Anyone hear anything new, seems an almost complete lack of anything concrete about this one, but as a sequel to the best GBA RPG ever, this shoudn't disappoint.

I remember seeing a diagram of this showing A GBA cart and a DS cart going ionto a DS, Hopefully that means there will be a way to port save data over.

Good, I was worried we'd never see another one. Let's hope they don't fuck it up and add needless drawing shit or microphone shit or whatever.

I hope you can port over your save data. I did that with the first two, and it would be really cool to keep using my characters.

I don't imagine you can use the same characters, supposedly, in what little info is out there for this game, it stars one of Alex's descendants some 10+ years after the second game concluded. I'm wagering on 14 years given to look of the guy in the demo. Also, this game is slated for the first of Jan, so the lack of anything on this game save for rumors is disconcerting. I'd imagined this would be met with more fanfare than it has gotten.

Golden sun is strange. It has some of the best RPG music around, everything about it is ridiculously polished... but I still can't remember a single thing about the story. It's all a blur of RPG cliches. Utterly forgettable characters and situations.

Not sure if want.

Nintendo has taken up the policy of not releasing any info on a game till just before it's release.

Bull fucking shit. They are already leaking info about the next Wii Zelda that won't even be announced until E3 2010.

He's right. Zelda and Galaxy 2 are the exception, not the rule.

..although Nintendo recently admitted that this might not be such a great idea.

Gee, ya think Nintendo?! If there's no buzz behind a game, then you can't generate enough interest in time for release, I bet this game fails because of it.

I totally see this happening with the new Mario & Luigi game. It's brilliant and I saw next to nothing about it. A ho-hum response to its unveiling at E3, then no marketing push behind it at all. If it weren't for folks on TNL talking up how good it is, or my own interest in the series, I would've totally not known it existed.

It's terrible that they don't even try with good games like it, hell, even NSMBWii is getting the shaft, in comparison with how much they're willing to push stuff like Wii Fit Plus and Sports Resort.
