Squeenix (https://member.eu.square-enix.com/en/blogs/theatrhythm-final-fantasy-coming-europe) announce European release date for THEATRHYTHM FINAL FANTASY on 3DS in all Pal Territories. Coming in Summer 2012.

I'd be excited if I had a 3DS!

Shluppers: This is why the special forum is dumb (http://home.eyesonff.com/initiative/141981-theatrhythm-final-fantasy-come-us-europe.html). :p

It does look cute, though I can't get too worked up about a rhythm game.

I don't disagree with you. Except about the rhythm game part; it looks cute and has gotten good reviews. I would feel like a jackass buying a 3DS when I already have a DS Lite though.

Didn't want to make a new thread here since I posted elsewhere about it, but wanted to at least bump this up with new information!

Release date is July 3rd in North America.

That's like saying you'd feel like a jackass buying a PS3 because you already have a PS2.

Do you like Elite Beat Agents?

Do you like Final Fantasy songs?

You might like theatrhythm

I was kinda disappointed the gameplay was wholly touchscreen based (at least in the demo I played), and it seemed that what you did compared to what the prompts were was simplified-- there are four characters on screen and I guess you can equip them with stuff, but you tap the same way for all characters. I was tapping higher and lower on teh touchscreen based on where the prompts came up, but it didn't seem to actually affect anything if you were in what I figured would be a wrong spot.

it seems like a bad mixture though, mixing rpg style fighting with rhythm games; it'd have been more fun if the characters were rocking out or moving around, but I guess that takes more money to animate.
