"N I N T E N D O D S
- Nintendo will release an English version of Brownie Brown's Nintendo DS RPG Magical Vacation 2 in Europe in January 2007."
Hopefully they will release it in NA too!

The screenshots look really pretty, and the game can supposedly be played entirely with the stylus.
I'd love to take a crack at an english language version myself. Brownie Brown does good work.

Luckily with the UK getting an English language version of MV2, we'll get one as well.

Yeah, I thought about that too.
Seems like it might be the only chance we have...

This is a rough time to release the game, there's a slew of good DS stuff coming out right now that're much higher profile, and then the Wii is coming out in a couple weeks... but still, this is a very charming game and it deserves some attention.

P.S. I am getting this game in the mail, and looking forward to getting hands-on knowledge of what Brownie Brown is capable of, even though I can best describe the art style as girls with rasta dreadlocks, in the worst possible way...

And the graphics are a bit... underpowered compared to what we know the DS is capable of. That doesn't really detract from the gameplay to me, though in retrospect, the stylus controls that I was so excited about are a bit... cumbersome. They work, sure, but I think I'd rather the game played with the D-pad and buttons instead.
Still early into the game (I just got to the mole city), but it seems a bit garden-variety so far.

Whereas Golden Sun and Fire Emblem were very much RPGs, and you could've seen those games being top notch RPGs for the SNES or something, when I play Starsign I'm very aware I'm playing a handheld game... it's very linear, very designed to be played in bite-sized morsels, and in the end, very plain as a result.
It's not that it's a bad game, you understand, it's just that it doesn't shine in any aspect.
