– Game’s main menu image is based on story progression
– One of these images is of a star-gazing tower
– Sakaguchi believes it will be easy to progress in story mode due to hint characters
– The hint characters provide clues as to what to do next
– Quests must be found, but it isn’t difficult to do so
– Party members that tag along with you can’t be selected during the game’s main story, but you can replace them while revisiting dungeons
– Pause battles at any time by hitting the “-” or Home button
– Some battle weapons will be obtained by playing online
– These weapons range from easy to difficult to acquire
– Strengthening items for weapons obtained in online mode can only be found in online mode as well

This trademark was discovered in the US trademark database…

Hmm… Rodea the Sky Soldier sounds a lot like Tenku no Kishi Rodea. Perhaps XSEED will bring the game overseas?

This information comes from Nintendo UK boss David Yarnton…

“With all the conversions, when we do it in Europe we’ve got to do the whole of Europe. So it’s multiple languages. It has to be viable. We’ve got so much on our plate at the moment. The most important one is in the first quarter this year. Kirby’s Epic Yarn is the most important title. We’ve got some great product coming out. On top of that, when we add in 3DS, it’s just so much. We’ve released quite a lot of RPGs on the Wii in the UK. It’s an area that’s been growing for us. It’s up to the market. We never write anything off.”

Eventually, I believe The Last Story will be localized for North American and European markets. It just seems like a high-profile release for Nintendo. It’s a new game from the creator of Final Fantasy, bundles were made available in Japan, etc.
