Players who Preorder and Purchase Upcoming Wii™ Exclusive From GameStop and EB Games Will Receive a Bonus CD Containing Select Tracks from the Game Soundtrack

Torrance, Calif., (February 12, 2010) – XSEED Games revealed today that players who preorder FRAGILE DREAMS: FAREWELL RUINS OF THE MOON from GameStop and EB Games will receive a copy of MOONLIGHT TRACKS, a special selection of 12 tracks from the game including the opening and ending Japanese theme songs. The MOONLIGHT TRACKS special preorder bonus will be available exclusively at GameStop and EB Games together with the retail release of the game, but only while supplies last. Developed by NAMCO BANDAI Games and tri-Crescendo, FRAGILE DREAMS: FAREWELL RUINS OF THE MOON will be available in North America in March 2010, exclusively for Wii™.

The North American release has also been confirmed as containing the original Japanese voices in addition to the newly recorded English voice-overs, as well as a newly created “Extras” option that becomes available once the game has been cleared. This new mode allows players to revisit key event movies from the game in the movie gallery, view concept art, and watch the original Japanese trailers. As an added bonus, FRAGILE DREAMS: FAREWELL RUINS OF THE MOON will also feature a dual-sided box front, with the original Japanese box front on the reverse side.

Marked by a remarkably haunting score, FRAGILE DREAMS: FAREWELL RUINS OF THE MOON finds protagonist Seto exploring an eerie and abandoned world, seemingly populated only by haunting ghosts and demons. As this lonely and lost soul, players encounter memorable characters, and discover the back story behind scavenged items that provide insight into the population’s last days before a devastating apocalypse. Amidst this strangely beautiful atmosphere, players utilize the Wii Remote™ as a flashlight to illuminate Seto’s surroundings, solve puzzles and interact with the bleak, devastated environment, set to a moving, emotional soundtrack.

Paris, France – February 12, 2010 – Alien After All, the French digital entertainment designer and producer, in co-production with Neko Entertainment, announced today DodoGo!, its first video game for the Nintendo DSi coming this Spring for download exclusively on Nintendo DSi Shop.

The devastating wave has also brought a hungry and sneaky predator to the island looking for tasty eggs to snack upon.
