Every day I come to your site to check the latest news on the DS. And every day I wait to find out if Front Mission will be announced, and it finally has!
I'm extremely excited about this, because not only is it a Front Mission title, but it's a port of the original + extras! This is some major fanservice, and a smart play by Square-Enix.

Sandy,
We don't know how to say this, but us making your day makes OUR day. Hopefully you'll still find a reason to keep coming back now that your wishes have come true. :)
Thanks for reading!

Sweeeet! Now let's hope this one makes it out of Japan (since there still hasn't been a stateside release of either FM5 or FM Online...).

There just might be a chance that if THIS port succeeds beyond what's expected, that maybe Front Mission 2, Alternative, and Front Mission 3 (my favorite) will be ported.
Front Mission is one of those games that has so much potential.
