Nintendo Reviews | Latest Famitsu Scores for Wii & DS, Plus New Games

06.06.2007

The latest issue of Japanese publication Famitsu has been released, revealing the latest batch of reviews, plus some other news tidbits. First of all, here are the latest reviews:

Trusty Bell: Chopin no Yume (Xbox 360, Bandai Namco): 9 | 9 | 9 | 8 - 35/40
Ninja Gaiden Sigma (PS3, Tecmo): 9 | 8 | 8 | 8 - 33/40
Mizuiro Blood (NDS, Bandai Namco): 10 | 8 | 7 | 8 - 33/40 (http://mizuirochang.jp/top.html)
Game de Demashita! Powerpuff Girls Z (NDS, Bandai Namco): 5 | 5 | 3 | 5 - 18/40
Mahou Sensei Negima!? Neo-Pactio Fight!! (Wii, Marvelous): 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 - 16/40

In addition to these scores, it was revealed that the DS will be getting a new product called "Interview Master", in which you will be taught how best to do job interviews. Also, a Wii version of anime show Kekkaishi is being developed, following the current success of the DS iteration.

Finally, in what seems like a slow week, anyone who pre-orders Square Enix's It's a Wonderful world for the Nintendo DS, will receive a cute little cat toy, which can be seen here.

Good score on the 360 game - pity it is on a system with few fans. Anyone know what it is about - save me the effort of looking it up.

Temporarily banned until further notice.

It should be a JRPG

Oh dear at the two bottom scores.

Great score for Trusty Bell though, I've been interested in it for a bit. Smilie It's also known as Eternal Sonata and is an RPG by tri-Crescendo, created by people who helped make the Baten Kaitos games.

Trusty Bell is called Eternal Sonata over here. The demo (on japanese marketplace but in English) is pretty rubbish.

It's by the people who did Baton Kaitos, which says a lot...

It's going to be shit and you jolly well know it.

I love Baten Kaitos, but I don't suppose that means anything with a new game, not related to it.

No-one expected a Powerpuff Girls game to be good did they? I love the cartoon, but the games - meh.

Temporarily banned until further notice.

I see all these people insulting the Nintendo corporation because of the lack of mature content. Yet there is something about Nintendo (at least their games) that strikes a certain unadulterated feeling of joy!!! Pokemon Y - 1048-9263-5562

A composer is on his death bed (Frederic Chopin) - you play through his dreamworld as different characters, including his younger self, that all have terminal illnesses which actually give them special powers.

All Chopin's compositions are so moody, yet I love them. That sounds really interesting, I am going to have a look.

OMG - it's Powerpuff Girls Z Smilie

Are you an unlockable and playable character in the game Smilie

Temporarily banned until further notice.

ohm 07.06.2007#12

I can't reveal that information just yet...

The Chopin game interests me a bit. I'll wait for an English review though, I don't trust Famitsu. Especially when it comes to RPGs.

Raff 07.06.2007#14

It's as generic as they come. This is the demo, look at the archaic 'world' as your badly animated character trundles along, the crappy camera completely glued to him.

And then to top it all off, imported saturday morning American cartoon voices.
