Opoona RPG dated for Wii

via Computer and Video Games


Japanese RPG Opoona will be released in Europe on July 25, distributor KOEI has confirmed today.

Branded a 'lifestyle RPG', Opoona has been developed by ArtePiazza, the team behind four Dragon Quest titles.

Breaking with the traditional grind of Japanese RPGs, players must interact with new environments, meet new people and contribute to society through working. So some sort of cross between Final Fantasy and Harvest Moon, then.

Interestingly, the game uses the Wii Nunchuk as the sole method of input, which either means there's an incredible control scheme going on or it's incredibly simplistic. Either way, we're intrigued by the prospect.

Yeah finally it's coming to Europe, it was released one month ago on America.

The sales from this game weren't good (less than 10,000 copies on Japan!), but I still like it.
