Let’s add this in here for the sake of completeness, shall we?

I’ll just say that those of you who haven’t imported the game and live in North America should absolutely purchase this game. It’s one of my favorite titles of all time!

It’s man vs. machine in a new game coming to Nintendo’s Wii™ console in spring. Xenoblade Chronicles™ asks players to use the Monado blade to take on a seemingly endless series of invading Mechon robots in a sweeping role-playing adventure.

The main character is Shulk, a weapons researcher who must confront the Mechon by wielding the ancient Monado blade. It’s the only weapon that has any effect against the Mechon, and it also enables Shulk to see the future.

Along with Fun! Fun! Minigolf TOUCH! for the eShop, Shin’en has another 3DS title in the works. The studio confirmed awhile back that they were developing a new Jett Rocket project for Nintendo’s portable.

While it’s still unclear as to how the game will play, Shin’en has confirmed that it won’t be a sequel to Jett Rocket for WiiWare. Fans can expect a “completely surprising” title according to Shin’en co-founder Manfred Linzner.

Linzner said (rough translation):

“For now, we can only say that we have a title in the works, plays in the Jett Rocket the main role. However, it is not a sequel to ‘Jett Rocket’ for WiiWare, but something that is independent and completely surprising.”
