I was watching TV last night, and I saw an advert for a new Nintendo DS RPG set in Tokyo. It’s great because the locations seem to be accurate. I recognised the Tokyu Hands store in Shibuya in one of the sections, plus you’ve got combinis in there, etc. Plus, of course, the artwork looks nice. It features regular Tokyoites taking on demons and monsters in the streets of Tokyo - looks like it might be a good game. I’m buying my DSi on Monday. More to follow…
UPDATE: I still haven’t committed to buying my DSi. I spent a fortune in Harajuku and Ginza on Monday, so I’m reluctant to fork out for one.

I love that feeling of recognise somewhere you’ve visited in a videogame; for me it was Barcelona in Tony Hawks 3 I think. This game looks pretty nifty, I imagine its only going to come out in Japan though :/

It will be out in the USA in June.
