The popular RPGs sequel, which also for Nintendo's DS, is due for release on October 1st, 2009. The original game is still doing very well ineed, holding strong position in the Media Create Top 30, and having over 300,000 copies sold since release.
LS, I had no idea this is an RPG series. I just had Winning Eleven in my head and thought was a usual football game. You have the first if I remember correctly, with the language issues, what is it like? Does it play like a proper football game? Is the RPG element relevant to the game?
"I've never heard of the game. Did the original get released outside of Japan?"
Never, and shockingly so, The game given it's theme has the potentional to sell millions.

The text barrier is easy to overcome, there are now numerous guides online for you to choose from. It's RPG all the way and very cool,. The game is fittingly, "a game of two halves" quite literally, one half has a strong RPG aspect, while the other, which is the actual match itself, is more action orienated, if not entirely action based. It has a great story with charming characters, like the main one, Endou. There is actually a Anime now :D
How does it sell in Japan? I know at least enough to warrant a sequel, but do you have a rough idea? I'm not a fan of soccer, or RPG's in general, but I'd be interested to know how other people like it.

It sells very well, the game stays high in the charts even to this day!. It's been one of the great DS success stories.
