AndrewTS 0 Report post Posted April 26, 2005 I've plugged the hell out of WayForward's Shantae in the past, and though they've mostly been saddled with licensed projects, their original stuff has been high quality, and they've even made enjoyable games out of freakin' Wendy the witch. Sigma Star Saga, their newest project (well, supposedly they're also working on Shantae Advance as well) is a hybrid action/rpg/shooter (well, think of an Adventure game like Zelda, but with leveling up and shooting sections). I've been awaiting it since I first saw screenshots, and now there's an online preview... http://www.1up.com/do/previewPage?cId=3139880&did=1 There's also a massive article with tons of screenshots in the newest Nintendo Power.

Matt Young 0 Report post Posted April 26, 2005 Wow, what a strange coincidence. I had never heard of this game before, but I went to Namco's website this morning looking for Tales of Symphonia stuff and saw that they had announced it on January 20th. It seems like an awesome concept. I was actually going to post about it today. Have you been watching me? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AndrewTS 0 Report post Posted April 27, 2005 I'd heard about this game about 2 months ago, but I had yet to see any significant amount of info about it until now. Oh, and correction--I think Shantae Advance is finished now, but they hadn't gotten it released yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AndrewTS 0 Report post Posted May 19, 2005 Bump, for a tidbit on a 1up reporter's blog: "Sigma Star Saga is coming along really well (it plays like an RPG version of Guardian Legend and the graphics remind me of Secret of Mana in places)" So far, so good.

Use Your Illusion 0 Report post Posted May 19, 2005 Looks pretty cool. The incentives for me purchasing a DS are growing by the hundreds with this bloody E3 thing going on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt Young 0 Report post Posted May 19, 2005 I wasn't interested in the DS much at all, but the Wi-Fi hot spot they had set up for competitive play, along with Nintendogs and the awesome Sonic game in which both scerens connect to form one huge world make me want one now. I want to have one at E3 to play with people. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
