great thread, but Golden Sun and 999 won't be out until november in NA.
The thread specifies (japan) for both, and that 999 game is not the one you think it is, it's based on a manga that happens to have 999 on it's name too.

October looks like it will be a good month. Never finished the GBA Golden Suns, but I want to play Dark Dawn anyway.

My reaction when I found out they were remaking Lufia:

Kingdom Hearts, Lufia and Final Fantasy are the games I am looking at next month.

Gonna wait till the english Golden Sun comes out in November (unless there is an option to play in english on the japanese version, which is unlikely).

Sexy month.

I can't believe I'm doing this, but it looks like I found a game I'm actually not willing to import or play the ROM for. The month long (or longer, depending on how long it takes for the game to arrive in the mail) wait will be painful. But I must persevere. I've waited seven years, so what's a month? It's not like there aren't four other major RPGs being released that might be able to keep me occupied for a week each.

They did what??.. Philistines!

Lufia is was a good series!

I'm well hyped for the new FF game, trailer looked ace! As did the Golden Sun game! The GBA Golden Suns were the reason I bought an EZ3in1 so yeah, I'm a fan!

Pokemon Ranger.... Meh... Not for me. Maybe the main series, but not this!

Super Scribblenauts... Really? It wants to be super after the last god-awful instalment!

Rock Band 3! Definitely if it's like LEGO: Rock Band!

Star Wars... The 1st game was decent.

Kingdom Hearts... Nope! I will never see the point!

All the rest... Hmmm...

A decent looking list really. I always like these 'games of the month' threads. I like to know stuff without having to look around too much for it!

HOLY SHIT NEW LUFIA WHAT THE CHRIST IT STARS MAXIM AND THE OTHER ORIGINALS BUT HOW AND WHY IS THIS A SIDE STORY BUT NDSFHSFHSGJK

MAKES NO SENSE BECAUSE DEAD BUT AWESOME BECAUSE LOVE LUFIAdmklashdfajghag

SOMEBODY EXPLAIN IT TO ME!

It is just an "alternate world" thing?

EDIT: Guys, Lufia played like an action RPG outside of battle anyways, and going from that to a old-dragon-quest-type battle system was a little annoying, and in this day and age wouldn't fly very well... I'm excited to see what else they came up with.

Super Scribblenauts:I never got into the first one, because I thought the levels weren`t as interesting as they could have been. The mechanics however were very interesting and I definitely liked how those were used in the puzzle-levels. Action-levels not so much...

Final Fantasy: The 4 Heroes of Light: I love the artstyle of this game. Looks like a hybrid of Animal Crossing and the artwork of FFIIIDS. Interesting game.

Rock Band 3: I play LEGA RB every now and then but I prefer Ouendan as my rythm-games on DS. I think I just wait for that Ouendan-MJ-game

Golden Sun: Dark Dawn: Holy Crap. I adore Golden Sun. I think it is one of those games that actually deserve all the hype (maybe even more) since the first two were simply amazing. I also think that the overall structure of the game with the alchemy used in combat and dungeons is one of the best in any traditional JRPG. Can`t wait for the english version!

Lufia: Curse of the Sinsitrals: I like Lufia for SNES but this looks like a massive departure for the series. I don`t know yet...

Shantae's Risky Revenge: I have no DSi

Super Scribblenauts: Because I won't have the cash to get it, I'm forcing myself to think it'll be bad.

Final Fantasy: The 4 Heroes of Light: Pass.

Pokemon Ranger: Guardian Signs: Pokemon Black and White are all I can think about in the realm of Pokemon games.

Rock Band 3: Eh.

Golden Sun: Dark Dawn: DO WANT AND I AM GETTING

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II: I hate Star Wars...

Kingdom Hearts Re:coded: KINGDOOOOM HEAAAAARTS!!

Lufia: Curse of the Sinsitrals: No.

Shantae: Risky's Revenge: DO WANT

Other Games: Meh.

I can't wait for Super Scribblenauts. Rock Band 3, The Sims 3, and Lufia will be nice too. I'm gonna try FFG and Re:Coded. Golden Sun can wait until the English release.

Super Scribblenauts?
If it isnt as hateable as the first one, then GIEF MEH NAO!

Force Unleashed 2?
Played through the first, wasnt that bad, gonna try this one & also buying this for Wii.

Rock Band 3?
Doesnt work for me, only Guitar Hero On Tour from this genre is for me.

Golden Sun?
GIEF NAO. Never played Golden Sun on GBA tho.

Final Fantasy?
Yeah, gonna try that.

Kingdom Hearts?
358/2 Days was awesome, Im still playing it. Gonna play this when it gets english.

Lufia?
Meh.

Pokemon?
Dunno really. Its tempting, so I guess I'll try.

Super Scribblenauts: The original had some pretty neat ideas, it just lacked polish. If the sequel irons out the flaws and blatant exploits such as helicopter+rope then game on.

Final Fantasy: The 4 Heroes of Light: I own a full size replica Lionheart, you really think I wouldn't get excited about a new FF game? GAME ON.

Pokemon Ranger: Guardian Signs: Still working on White, never really got into the Ranger series. But I did sit and watch the Ranger movie (the sea temple one) recently (even though I'm 23) so I might give it a chance to impress me.

Rock Band 3: If it's anything like Lego Rock Band then I'm in. I like music games, provided we get a track list that isn't all chav bullcrap. Will check out the tracks and if it looks fun I'll give it a chance.

Golden Sun: Dark Dawn: To me the GBA games were arguably the finest RPG experience on any portable that generation. I fucking loved them. Anything even close to that is a MUST OWN.

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II: I'll download the DS version for a quick laugh, but I'll buy the PS3 version so my nephew can go bananas like he does with the first one. Somehow throwing people through windows never seems to get old.

Kingdom Hearts Re:coded: Still working on BBS, after that I should finish the DS one, then probably look at this after.

Lufia: Curse of the Sinsitrals: Not overly concerned but I've heard the name before, will check it out of I have time.

Sorry, format shamelessly copy pasta'd from Uncle FEFL. I'm too lazy to type. Besides, telly will be free in a few minutes so I can get back to FF9.
