The short version: Nintendo Power's table of contents reveals a game called "Unchained Blades" for 3DS, as a download.

The long version: this is the reveal of something publisher XSEED was cryptically teasing yesterday, with a series of images on Twitter including aTyrannosaurus Rex (https://twitter.com/#!/XSEEDGames/status/183264659963527169), a blade of grass (https://twitter.com/#!/XSEEDGames/status/183298807382028288), and a still from Ghost's famous pottery wheel scene (https://twitter.com/#!/XSEEDGames/status/183327857920061440). And now you're confused.

It's now clear that the clues refer to the dungeon crawler released in Japan asUnchainBlades Rexx (http://www.cs.furyu.jp/ubr/). (get it: "Unchained" Melody plus "blade" of grass plus T. "Rex.") It was a retail game over there, but being in Nintendo Power's "Download" section suggests that XSEED is improving the distribution method along with the name.
