Phantom Brave: We Meet (the trailer) Again

by Andrew Yoon { May 8th 2009 at 1:28AM }

The upcoming Wii port of Phantom Brave is coming this June. For those of you unfamiliar with Nippon Ichi's SRPG, this new trailer gives an overview of what to expect. The Wii version gets an additional scenario and new characters unseen in the PS2 original. With a zany style expected of the Disgaea studio, Phantom Brave fills the all-important "super crazy Japanese SRPG" genre currently missing on the Wii.

When they say create characters, in what aspect, actual appearance or stats?

There are over thirty (i think close to fifty) character classes that you can choose from. You can choose their stats, titles (which I believe changes their color. been a long time since I've played). I could go count, but I'm too lazy. You don't get to adjust their face or anything like in an mmo.

Is this a WiiWare game? It seems to be all the rage to release GBA/DS-level graphics on the Wii at the moment, what with FFCC:Echoes of Time being a perfect example.

And yes i know the whole point is gameplay, hence why i've purchased a Wii. This game does look very cool, in a very 'Golden Sun' kind of way, and i am tempted to get it, but it would obviously be more suited as a WiiWare title.

there are 2 similar jrpgs for the ps3,with the same graphics.Get a grip.

PRETTY GRAPHICS DOES NOT MAKE A GOOD GAME.

Foetoid knows nothing about the gaming industry, as we can all see clearly.

Funny how you mention that you know it's all about gameplay and that you have a Wii, yet two idiots don't read that. The just skip past that data and insult you.

Unfortunately, even with GBA/DS-level graphics, games like this are probably much too big for WiiWare. :(

Susumu @ May 8th 2009 1:38PM

Suited as a wiiware title? You have obviously never played a NIS srpg. There is way too much for it to be a wiiware title.

I love phantom brave and I'm definitely getting this game.

I love how Japanese developers great games to the Wii.American developers could learn alot from them.They treat the Wii as a real console not just a shovelware box.Hell, if American developers were any like their Japanese counterparts, the Wii would have less shovelware and increased third party support.God bless Japanese developers and all those games they make.Amen.

not much to live for?

Anti-Villian @ May 8th 2009 6:46AM

>.< that was really harsh of me, I'm sorry.

schuyler @ May 8th 2009 9:12AM

I can't tell if your being sarcastic or not... you do know this is a port of a 5 year old game right(although its a freakin sweet 5 year old game)

This looks awesome, I really need a new srpg, I'm still playing all my fire emblems for the 18545465 time.

I didn't play this before (never got a ps2, played games on a friend's house), so I'm quite happy that they're porting it.

Crazylink @ May 9th 2009 1:11AM

Why do all NIS games look exactly alike? Half of the spirtes I say came straight from Disgaea.

modnite @ May 9th 2009 12:10PM

I guess it's just his style. Similar to how all games with art done by Akira Toriyama look like they're DBZ related. It all has to do with the style the artist chose. Still though, the game looks to be awesome and I love how silly the video was. I wanna get this.
