    Vaan - "Interested in playing FFXII International Zodiac Job system?"
    Ashe - "But you have no knowledge of the Japanese language?"
    Fran - "....We could help...."

    The Konami one could be something. Depends on the franchise, and who is involved.

    Same goes for the Koei one, for that matter.

    Everything actually announced is uninteresting to me, though.

    Pfft. Zelda is SO not an RPG.

    Anyway, the list isn't exactly spectacular, but there are still a few games on that list I want. =)

    I was wondering this as well =O I love the Tales series, I really hope that's what it is.

    Edit: Although Legendia is not the one I would choose to spin-off, if that is indeed the case. :O_O:

    Yeah, really. But hey, there's still some story to be told there. Even if it is annoying.

    I do plan on getting some of those games. FE10 and Twilight Princess catch my interest the most, though.

    Also, how is Legend of Zelda an RPG?

    If you want to get into technicalities, any game where you control a character can be called a 'Role Playing Game'.
