    Default Klonoa Door to Phantomile getting an amazing remake on Wii (!!!)

    http://platformerupdate.com/2008/10/...coming-to-wii/

    I just posted on my site with the magazine scan, as I just found out (so excited!) that there is a remake of the PS1 classic Klonoa Door to Phantomile coming to Wii! I am willing to import a Wii to play this...cant wait.

    I guess they ran out of last-gen games to port, so they have to go back to the 32-bit days?

    Yeah, I'm surprised they didn't try to make a new game? Klonoa 3 would have been pretty cool... though I never did get a chance to play the first one! Probably along with many others, since it was such a sleeper. Interesting.

    I hope this comes out here - with the original being overpriced, I look forward to this remake.

    First NiGHTS, The House of the Dead, and Mega Man 9...and now Klonoa? When will Nintendo stop ignoring hard-core gamers?

    Well, Nintendo didn't make any of those games, so...

    Neat! Though, I have a feeling it might end up a sleeper like the others. I always liked Klonoa's design elements and found the games quite enjoyable. Especially 2. It was part of what sold me on the PS2.

    I nearly lost my breath after getting the news today!
    If Namco can make it as amazing as the original, I'm all up for getting it. But, seeing as both Klonoa games were sleepers here in the states, I doubt we'll get this remake.
    They would certianly be crazy not to release it to today's crowd, though.
    In Heaven, everything is fine.

    That's more of a... frowny?

    Anyway, I hope this makes it over here. I've never played either game, but they look excellent. I want to start with the first but it's pretty tough to track down. This would solve that problem!

    Heres an update, thanks to one of my readers he sent me a link to a video which contains a couple of seconds of footage from the fall press conference, its just about halfway through the video:
    http://www.nintendo.co.jp/n10/confer...v/wii.html?n10
    I think I might import a Wii from play asia before december and order this....even if it comes out in the US I will have a JP Wii for all those other games in the video which obviously all won't ever be coming here.

    I think it has a possibility of coming out here. Maybe just in a lower print run...and later.

    Side note: Does anyone know of a listing of the games shown in that video? (in order preferably..) I know theres alot of conference coverage around but I haven't been able to find a list yet.

    That was the same way I felt. I can't wait, I've only played two of the Klonoa games but I LOVED both and hope it gets released in the U.S.
