Last Remnant PS3 is 9th most wanted game in Japan? :shock:

I see they’re looking forward to a healthy number of Western-developed games too. Who says Japanese gamers are insular? :-D

I’m hoping Capcom gets Jonathan Ross to advertise number 8 for its inevitable western release.

Canton – Studio Ghibil? Truth be told, I’m not a hardcore fan of the movies, although I want to be.

I already have Whisper of the Heart on DVD, which I actually love to death, and I know they did Spirited Away (right?).

But I do want to get into the movies more anyways. As for the games, that’s a new one on me, actually.

Sony really do need a DQ game to come to the Ps3 dont they, it would sell millions of consoles over there.

So. “Last” smthng x3, “Lost” smthng x2… where’s “Lust” smthng? ;)

(oh yeah, Final x3, adds to the Last. It seems jap gamers (or gamemakers) have healthy interest for “1 of the kind” things)
