Apparently we're not the only ones that realize just how difficult – and addicting - Knights in the Nightmare is, as those DS/Wii owners quick enough on the draw have the opportunity to play the ambitious pocket RPG long before release. Atlus USA and Nintendo of America have teamed up to add Knights in the Nightmare to the Nintendo Channel today, so if you own a Wii and a DS, you should dive on in immediately.

Knights in the Nightmare is a unique action-RPG that makes use of some elements from arcade shooters, classic strategy RPG attack systems, thousands of weapon upgrades and combinations, and a beautiful style, mixing some epic music with developer Sting's impressive hand-drawn slant on pocket gaming.

It's a tough game to get into, which is exactly why it's now available for a free taste. The download consists of the game's tutorial, which will last you a good deal of time. Learn the game now, and get ready for its release in just a few short weeks. This ambitious title already ranks among some of the best titles of the year, so get a taste now while you can.

Oh, and download it quick. Knowing Nintendo's random update habits, this thing could be gone at any time.
