Land ho!

IRVINE, CALIFORNIA – September 21, 2010 – Atlus U.S.A., Inc., today announced that Etrian Odyssey III: The Drowned City, the third chapter in the acclaimed series of exploration RPGs for Nintendo DSTM, has sailed into stores across North America.

A limited edition first-run “Explorer’s Poster” is included free in the first manufacturing run of the game. The dual-sided, collectible poster is a full-color, two-sided affair: on one, a lush collage of characters set against the crystal blue backdrop of Armoroad’s seas. On the other, skill trees for all of the starting character classes, offering fledgling adventurers invaluable insight for their crucial initial customization decisions.

Earlier today, we brought you the news that Cave Story is apparently in the works for DSiWare. We weren’t quite sure if Nintendo Power made a typo, but Nicalis confirmed just a short while ago that it is indeed happening. Believe it or not, the game is almost complete, and it’s “currently in final testing internally.” Nicalis also made mention of the European WiiWare version, of which it was said that it’s still on track to be released.

Man, I can’t believe Shantae’s almost here. I feel like Risky’s Revenge was announced years ago! Fortunately, we won’t have wait much longer… We’re less than two weeks away now. I know I’ll be downloading the game as soon as possible.
