Inazuma Eleven
« on: February 23, 2014, 02:29:12 PM »
You know, "the soccer RPG" by Level-5 that came out in 2008 and, over the years, spawned a manga and anime series.  

It came out on the 3DS eShop about 10 days ago and was a complete surprise to me and pretty much everyone.  Is anyone else out there playing this?  I'm only dabbling with it a little bit since I'm pretty busy with life, but so far I'm enjoying it.  I never expected to see this baby actually drop in North America and am even more surprised that it just appeared with no fanfare.  Kind of a "surprise launch."  EDIT:  In a sea of "me too" JRPGs, this one does offer a unique flavor and I hope/wish more people knew about it. 

I know that the flavor of the month is Bravely Default, but surely someone else out there noticed Inazuma Eleven as well.

I want to play this. Sports RPGs are such a great idea, and I'll never forget the glory of Mario Golf RPG.

Wasn't this released the same day they announced it was coming here?  I wish that happened more often.  I'm interested but when something is digital only I'm hesitant to buy right away.  $20 is a good price point though.

That's exactly what it reminds me of.

^ This. I'm interested and I'm a bigger fan of Level 5 than most, but don't have the time to play it right now with so many other games backlogged. Maybe one day.

I'm waiting for the DS versions of 1-3 to arrive from Zavvi.

I have to go off topic for a moment because I'm currently replaying the Phoenix Wright games and so naturally I read that as "Zvarri"
