DS #5294: Ninokuni: Shikkoku no Madoushi (Japan)

[DryYoshi]

Well tried decrypting the rom for DSTT and i still got error code =4, on both R4 and DSTT there are no cheats enabled so that wouldn't make a difference.

I don't think it will be too long before a patch gets released though, if it's working on emulators then its likely it will be patched at some point.

You can have cheats on from a USRCHEAT.DAT file, but you can also have "Use cheats: On"

I'm planning on getting the PS3 version anyway

I think the PS3 version has a different story than the DS version.
The DS one is called the The Jet-Black Mage while the PS3 one is called The Queen of White Sacred Ash.

[impizkit]

I know that but they both have ; to quote Wikipedia; the same "story axle".

Played for the 1st 30 mins on DStwo. Works great. Need the Book to progress though. I do have to say that this is the most beautiful DS game yet.
I wonder if it will be a year before I can play this in english so I understand what is going on. Also the music is just great.

[x] 459 MB trimmed
[x] beautiful pre rendered backgrounds ala old psx rpgs, gorgeous, will probably be best looking DS game if it comes out here, great art.
[x] full on anime cutscenes
[x] full orchestra music, sounds amazing
[x] played 20 min of walking around/talking before i quit, skipped like 5 full on anime cutscenes, but seemed to work on AKAIO (no japanese knowledge here!)
you had to draw something on the screen for a 2nd time and maybe i was drawing the wrong thing and couldn't go on, so i quit, had no idea what was going on anyways just wanted to look at the graphics. english version please!

The book...

Do you need the physical copy of the book? This game definitely looks promising.

The is 4 GB ?! MY Micro SD is Only 2GB...

Can some one solution this problem?

Simple, it's 4Gb, not 4GB, therefore being 512MB :3

Wow! Thanks for the news xD

I liked the copy protection employed in King's Quest VI. The relevant part of the manual contained notes by a researcher exploring the place and had cultural notes like proverbs and translations recorded in it. Took me forever to pass parts of the game until I realized that the manual wasn't just flavor...

 

[jurai]

would posting scans of the manual go against site rules?

The book...

Well you need the information IN the book at least. Pirates are likely to scan or provide the information in said book sooner or later though. Unless each book is indeed unique along with each copy of the game.

I tried this game out when someone dumped a Level 5 demo cart sent out to previewers. It is truly gorgeous in every aspect of the game. Hopefully the combat ended up being more diverse than the demo though, the demo indicated a very basic turn based game.

And i'm no expert on the subject, but i somewhat doubt providing scans of the book is going to be against the rules. I'm not sure though to be honest, so don't quote me on it. You may just want to ask a higher up like dice or maybe Chanser. We do post scans of magazines all the time here at least, though that's a bit different...

Finally a game which is WORTH PLAYING ! for all I've known in Ghibli Animation Studio, the stories are really magicial. I've seen All of the animation's they've made. But the first two that I've watched were Hotaru no Haka and Tonari no Totoro (Man.. Hotaru no Haka actually made me feel the depression, but it was a truly beautiful story. Not to mention my childhood memories watching Totoro XD) . I really hope Level 5 will really bring this out in English. Wait.. did I say hope?? I mean THEY MUST BRING IT OUT IN ENGLISH !!

 

[Piratekitty]

I predict this will be asked atleast 3 times more before the thread dies down.

I think all the rain makes us psychic.

drawing style is very reminiscent of Miyadzaki

Well gee, I wonder why that could be?

You should change your name to mister "all my posts are sarcasm" =/

It's Miyazaki, not "Miyadzaki"

You watched Totoro too?!

I love watching that when I was a child!

Speaking of that I haven't watched Miyazaki's work recently. I really got to get back into watching those again.
