I thought it would, it should surprise few to learn that NIS America has announced the Wii port of it's PS2 SRPG Phantom Brave for the North American market.
Titled Phantom Brave Wii in Japan, NISA apparently has a little bit more creative staff, switching out the "Wii" for "We Meet Again." ...Hey, at least it's not "Wii Meet Again." That would just be retarded.
Phantom Brave: We Meet Again is the same game that was originally released on PlayStation 2 back in 2004, but contains a few new characters and scenarios.
Phantom Brave: We Meet Again will be available in North America on Nintendo Wii sometime this June. It will be available as Phantom Brave Wii in Japan on March 12, 2009.
Nippon Ichi has just released a new trailer for their upcoming port of Phantom Brave to the Nintendo Wii, conveniently named Phantom Brave Wii (I imagine their creative department labored diligently to come up with that name).
You can watch it below.
Hmm, it looks a lot like Phantom Brave... But if the new character(s) and new scenario(s) are your thing, or if you missed it on PS2 and wish you hadn't, I guess this might be just what the doctor ordered.
Though the "exclusively on Wii" bit at the end it kind of an eyebrow-raiser. Like, uh, should I be the one to tell them that it's already on another console?
Phantom Brave Wii will be available for Nintendo Wii on March 12, 2009 in Japan.
Nippon Ichi Software, having recently acquired a license to develop and publish games on the Nintendo Wii, has just announced their first release on Nintendo's home of waggle: a port of Phantom Brave.
The cleverly titled Phantom Brave Wii will be available in Japan next spring with extra content compared to its PS2 forebearer.
Though details are scarce at the moment on what enhancements will be made to the game, or if the game will support awesomely futuristic motion controls, you can be sure that Nippon Ichi will be dedicated to keeping their graphics looking exactly the same as they always have. It's just how they roll.
You can check out N1's official site for the game here, which will officially open on December 19.
Phantom Brave Wii will be available on Nintendo Wii in March, 2009.
