We're all thinking it: it's far too awesome to survive the trip overseas. This amazing art is doomed to be replaced with 3D character art upon its release in North America. But we can appreciate it now!
We can also appreciate the tiny text at the bottom, which reveals a release date of October 29 in Japan. Nintendo of America has yet to update the "Q1 2010" date for North America -- a date that must have seemed like a good idea at the time, but now places this niche game, which we want to protect like a little baby, in the middle of a very dangerous game environment.

BTW, does anyone know if the characters speak Japanese or English? S&P wouldn't be the same without cheesy English speaking actors =P

I can't wait for this one, I'm a huge fan of the original, even with some crappy controls. I think that the controls will be incredibly easy to use on the Wii Remote. Also this is the most proof I ever seen that Nintendo does care about hardcore (A sequel to a game that was only released outside of Japan by VC getting a sequel everywhere!). This is one of my most anticipated games for the Wii!
It isn't that bad of a story once you put the pieces together (which are all there, surprisingly). But it doesn't really matter much, Treasure aren't known for their story telling abilities =P
