XSEED Games Announces The Last Story Exclusively for Wii
Highly Anticipated Wii-exclusive Action RPG to be Released for the North American Market
Press Release:
"Torrance, Calif., (February 22, 2012) – XSEED Games, an independent-minded publisher, today announced a partnership with Nintendo that will bring The Last Story™ to North America, exclusively for Wii™. Developed by legendary creator Hironobu Sakaguchi, and his studio, MISTWALKER, in conjunction with Nintendo, The Last Story has players taking charge of a band of mercenaries and journeying with them into a sprawling cinematic adventure. The agreement with Nintendo grants XSEED Games exclusive publishing rights to The Last Story in North America when the game ships this summer.
"I am very happy to be able to confirm that The Last Story will be released in North America," stated Hironobu Sakaguchi, CEO of MISTWALKER. "XSEED Games has a reputation for bringing high-quality JRPGs to America, and I'm sure they will do a great job with this release too."
Jun Iwasaki, President of XSEED Games, shared Mr. Sakaguchi's sentiments. "I am excited to have the opportunity to work on such a unique and ground-breaking RPG. I'm sure that North American gamers will love this title."
The Last Story follows Zael and his band of fellow adventurers as they go to Lazulis Island, the only region prospering as the mainland of the Empire slowly rots away, in search of work and a better future. After securing employment with the ruler of the island, Count Arganan, Zael dreams of finally achieving a secure life as a knight and putting his unstable mercenary past behind him, but things don't exactly go to plan when events during their first mission change his life forever...
The Last Story was developed by Nintendo and MISTWALKER, exclusively for Wii. The game will be published by XSEED Games in North America in Summer 2012. XSEED Games will release more product updates in the coming months.

I trust the other reason is Xenoblade?
If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles.
If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat.
If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.

I don't know much about the characters (except that I adore the chara-design) and story of this game but I guess I will buy it... eventually. It's a Sakaguchi (+Uematsu) game after all. I just know he tried to make the game different than traditional J-RPGs. I heard complaints about it but I will see for myself.

Glad to hear it. Hopefully Sakaguchi brought his A-game and people will see what's been missing from Final Fantasy for the past 10 years

Well I like both mistwalker and Xseed so it will be a day 1 buy for me. LOL
I like both companies as well. Which is why I'm going to give the game a shot despite some of the things I've heard.
