Michael Perry writes: "This could easily be one of my most anticipated games of this year, and not just on the Wii either. Muramasa: The Demon Blade is a stunning game in the visuals department on a console that has a hard time dazzling gamers not having HD support, and this developer has already impressed with Odin Sphere which released on the PS2. This is looking like a great year for the Wii and this title is one of the reasons. Now that Muramasa has a publisher, Ignition Entertainment, we should expect this game to hit retail shelves sometime this September."
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."

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.
