Muramasa: The Demon Blade has a cast of 10+ characters and is a highly artistic, beautifully drawn, side-scrolling action RPG that is exclusive to the Wii. VGB runs you through both the main characters and their enemies.
Nintenderos: "We kick off our interviews this year with a very special one with George Kamitani, president of Vanillaware. In case you didn't know this study, it is the one behind games of the stature of Muramasa: The Demon Blade, Odin Sphere or Dragon's Crown. In addition to, of course, unforgettable titles like the wonderful 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim published by Atlus a few months ago."
With the ongoing pandemic shutting down many IRL cherry blossom viewing parties, here are some games where you can still enjoy some beautiful spring sakura scenes
How do you introduce people to folklore and fairy tales? Introducing people to mythology can be easy when they are young or in school, as such stories can sometimes be used to teach morals, introduce concepts that might be difficult for people to otherwise understand, act as warnings and get imaginations working. Once folks get older, it can be more difficult to get them engaged and interested in legends. Fortunately, some Japanese video games can step in to bridge the gap.
Hope against hope it will release on PSN and XBLA in the future.
We need more quality 2D games.
i cant wait for Muramasa Demon Blade wanted it since i saw the 1st trailer, i was a huge fan of Odin sphere and this looks as good as if not better, hopefully i can get my hands on it and do some serious demon slaying soon.
I enjoyed this game, but took it back after it was getting somewhat repetetive. I got tired of having to backtrack all the time and having to fight the same enemies i already beat the first time through. They really couldve made this game so much better than they did. The artwork of this game is incredible though and i did enjoy the fighting style of it. Definately one of those Wii games that makes you proud to be a Wii owner. Im thinking of picking up boy and his blob. That game has somewhat the same kind of animation look to it. Looks very much like a cartoon as Muramasa did. I dig the art style of it. Anyone here play that one yet?
Yea, you should. Its a remake of the classic nes version. I never had a chance to play the original, but it was made by the creator of pitfall. It has that sorta look and feel to it i think. Its the next Wii game along with new super mario on my list. Go to you youtube or somethin to check out gameplay footage of it. Looks pretty weird! Its a big 2d game out here for the Wii and an exclusive.
