Pokémon + Nobunaga's Ambition game will arrive on March 17, 2012. The announcement came from the latest issue of Jump. New details on the game have been revealed along with the release date.

The game is a crossover between the Pokémon series and Nobunaga’s Ambition series, turn-based strategy games set in historical Japan. In the game, players will be able to choose either a male or female protagonist and (regardless of their gender) will start off with an Eevee as a partner. They must then travel across the 17 kingdoms defeating the generals and their partner Pokémon, in their path in an attempt to unite the country. 

The battles will feature six-on-six matches where generals will be able to use their "busho powers" to assist them. Players will be able to recruit wild Pokémon as well as generals before each battle in order to build up their armies.

Additionally, Amazon has released the box art of the game, revealing that the game will have Wi-Fi features.

There have been no announcements on whether or not the game will come to America.

Man this is such a cool crossover, but I have a feeling that this will stay Japan only.

I would so buy this game. But I know there is next to no hope of it coming to America.

Though lately, I feel like Nintendo has announced next to nil for games coming to America. Japan is getting a lot of love.

If the game were just Nobunaga's Ambition I'd say there was only a 50/50 chance of it coming to NA. But this is also Pokemon too, and Pokemon sells well in NA, so for that reason I think there's a good chance of it coming over here.

I know this won't leave Japan, but I don't care as long as someone can translate it or patch it or whatever. I'm dying to play this. I absolutely love games like this
