Now that the Tokyo Game Show has come to a close and you've been assaulted with numerous videos, we can all finally take a deep breath and carefully scrutinize all of this new data following the event. For Nintendo having no presence of their own at the show, the Wii was out in full-force. Before we get into what we liked and didn't like from the show, let's recap on what the show brought us, for both the DS and Wii:
- Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker in-game footage
- A new Bleach trailer
- A pretty sweet Elebits booth
- Kingdom Hearts creators unveil new DS game
- FFXII: Revenant Wings trailer and art
- Heroes of Mana animated trailer
- New Sonic and the Secret Rings trailer
- Best in Show: Elebits
- The TGS booth to rule them all
- New footage for Q? Entertainment's Gunpey
- It's a Wonderful World gets the preview treatment
- Lost in Blue 2 trailer
- More Final Fantasy remakes on the DS?
We can't forget about the DS, either! Even though the DS was literally bombarded with nothing but RPGs, it still had a great show. A slew of new content will keep the already incredible platform from going stale. Those with an insatiable appetite for turn-based battles and potions will get their fix with Square-Enix's incredible lineup of RPG games to come.
