Nicalis Teases SNES-Style JRPG Title For 3DS

I'd always feared that Nicalis' games would be overrated. I've since played them all, and they are AMAZING!

Wait, are they making the title or just publishing it? Because the latter would take ~two years and the former would take three. It's a little early to get excited

not to mention we're still waiting on a few more games that they'd teased a while ago

Well, let's hope this game will reach the EU eShop shores. Still waiting for Cave Story!

Im not excited. Because Nicalis = No release in EU

What's with the bait-and-switch, dudes? SNES-style game promised in the article title, game with SNES-style music in the article itself. That's not the same thing! :/

^that's how I read it too

@Sephariel
I feel just like you do

Nope, i'm not excited.
What does SNES-Style music mean?
Less instruments, channels and with that, less quality?
Sorry, i'm no graphic or sound whore, but why not use what can be used and instead using out of date-things?

I doubt they will do anything very well. It will likely be a port at between 4 and 8 times the price of something I already have.

If it is as good as the best SNES Music that would be fine. (Hell if it is as good as the Mother 3 soundtrack than GBA quality would be fine).

The Famicom version of Castlevania 3 has good enough music even.

The thing about when people go for xxx style they never seem to compete with the best only the middle of the road. (I would rather them just not bother).

Look at the mess they caused for La Mulana (And pity any dev who decides to work with them).

(Ignore the above if they are making it themselves because then obviously they should be able to do what they like).

How about Cave Story+ for EU first eh Nicalis?

@datamonkey And Ikachan...

Please FIRST try to unlock Cave story + for European eShop. Please, please please -_-

We know from an old news that it's in Nintendo Hands BUT you (@Nicalis) can surely do something ?????

Nicalis is good at teasing but bad at releasing !

Misleading header, but stoked nonetheless.

@MeWario

I'm about to buy one.

@Rief

For retro! 3DS VC is growing. People are playing alot of older games, now.

@WinterWarm Yeah, Retro is fine and all, but a new game isn't retro, even if it has outdated graphics and music. This is just being lazy.

@Rief

Two words. Mutant Mudds.

@WinterWarm Which i don't really like, and it is NOT Retro. Something can only be Retro if it has a specific age.
I can't call my WiiU Retro, because it isn't. Retro-styled is a whole other thing, though. But when it comes to games, retro-styled doesn't mean it has retrographics or sound, but retro-like Gameplay.

@Rief

I fear your unbridled passion is beyond reason.

@WinterWarm Agreed.

They put out fantastic games, and are one of my favorite eShop publishers (VVVVVV, Cave Story, & NightSky are all must haves, if they're available in your territory), but my word do they take a long time to release anything.

You'd think we'd have Yatagratsu & Guxt by now. Both of which were previously announced.

Nicalis = no buy from me! Not like it'll release in PALville anyway

@RR529

NightSky was Nicalis?! Whoa. o.o

VVVVVV music was incredible. Great news from Nicalis, can't what to see the product.

@gurtifus
yes true in every word
and to Nicalis i say "finish the cave story release to eshop before"

Ummm ahhhh.....sorry Europe but if Nicalis brings out such a game my Current boycott might have to come to an end against them.
I'm currently boycotting Nicalis because they haven't released Cave Story yet to Europe. But this just looks to juicy to pass up. If its any consolation. I will keep Ikachan and VVVVVV off my system until Cave story gets the release. I had downloaded Nightsky before my ban started and gotta say pretty incredible
