I love the visual style of this game, and the series as a whole. It's such a shame Publishers seem adamant that the West isn't ready for such a style, despite the 4 or 5 titles that have already made it to the US and Europe.
Thank god we still got Okami, Okamiden, and Muramasa still.
Fuck Konami, as my Nihongo prowess increases by day, I'll soon play games like this with no problem! Konami can choke on my dick, now it's time for my favorite hobby!
very nice, but one very big problem there, you cant just replace what are supposed to be 3D levels with 2D ones it just screws everything and its very conffusing, i can barely tell the depth of the levels, and how far i'm from the item.
soma bringer for the ds for example, it has the same problem but there is a difference, soma is not a game where you have to jump trough obstacles you just kill everything so is not so fuckd up
i loved the mistical ninjas for N64, but this one sucks
Mystical Ninja for SNES didn't really require any dialogue or any understanding of the dialogue to enjoy the basic gameplay. Do you think this game is similar in that respect?
@purvicide I found a really good guide on GameFAQs that says that if you've played other Goemon games and generally know how the games work, what the items do and so on, you should be fine. I ordered a copy from eBay a few days ago, so we'll see...
Past period or futuristic 2nd generation spin-off, comedic or serious, all Goemon games rule. This one is no exception. Anywho, only importers or emulator users can enjoy this game and it's worth it that's for sure. Tis a shame that Western companies considred most of the games to be too Japanese for the West to handle, thus allwoing us to only get 1 SNES and 2 N64 games. Oh well, that's life.
@purpleblizzard Don't forget about "Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon" on the Game Boy! I never played it, but Nintendo Power spent like three months doing a walkthrough of that game. =)
Great series I remember seeing a old preview for Mystical ninja 2 for SNES. Sadly it never came out! Goemon is a great series that could be enjoyed by the U.S. despite its STRONG JAPANESE roots the gameplay is great!
Memorable gameplay, great music, interesting characters and good locations. That's what I know from the N64 version of Mystical Ninja, I had no idea that there was a DS version. Any guesses it didn't get a world wide release. It's definitely deserving of one.
I love goemon (mystical ninja) games! N64 goemon was very cool and old school. This one is a exelent sequel in my opinion, it's a shame I can't understand japanese very well...
why in the world would overhead view suck? Its better than having camera troubles (like what Konami has had in the past) so its so much simpler to have one straight overhead view that allows you to see around the character. Plus, just look at the levels, they are all drawn out in one simple way so that it vaguely reminds you of the original mystical ninja game on the snes (which technically had an overhead view and is still considered as one of the best games of all time).
I agree,but it's too bad goemon is'nt really popular here in the U.S anymore,because these days gaming companies are focusing on they're other franchises these days,but Yes,I would love to see a new Goemon game here in america by Konami,but however,these days,the Izuna franchise from Ninja studio/Atlus is the new popular japanese fad thats getting the attention these days which they just recently released Izuna 2.
Lets just w8 on the gaovernment to bring this game...its going to be a long time cause the only goemon games ive seen was for n64 and that was a long time and why would they bring it here cause ppl would think wtf Goemon and shi* like that... but i still remember EBISUMARU ROXS
Is this game coming to America at all..? :( I hate how the best games never come here Dx *has been a Goemon game fan since she was probably 8 or 9, had both Mystical Ninja and Great Adventure*
I really liked all the Goemon games I played (the two on N64) and I got really excited for this one when it was announced. Why have you forsaken us, Konami?
This goemon version is much better. Id prefer this one over the so called new ps2 version. in fact, this one is slightly better with all the new features. Although i like the n64 ones better but htis one has potential.
It came out already, but it was only released in Japan. So far as I know, Konami has no intention of releasing it elsewhere. Surely it'd already have arrived if such were the case =/
Can you import Goemon DS somewhere with english text? I really would like to undertstand what Im playing. :(
Grrr, it was on top of my most wanted games list, and now its not going to be released here in Europe, and I´m not gonna understand anything im playing..
REALLY!!! sasuke samurai was like one of my favorite cards and i thought that he was like from mystical ninja. of course i didnt think he really was...
has you can see, on my profile name, i'm a big goe..fan, for a long time goemon DS was close to be rales,, here in US, core's it was going to be call, mystical ninja DS, and it never , well you no ?
Ebay! besides, you can just button mash through conversations until you trigger events. Hasn't stopped me from getting it, the art style alone is worth it!
Konami tried giving westerners a taste of the Goemon series a few times in the past but no one bought outside of Japan bought those games. I really doubr Konami will give worldwide releases of Goemon games again.
Wow, what a douchebag. Anyways, graphics look great, music is so wonderful and familiar. Must... import... So many great DS imports, geez. :/ Jump Superstars, Ouendan, now this.
It also has one huge problem in that,they don`t show the fact its dual screen,so the dialogue screen is lost when chatting to the guy in the village..urh this game needs to be released in english it ain`t fair.
Too bAd Goemon is'nt Well Popular here in the U.S, which is a darn shame, and chances are that this game will never make it to the states,Since Goemon is'nt Popular here anymore.
This is a FANTASTIC title and my favourite DS game...but this video isn't going to convince anyone to buy it. If anything it will turn them away, since the person playing the game has no ****ing clue on what the hell they are doing.
