 D3PUBLISHER OF AMERICA ANNOUNCES DRAGON BLADE: WRATH OF FIREâ„¢ EXCLUSIVELY  FOR NINTENDO'S Wiiâ„¢ SYSTEM    


LOS ANGELES - June 21, 2007 - The power of the dragon is in your hands as D3Publisher  of America, Inc. (D3PA), a publisher and developer of interactive entertainment  software, today announced that Dragon Blade: Wrath of Fireâ„¢ will be available  exclusively for the Wiiâ„¢ system this fall.  Designed specifically for the  Wii system, Dragon Blade is a 3rd person action-adventure game where players  unleash the magical powers of a fierce dragon, creating a unique and visually  stunning weapon through their sword and arms.  Players will utilize an intuitively  designed, two-handed Wii control scheme and use both arms simultaneously to emulate  the dragon's arms, wings, tail, fire and more as they embark on an epic fantasy  adventure in more than 20 unique environments in 6 visually stunning worlds.    


"Dragon Blade is one the few hack 'n slash games that will be available on the  Wii this fall and the development team, Land Ho, has done a great job to fully  utilize the Wii controls so players will experience parallel movement between  themselves and the game avatar like never before," said Yoji Takenaka, executive  vice president and chief operations officer, D3PA.  "With its arcade style pick-up  and play gameplay, we expect Dragon Blade to appeal to gamers of all ages."    


Featuring an original story by Richard A. Knaak, one of the best-selling authors  behind the immensely popular DragonLance series as well as other popular series  based on Warcraft, Diablo, and the Age of Conan, Dragon Blade immerses players  in a compelling storyline and richly detailed fantasy worlds.  Players will use  their dragon powers and hundreds of combat options to battle colossal enemies  and embark on quests to upgrade their weapons and make them even more powerful  over time.    


Dragon Blade: Wrath of Fire is under development by LAND HO! Co., Ltd.  The game  is currently rated "RP" ("Rating Pending") by the ESRB and is slated for release  in fall 2007.

I will get this unless the reviews for it absolutely suck. I'm going to feel like such a humongous nerd.

I'll get it before you do.

A glooming peace this morning with it brings;
The sun, for sorrow, will not show his head:
Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things;
Some shall be pardon'd, and some punished:
For never was a story of more woe
Than this of Sega and her Mashiro.
