Level-5 Announces Wonder Flick, A New RPG Coming To The Wii U In Japan Next Year

Why does this look so much like dragon quest?

It's coming to everything but 3DS I wonder why. Still looks quite interesting might get it on WIi U or Vita.

Hopefully it will come to the Wii U in NA and EU.

It better release outside of Japan or I will cry

@Metalslime That world map just screams Dragon Quest VIII to me

cross-platform saving? why cant they do that with other games?

Aw... this game seems interesting, until this sentence had to ruin it:

"It will also release on other platforms such as PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, PlayStation Vita, Xbox One, iOS and Android, though the touch mechanics will incorporate smartphones and tablets with the system in the case of the Sony and Microsoft platforms."

@kasplat I agree.
Not very interested in the game for now, but I'm curious to see what it will work on home consoles, as this seems very much designed for iOS from the ground up.

This looks interesting, although I'm not so sure about the "touch-based" part.

Bummer that it isn't an exclusive, but it looks like it will play much better on the Wii U anyway. Hopefully this comes to the West.

That looked great... until the gameplay I'll keep an eye out for it, but don't have high hopes.

@retro_player_22 How does that ruin it? More platforms means more people get to play it.

@MrSRArter
True but it being released on other platforms means there's no point in getting this for any of them if you already had an android iOS or PS3. Chances are more people will probably be getting this for iOS because of it being cheaper. Would had being something special if it's a console exclusive.

Meh, not impress.

It will sell 12 copies on Xbox One

If the beginning of that video is in game graphics and not cut scenes i will be happy. Pikmin 3 has proved that its possible

the only thing i can see is a smartphone game

Bring it to Europe and I'll check it out. On Wii U, of course. It does look somewhat like Dragon Quest, but it also reminds me of Little King's story. You know, that gem on Wii, not the Vita version with added 'teenage coolness'. Or was it 'all charm removed'? Anyway, I never understood how a charming Cing (R.) I.P. could get a PS Vita exclusive sequel... And such a bleh looking one...

I'd certainly buy it on my Wii U!

The music sounded really amazing (of course) but I'm not too sure about the gameplay, it certainly has potential though & I've never played a bad Level-5 game (but I haven't played that many either ) so I think I'll give this a shot... After reviews of the game for Wii U of course haha

@Metalslime Funny you should ask. Level 5 made Dragon Quest VIII and IX

Also, it's coming to the Xbox One and Vita but not the 3DS? Wut?!

Hm, play the game on my Wii U at home, and then continue the adventure on Android with the UniPlay system? Seems pretty cool. I'm hoping it takes advantage of 2013's high end chipsets like Tegra 4 and Snapdragon 800 and 2014's like Tegra 5.

@PinkSpider
Home consoles will probably have those graphics in-game, while mobile devices will vary. Vita and high-end 2013 smart devices should get close to that, and 2014 high-end smart devices should look the same as the PS3 version.

I lost all intrest once the gameplay started. It's completley unappealing to me.

Comparing the size of that dragon's head and the shield, I'm surpised the little guy survived.

I was excited til I saw it was basically a touch screen RPG. I'll pass. Great music from Uematsu though!!

Looks amazing,but theres just no point getting excited for it. Theres almost no chance of the west seeing this

Character designs look like Strawberry Shortcake

An RPG with music from Uematsu coming to Wii U? That alone is enough to get this on my radar!

it's on iPhone? no thanks

Ah yes, that caption. 'Flick em' up!' Okay makes offensive gesture is that what the game's about?

pricing will determine whether or not I get it. I despise gaming on my android as I have yet to see it as a viable option when it comes to control and overall quality, but for a game that's essentially built around mobile/tablet and the high cost of developing for a console, with no eshop release on the 3ds?????, most likely bringing a higher price... no thanks. cute idea tho.

It looks interesting but I'm not sure I see a lot of depth here. It looks like it'd be better served on a smartphone, seeing as that's what is shown in the trailer.

@Metalslime Probably because they make Dragon Quest

It looks interesting, But i wonder if theres gonna be any real gameplay differences between the mobile devices and the consoles. If not, Then thats fine too. The battle system looks pretty good too.

Wow, a new Uematsu soundtrack!
And the touchscreen controlled RPG gameplay is something new and looks kinda fun, at least on Wii U and other touch devices.

But the graphics aren't that great (are the shots from the tablet version?), the standard anime style bores me a little. Layton and Inazuma had fantastic character art. Am I expecting too much from Level5 designers?
It's probably too early to tell, but if this turns out to be good I consider getting the Wii U version.

I was excited...until I saw that it's just a mobile phone game brought to Wii u! It looks still interesting though, like Dragon quest for the Wii but with more depht!

Nope, really i am the only one having a problem with the art style?

Dragon Quest and Ni No Kuni look mature compared to this, sigh.
Thank goodness there's Xenoblade, i've put 300 hours in the first one that was limited because of the Wii cabilities so really i won't need a JRPG for long after X is out.

What is happening to Level-5? 8/
