Title: [TGS 08] Nobi Nobi Boy *Now with Video*

Nobi Nobi Boy will be at TGS this year in video form only, but hey, it's something.

QUOTE
Tokyo Game Show kicks off next week and Katamari Damacy creator Keita Takahahi's next effort, Nobi Nobi Boy, will be there. Unfortunately, the PlayStation 3 exclusive is slated to be shown in video form only. Hopefully that video will be more informative about the gameplay mechanics of Nobi Nobi Boy than Takahashi's previous demonstrations of the game. Namco Bandai lists the release date as still "undecided."


on a side note, when IS tgs? i keep hearing everyone talking about it but i can't find the dates for it.

hm, yes... the demonstration last year was like.... moves, hahahaha, jumps, hahaha, eats sheep, hahahaha. it was very confusing.

and it's oct 9-12.

vix - October 1, 2008 02:31 AM (GMT)
yeah, i just found out when it is. cause i though it was this weekend or something with all the hype and there was no gs page yet.

i wonder if this new demo will show a plot, lol

I think that everything Namco makes for now on will become very sucessfull, have squeals, and fans who make online versions of them. Nobi Nobi is obviously about adventuring. There should be also ceratain puzzles you can solve by using both ends. And their heads look similar to the prince's and his cousin's faces. (well, not their noses)

s0njas0n - October 9, 2008 03:46 PM (GMT)
yeah, i dunno. it's not the same as it was before. it was 3d... of course maybe this is some type of bonus level, like the 2d katamari levels... or the redesigned the whole thing, who knows.

vix - October 9, 2008 04:58 PM (GMT)
eww, yeah, not a fan of this. i liked the 3d bit better.

the 3d version looked more intriguing than this. i'm just even more confused by this.

marbig - October 9, 2008 11:26 PM (GMT)
I think it looks bad. I'm not excited anymore.

vix - October 10, 2008 02:14 AM (GMT)

steve dont like katamaris.

s0njas0n - October 10, 2008 01:51 PM (GMT)
so i'm curious now if the whole 3d aspect of the game has been ditched with the new screenshots and video. it's weird that they would start to develop this 3d game and then totally abandon it. maybe not.

discostu - October 10, 2008 02:14 PM (GMT)
its a psn download game methinks which is why its a little basic

s0njas0n - October 10, 2008 02:50 PM (GMT)
but even ratchet and clank: quest for booty was a fully rendered 3D game and it was a psn title. i mean, i wasn't seriously hyped about this game in the first place, just intrigued by its weirdness... as simple as the original graphics seemed from the footage last year, it couldn't have been more complex graphically than r&c.

vix - October 10, 2008 04:15 PM (GMT)
i'm curious to see why the switch.

reecer6 - October 10, 2008 08:44 PM (GMT)
In the music, I can almost hear the lyrics "Nobi Nobi Boy". lol.
