[Review] Radiant Historia: Perfect Chronology
Posted on 6 years ago by Dennis Gagliardotto(@LyonHart_) in 3DS, Reviews | 0 comments
System: 3DS
Release date: February 13, 2018
Developer: Atlus
Publisher: Atlus
It amazes me how even after years of incredible games from a system’s lifecycle, we have been consistently impressed with the “cherry on top”, if you will, at the very end that leaves its mark and gives players one last hoorah before the inevitable new generation. It was Zelda: Breath of the Wild on Wii U for example, and now Radiant Historia on 3DS. With Radiant Historia, we can revisit one of the titles that made the DS so great, and gladly add it to the 3DS’ ineffable library of RPGs. It’s an encore that shows nothing but respect for the craft, the legacy of the DS and 3DS, as well as the genre as whole.

Despite the prominence of Switch over the past year, Nintendo has continued to say that the 3DS isn’t going anywhere. The dedicated portable will still be sold in the future. This is something Nintendo president Tatsumi Kimishima reiterated during the company’s latest financial results briefing.
Kimishima’s remark came in response to a question about a successor to the 3DS. Senior executive officer Ko Shiota weighed in on this as well, and spoke about technology in general, indicating that Nintendo is considering various possibilities.
