Namco Bandai has announced Summon Night X : Tears Crown for the Nintendo DS in the latest V-Jump magazine. This new RPG will be released on February 12, 2009 in Japan.
Siliconera: Not too long ago, I picked up a copy of Atlus' recently released DS RPG, Summon Night: Twin Age. The first time I went into my item menu, I noticed that I had 50 high-level HP recovery items, along with the same number of high-level PP recovery items. While this struck me as odd, considering I never picked up any of said items, I didn't really think much of it. Later, while browsing messageboards for the game, I noticed that others had discovered not only the items, but also the fact that the two main characters both start out with a high-level skill that they shouldn't have at level one. Interestingly, it turns out that these skills and items were not present at the beginning of the Japanese release of the game. In the Japanese version, you start out with an empty inventory and no skills at all.
According to an updated release schedule that publisher Atlus sent out today, two of its upcoming RPG localizations have been delayed.
Even though Banpresto will be officially absorbed into the Namco Bandai conglomerate they will be publishing Flight Plan's remake of Summon Night on April 24. The Nintendo DS remake adds obligatory stylus control, but unfortunately no Wi-Fi battles.
