    Okay, it isn't quite Skies of Arcadia but it does have a lot of similarities.  Anyways, this game is called Nostalgia.  You get to do some cool stuff like battle in airships custom build it.

    In addition, the game is being developed by Matrix Software.  Here is some history on the company's previously developed games.

    Blast you and your thread title! Why did you have to get my hopes up like that only to smash them like delicate crystal? ::sighs::

    And yea I know about Nostalgia. When I saw the trailer for it at E3 my immediate reaction was "this looks just like Skies of Arcadia." Since I loved Skies back on the DC and GC I have been keeping a close eye on Nostalgia. It could be good, but it could also be bad. Matrix Software has a hit or miss record with me.

    I am quite excited personally for this game.  A skies of arcadia  would rule.

    Jerk. I thought we were getting yet another great RPG on top of all the stuff on the DS already.

    I saw the trailer for this and im hoping its as good as Skies of Arcadia seems to be (since ive never played it). Im actually glad its not Skies of Arcadia DS so I can actually enjoy whatever story is there since I havent played Skies of Arcadia and dont see myself getting a chance to soon.

    They had a nice write-up about this game in the latest issue of Nintendo Power. It  does look promising, but I doubt I'll make the purchase. Too many other games I'd rather purchase at this time.

    Do have a Wii or Gamecube or a Dreamcast?  You can play the game on that.  You'll need to use the Wii's backwards compatibility with gamecube games though.

    Oh ye ive got them but I have no money to buy the game lol the pricing on Ebay seems slightly erratic (£60 or £18?). Im looking around for some more information on the game, all I really know is its a DC RPG involving airships and is highly praised, and if it seems up my street (and after ive finished the 4 jRPG's I have on he go) then ill probably.

    What is it you love about it so much?
