JUMP FESTA 2009 Vol.2

I'm sorry for the late post. I found some video game company's booths in JUMP FESTA.

SQUARE-ENIX

I have seen them before...

TAKARA TOMMY

KONAMI

MONSTER HUNTER's characters(CAPCOM)

This is Nintendo's booth. I was surprised at this. Nindendo don't usually set up a booth at TOKYO GAME SHOW. So, I thought Nintendo set up a booth at any exhibition.

METAL GEAR SOLID TOUCH!

I posted my blog about "A NEXT METAL GEAR IS..." before. I didn't know about next Metal Gear, but I had the answer!

This means that next Metal Gear will be released on iPhone and iPod Touch in the spring of 2009!
We will be able to play it using multi touch interface.

My opinion that next Metal Gear Solid is on Xbox 360 was wrong...
But, I have iPhone. So, I will be able to play it!

I'm looking forward to METAL GEAR SOLID TOUCH!

A new manga, Bokkesan, started from this week.

A new manga started on Weekly Jump from this week.

The title of new manga is "Bokkesan". It is written by Yoshiyuki Nishi.
Yoshiyuki Nishi wrote Muhyo and Roji's Bureau of Supernatural Investigation before.

The story seems about Japanese ghosts which appear at modern city.
I think Yoshiyuki Nishi likes ghost stories like Muhyo and Roji's Bureau of Supernatural Investigation.

I glad to read a new manga, but I'm a little sad.
Because, Hunter x Hunter which I love didn't pulish from last week again...

Square Enix introduced release date of Dragon Quest 9.

Dragon Quest 9 (DQ9) will be released on on March 28th, 2009.

Dragon Quest series is most popular RPG in Japan.
I think it is more popular than Final Fantasy series.
But, It is not popular in foreign countries.
So, Square Enix want to sell a lot of DQ9 all over the world.

And, Dragon Quest 10 is developed on Wii now.
