Vanillaware's Wii title Muramasa: The Demon Blade is still new in Japan and unreleased in the US, but that doesn't mean they get a break from making games. George Kamiytani, of Vanillaware, has recently announced (via Nintendo Power) that they are indeed making another 2D game.
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.
I heard they have always wanted to get back into the RTS genre after Grim Grimoire on the Ps2.
I love how everything they do is hand drawn, such a rare thing to see nowadays.
oh yeah we can expect another great game then ^_^
They don't seem too bothered about the sales numbers. That's good news!
<3 Vanillaware.
I can't wait to get Muramasa. It's going to be fantastic.
Very good news, but it not like they were going to quit making games was it?
