Ni No Kuni: Opening Cinema

[GMasis001]

Has the title been localized for the US or is it still in Japanese...?

[CoeurlToy]

You just KNOW that the little lamp-nosed fairy's voice is going to be ruined in the dub.

[samstellisgod]

@CoeurlToy Agreed. I would rather they kept the Japanese and provided English subtitles. O well. Need to work on my Japanese language skills :)

[SBaby]

@samstellisgod Or at least allow us to switch between the two. Actually, they might, given the size of PS3 discs.

[PotrocksMginty]

sounds like a slut... just sayain

[mastergp4life]

This is what a 3D Pokemon game could have looked like.

[xCyb3rPunkx]

@Furorentsu

I think you've been seeing too much Disney mate. 0:30 is normal stampede, 2:15 looks more like the fat witch from Howl's Moving Castle which makes more sense.

[0neHundredPercent]

If you own a PS3 this should be on your most wanted list!!!!!!!! I am so getting this! If you don't have a PS3 yet... then.. well.. GET ONE RIGHT NOW! GO! SHOPS BUY! NOW! So you can enjoy real exclusive games like this! :)

[UnNuclear]

I didn't want a PS3 for Uncharted, FFXIII, or anything else, BUT NOW I WANT ONE!!!

[FREAKFANATIC]

I feel sorry for people who don't still don't own a PS3. This and Tales of Graces F are a must buy for me. :D

[MrFinalgamer]

@FREAKFANATIC and Tales of Xillia...obviously whenever Namco decides to localize it...

[FREAKFANATIC]

@MrFinalgamer The localization for Tales of Xilia is going to depend on us of how well Tales of Graces F is going to sell here in America.

[0neHundredPercent]

Poor xbox... with no exclusives!

[SBaby]

@0neHundredPercent Yeah, it's not like they have any first-person shooters...

[Monkeyweed1993]

what console?

[0neHundredPercent]

@Monkeyweed1993 ps3

[EL12111]

Ghibli means epicness is guaranteed

[dragonsroc]

this kind of looks more like the ending

[shadowgirlof11]

Good thing I know some Japanese.

[ValidusMos]

@DreamzTonight

Yep :)

[DreamzTonight]

Is this game going to be coming to the US?

[MegaShadowrunner]

Excellent. :D

[theintoxicant]

Boy sounds like girl? Buffalo looks retarded? Game appears fun? Sold.

[pizzakingorama]

i love studio Ghibli.

[THRILLERBOY1234]

I will definitely be playing this game. The graphics are charming and the story seems compelling.

[IceStrike216]

Only kids and mentally challenged grown ups will be playing this game...

[deviltetsuo555]

@IceStrike216

you post on the wrong video,that's call of duty mw3. :)

[2Niyari]

These graphics are incredible, its like your playing a professionally made cartoon.

[Pottsquito]

Love the characters. Day one for me...US version please!!! When?

[GMasis001]

i wish it were is in english…. :(

[contineus999hungry]

@GMasis001 there will be! 2012!

[Knowledgeseeker]

I was hoping we would be seeing some subtitles since this game will apparently be released in subtitled format with Japanese audio.

[7331F0X]

holy shit it's Luke...oh wait

[StainIessChina]

Yay new Level 5 game, I hope it's just as awesome if not more than Dark Cloud 1 and 2.

[MrBenjaminpitts]

studio ghibli animation is bananas.......

[ThePhsyco1]

@quarterpost It was just a joke bro chill.

[TalesStudio]

This game looks good :)

[PeppyPipLBP]

The graphics look freakin sweet but idk the character design looks weird to me xD If this comes out in the US I think I'll get it though

[Cocoabine]

I'm a big fan of Studio Ghibli. This pleases me.

[OhhhItsKainee]

Studio Ghiblis has a GAME?! OMG.

[ImNotOb4ma]

Japan -1

[nakamine1713]

Hurry and release...from Skryrim to Ni!!!! ...wait.

[nigropuntdus]

so excited for this, kinda forgot about it for a few months but now I'm more hyped than ever.

[ChaosBirth12]

does this have an online pass? 'cause i'm so sold to the game!

[MrFinalgamer]

@ChaosBirth12 it's a JRPG it doesnt even have online -_-

[kidmafiakid]

Alrighty, so get a PS3 before...*looks at release date* then.

[xonexlastxkissx]

I want this so damn bad, been waiting almost a year.

[mobyfreerunner]

just makes me love my ps3 even more XD cannot wait for this game!

[mohammedje56]

As expected from Level 5.

[5Canonz]

i dont know what this is... but it looks like its better off as a CGI anime, instead of a full blown game.

[Nirvash214]

@5Canonz Stfu noob

[5Canonz]

@Nirvash214

really? thats your glorious comeback?

[Nirvash214]

@5Canonz PenisPenisPenisPenisPenisPenis­PenisPenisPenisPenisPenisPenis­PenisPenisPenisPenisPenisPenis­PenisPenisPenisPenisPenisPenis­PenisPenisPenisPenisPenisPenis­PenisPenisPenisPenisPenisPenis­PenisPenisPenisPenisPenisPenis­PenisPenisPenisPenisPenisPenis­PenisPenisPenisPenisPenisPenis­PenisPenisPenisPenisPenisPenis­PenisPenisPenisPenisPenisPenis­PenisPenisPenisPenisPenisPenis­PenisPenisPenisPenisPenisPenis­PenisPenisPenisPenisPenisPenis­PenisPenisPenisPenisPenisPenis­PenisPenisPenisPenisPenisPenis­PenisPenis

[Furorentsu]

Did anyone else get a Lionking flashback at 0:30 and think that the fat lady at 2:15 looked alot like Ursula from The little mermaid .o.

[SBaby]

@Furorentsu Actually, the fat lady made me think of that witch lady from Spirited Away.

[klink180]

Wait, is it a good thing that the cgi is so much like Studio Ghibli's 2D Animation that occasionally I forget it isn't 2D?

[sgtsquishy]

...... dammit now I have to go out and buy a ps3 just for this game.

[ThePhsyco1]

Welcome to Pokèmon 2.0.

[quarterpost]

@ThePhsyco1 STFU

[JapaneseKiwiBird]

Studio Ghiblis? Sold

[ozzykingofpigs]

My wallet will have a HORRIBLE day when this comes out.

[NyaNya4ever]

Japanese game is always the best.

[NyaNya4ever]

I WANT DIGIMON WORLD 3 BACK!

[amberdrop6]

TAKE MY MONEY.

[4929646]

Y are Japanese companies afraid to put there games on xbox? is it cause they dont know if it would appeal to the ''western'' audience, or they dont like it cause it an american product period.

[plbelanger]

@4929646 Well Xbox is pretty much extinct in Japan. Dark Souls wasn't even released it for it there and most retailers have pulled it from their shelves there.

[XagonogaX]

@4929646 the way it works, it's like if you want to play asian games, buy an asian console.

[ThisIsCurtis]

I cant wait for this a PS3 game from Level 5 hope it is so good like DQ8

[filmswilco1]

it sounds very wrong... O_o

[DaRkLoRd1061]

it's turn based?? sweet, finally a decent jrpg....

[AngryLoo]

Can't wait for this to come out in Europe. Kinda wish it wasn't turn-based, but who knows, if it's done well I may grow to love that gameplay style.

[kingdomlanelover]

Finally! A game that looks like it's a drawing!

[JuliusLayDying]

@kingdomlanelover okami/Braid look them up :) you will LOVE Okami

[SideShowShayne1]

@kingdomlanelover What about Rayman Origins? Where everything was a Hand Drawn Animation....

[lionpure22]

i love these kinds of games, makes it a big change from fucking cod :)

[Kane917]

It's like the Fragile I always wanted. But never came to the U.S

[JoshWilsonization]

I hope you get the option of playing it in japanese when the EU version is out :)

[TheAL845]

Awwwww mannnnn!

[GarredHATES]

Cant friggin wait!

[mikeymoo27]

i hate anime..

[anonb8]

@mikeymoo27 Why? they are a bit kiddish but if you give them enough of a chance then you'll enjoy it.

[SuperSuperLife]

I just finished Nausicaa and I saw this =D

For what console??

[7xC5]

subs?

[GurrenBrigadeSoldier]

Reminds me of Dark Chronicle 2 for the PS2

[azzimaz]

Another one of the many,many wins for the glorious masterpiece of current gen console known as PS3. YEAHOOOOO, sooooo glad this is a PS3 exclusive. It's very obvious from the quality of the visuals here than it's most definitely being optimized to use as much muscle of the PS3.

[shabaddahuha]

Hayao Miyazaki. Famous for creating some of the best Anime movies of all time including Spirited Away and Howl's moving castle and Level 5 famous for Dark Cloud and Dark Chronicle joining together is beyond the highest level of epicness this universe has to offer

[vibratingcat]

@shabaddahuha

miyazaki doesn't have anything to do with this game, he doesn't really do that much anymore (which is fair enough, he is 70). but ghibli is part of it and the soundtrack is done by joe hisaishi who has done the music for i think all of the ghibli films and a bunch of other anime and movies

[repli99]

Was that Spyro 2:36? xD

[levingthedream]

I wish this was Berserk.

[Dulcis90]

as soon? As good, I meant ^^

[Dulcis90]

This game looks like it could be as soon as the best Zelda games, gamplay aswell as story wise.. very interesting :)

[robertaurochenta]

fantastic,the golden age of rpg has return,great for level-5

[DanielMasterConsole]

So, they died

[Pikul86]

I. want. this. now.

[Hullspawn]

This could be the first jrpg in ages that's gonna be as good as I remember from being a kid :D

[matijatu]

@Hullspawn or even better ;)

[Volviert]

Miyazaki=/=Ghibli



[25RedButterflies]

Awesome! A Game by Studio Ghibli!! I hope I don't have to buy a PlayStation to play it, cuz I will do it, $299.99 will have to leave my poor wallet for this game. I hate to do it, but if it's not coming for Xbox 360 as well...so long money.

[Kickersu18]

@25RedButterflies its a ps3 exclusive so u must buy a ps3

[JohnnyLeyenda]

@25RedButterflies

PS3 exclusive, I'm afraid, I don't think the Japanese think it'd be worthy to release it for 360 given the poor sales of the console over there.

[Brambite]

@25RedButterflies it's on ds too

[BlackLionFilms]

@25RedButterflies You did bad buying a 360 rather than a Ps3 inthe first place.

[FMA404]

@25RedButterflies It is a PS3 Exclusive, It said so on GameInformer, and it is the only system that is a tag for the video. Of course, it is nice to have all three systems because they all have their own exclusives.

[Yokoama1st]

Everyone's hoping they don't dub it. I hope they do. I mean, honestly, when have you ever known a Ghibli production to shit all over the dubbing? It's usually spot on, in my experiences. So I hope they do dub it :)

[iamextremelyawesome]

i had this game pre-ordered and then arrow knee blah blah seriously though i fuckin played thebitcha for a few weeks in general and it got bad to worse. have fun playing a broken game and trying to not feel guilty about spending so mucas nigger jeont just to play a FUCKIN UNFINISHED GAME. hate all ya want, faggots. in a few weeks you're gonna get sick of it and regret the 100+ bucks you invested in it.

free to play... get used to those three words. you'll see those A LOT in a few months.....

[MrWerehog23]

Princess Mononoke, THAT is enough of a reason.

[GarredHATES]

@MrWerehog23 another RPG by level 5 on consoles is my reason.

[MrWerehog23]

@GarredHATES You should see Princess Mononoke some day, that movie has a great story, better art design, and the best voice cast you've ever heard in a English Dub. And I mean BEST voice cast.

[GarredHATES]

@MrWerehog23 of course I seen that :P

[ScyL0n]

@MrWerehog23 yea same design hu.......liked it....though not fan

[MrWerehog23]

@ScyL0n That's alright. This game has simpler designs, but it's still interesting to see. Who knows, maybe the story will be darker than PM.

[ScyL0n]

@MrWerehog23 yeah i like the style

[Cyklone56]

i have no idea what this is but it sure holds some sentimental memories to some ppl

[Yokoama1st]

Studio Ghibli is involved in the making of a game?!

...The sauce...is awesome.

[kojirodensetsu]

Please let this come out for XBox 360 eventually please. :'(

[RockBottomRiser21]

12 people have never experienced the wonder of a Ghibli movie.

[dkmorbidus]

Level-5 is one of the best @ for what they do for consoles 

[bleachvt]

Ahh ign ads another game nobody cares about never hear of tv huh

[jellybeancasseroles]

Damnit!! I have an Xbox and this game makes me want to pick up a PS3. I love studio ghibli!!!

[ushbag]

It's a good thing I live in Japan at the moment; I get to play "Ni no Kuni" now, as apposed whenever it gets released in America.

[Yokoama1st]

@ushbag Could always import it, assuming you knew Japanese, which I don't.



[MrGintama96]

Good thing i watch anime, at least i dont need translations.

[UnicornSlaya]

@MrGintama96 lol it helps that I can understand some Japanese from anime :)

[hana707chan]

OMG OMG OMG OMGGGG OMG OMG OMGG

[ryanc519]

the cows in the beginning look like potatoes

[LugiaYourrDad]

hummmm is this coming to america?

[MinatoHikari]

Fucking Hyundai ad...

[AaronsGame]

The background setting is amazing!!!!

[VjRocker007]

i don't mind the game's Japanese dialogue, i just want english subtitles ):

[Chewiejds]

I can tell already that the characters are FULL of personality! I love the art style! Hopefully the gameplay holds up too, then I'm all over this!

[CharmedKitty143]

I just HOPE they WOULD let the players choose between ENGLISH and JAPANESE voices.

[TravZero]

This looks stunning! Hopefully it will live up to the Ghibli name.

[raneanubis]

Get in my life.

[TheBloodyloon]

*sigh* Cel shaded graphics just ruin the magic of ghibli....

[raneanubis]

@TheBloodyloon well thats not true at all, how would you prefer the graphics? I think this looks stunning, an accurate visual interpretation of Studio Ghibli's films.

[GGdota]

No arms...no legs...just palm and feet

[xmido]

I want to play it with japanese audio and english subtitles. Please no english dub.

[thyagopsousa]

Beautiful game!

[JennsBubble]

It would be awesome if they had little easter eggs that featured characters from the pervious movies.

None the less, looks beautiful and cute.

[MasteSheikh]

THIS LOOKS AMAZING!!!!, Sutdio Ghilbi are sooo good, loved every single one of their films and you can tell this game is gonna just like one of their films, unique artwork, beautiful music and hope they give us the jap voices and english sub, will be soooo annoyed if they dub it....

[ShujinSaiko91]

@MasteSheikh

LOL at last part of your comment, but yeah, looking forward to this game.

[HunterGon99]

cookieraider126 is gay (I was trolling sry ppl) awesome game though

[Giro88Keys]

I hope they keep the Japanese voices and sub everything

[SakoresDark]

I don't speak Japanese but I want this

[Belwaer]

dammit dammit dammit dammit

Why did I get an xbox

[Goldenarms73]

Ni No Kuni sounds like a Nazi Zombie map to me.

[cookieraider126]

Gay

[HunterGon99]

By level-5 u say? This is gonna be a really good game not just that but its a story by Miyazaki? Oh man sheer awesoneness

[PanaMacSpana]

Why did Japan let this flunk in sales? The fact even MW3 outsold a big Japanese studio title within Japan itself, i've lost all hope for the industry.

[A23Channel1]

Hey that's cheating! They have a genius to help them make this game.

How can us helpless masses NOT buy it!?

[heronoki]

I used to adore the hell out of Japanese games, but then I took an arrow to the knee.

[WoWFanX]

@heronoki What is that a reference to anyways?

[DuskMarv]

-shits in my pants-

[eppoif1]

This looks like a pretty good game I hope they bring it to the U.S.

XD I thought, when I first clicked on this video that the title had said Niku no Kuni which means 'meat country' instead of Ni no Kuni.

[Dezzli]

Oh gosh I can't wait to get this, its such a beautiful game!

[peruface]

when is this coming out???

[Kanacali]

I find it interesting that Japan uses females for young boys whereas America typically uses pre-pubescent males for anything under the age of 21.

[globox123456789]

Animation by Studio Ghibli and music by Joe Hisaishi. At least in this point it may very well be the best game ever ;)

[NeosTheater]

Reminds me of Ultimate Ninja Storm with the cell shading :). It looks good :D

[Feliexxxxxxxx]

This game makes me think of the ps2/psp game Brave Story

[10XShadeX01]

I hope they do a Japanese language option for the EU/US releases. The Japanese language is just magical in Ghibli. :)

[alons93]

This game looks so fucking epic...

[EvoG4mingTV]

I do hope that they keep the JP language; the moment they dub this incorrectly will be this brilliant game's demise.

[BossSause1337]

What the effect is this...

[TheLiberalPacifist]

is it in english

[hughlingard]

An anthropomorphic boomerang with a lantern piercing; that's what I've been missing in my life.

[Submissive421]

I want this game so bad. With Level-5 creating one of my fave games Dark Cloud 2 and then an awesome company that makes heartfelt movies....combined together....I flipped out after I heard it was coming to America. I can't wait. I hope they change their minds about that magical book as well and let us have it

[ExNightZ]

classic Level 5 inc art

[suckME135]

I am so happy that I have a PS3. I want this game. :D

[hypedpotential]

@suckME135 I don't have a PS3. I want this game :(

[Habbahobba107]

Damn, this looks promising!
