More: Fantasy Life, Level-5

Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 9 Comments

Nintendo is working with Level-5 to bring Fantasy Life to the west. The localization is based on the second (and newest) Japanese version, “Fantasy Life Link”.

Nintendo announced yesterday that Fantasy Life players in the west will be able to purchase “Origin Island” DLC, which is described as follows:

The mysterious island will mainly consist of forests, plains and beaches that will be great for fishing. It will also include a giant tower that reaches the sky, which Level-5 will be showing off on their next update.

Here’s the thing: Origin Island appears to be cut from the Fantasy Life Link’s main release. Nintendo and Level-5 are including the online multiplayer from Link, but everything else is being sold as day-one DLC in North America and Europe.

Some will likely view this in two ways. There will be those who are upset by the fact that the content already available in Link will only be available through paid DLC overseas. But on the other hand, some may be pleased with the fact that we’re getting Fantasy Life in the first place, and we will be able to access the extra “Link” content. In Japan, Level-5 did offer owners of the original Fantasy Life to upgrade for a lower price.

REDMOND, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–One is a brilliant archeologist who has traveled the world solving puzzles and unearthing ancient civilizations. The other is a bumbling defense attorney whose sense of justice is matched only by his sense of style. The two seem like an unlikely pair, but with the life of an innocent girl at stake in Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, the two heroes join forces to tackle an enigmatic mystery big enough for both of them. The Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney game launches for Nintendo 3DS on Aug. 29 and combines the puzzle-solving satisfaction of the Professor Layton series with the courtroom drama of the Phoenix Wright franchise.

“This is the whole truth and nothing but the truth: Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney is an absolute treat for longtime fans of both series and newcomers who love puzzles and engaging stories”

According to Level-5 president Akihiro Hino, Youkai Watch is seeing a western release next year. The company already has a toy company in place to support the series. Hino also believes that the success of Youkai Watch is guaranteed.

Hino said:

“In regards too foreign markets, we have been taking a look at it in regards to Yokai Watch. We think it has a big appeal as a very Japanese-ish fantasy story. We already have support from a foreign toy maker company saying that it will be a definite success.”

To keep your friends informed of your in-game exploits, Link Mode also contains a notification setting to communicate your achievements, and ‘Applaud’ the landmarks reached by others.
