Cameras, action! Fatal Frame IV dated for Japan

Grim. Dingy. Grimy. Dilapidated. No, we're not referring to the more picturesque parts of Fanboy Towers (though could well be), but to the environments found in Fatal Frame IV. The latest edition of Famitsu has some of the first gameplay shots from the Tecmo/Grasshopper Manufacture collaboration, most of which feature the title's waif of a heroine and some not entirely pleasant sights; you can see the full scans at the "Source" link below.

It also appears that Nintendo's Japanese arm has updated its release schedule with a date for the camera-based horror title -- Nintendo itself will be publishing Fatal Frame IV in Japan on July 31st.

Now I need a US date, because this game looks sick!

And wow, didn't expect Nintendo to publish a Fatal Frame game, even in Japan..

I feel like Nintendo is making a turn into something good. With Madworld, Fatal Frame, even Alone in the Dark, they are a few of hopefuly many more game coming out that will cater to the "hardcore" fans, or as I am, someone that just wants Nintendo to flap it's creative wings and give us a decent library choice of games. E3 and hopefully Comic Con we will see a fresh batch of stuff.
