Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey, the next title of the Megaten franchise, is being developed for Nintendo's portable console. It seems that Megami Ibunroku Devil Survivor was a big hit for Atlus, so big that they decided to develop their next game for the same console (leaving us, the fans, with the idea of this being a next gen Megaten game). This time around Kazuma Kaneko will take the lead as the character designer.
We can appreciate some of that awesome art and informatión from these scans:
The official website will be available for the next Friday, so be ready to visit once it's open to the public.
The game will be released on Octuber 8 for the Nintendo DS, being a RPG game with a first person point of view, using the lower screen as a personal map. You will have a good time playing with approximatelly 300 demons, as always, you will be able to contact them and fuse them. What? A little bit of background story? Ok, you're a soldier born in Japan. The game will be carrying a price tag of 6279 yens.
Hopefully, Atlus will give the Stylus a function with this one. Stay tunned for more news.

Emilio, the scans aren't showing, and that's the thing I'm starving to see. 
Still incredibly good news, since Devil Survivor was such an impeccable entry in the series.

Did this like just happen or something? I thought I'd be the first to post some crap...

Meh, the cast looks a lot more international, but sorry, Megaten has been weird enough lately... either the "strange" part is redundant, or it's going to be even weirder (and for the DS no less) 
PS: Too bad it's not weird in that enduring Urusei Yatsura way.

Thanks Emilio.
:D Ah, I can already say I like the art direction, and overall direction of this better than Devil Survivor.

Is there any way to save the images from Gonintendo? I'm very illiterate on any way other than *right click, save image as* and since that's not working...

NEWS:Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey, está destinado al Nintendo DS
Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey, la próxima entrega de la franquicia de Megaten, está siendo producido para la consola portátil de Nintendo. Al parecer el título pasado de Megami Ibunroku DEVIL SURVIVOR fue un gran hit para ATLUS, tan grande que decidieron producir el siguiente juego de la franquicia para la misma consola (dejándonos a nosotros, los fans, sin la idea de que este sería el siguiente juego para consolas de tercera generación). Esta ves, Kazuma Kaneko tomará las riendas como diseñador de personajes.
Podemos apreciar un poco del fabuloso arte e información del juego en estos scans:
La página oficial estará habilitada para el próximo viernes, así que mantente atento para visitarla cuando esta sea abierta al público.
Fecha de Lanzamiento: Octubre 8 de 2009
Plataforma y Tipo: Nintendo DS / RPG
Precio: 6279 Yens
Página Oficial: Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey
Con un aproximado de 300 demonios, este juego parece ser el más grande nido de demonios de todos los anteriores juegos de la franquicia, podremos comunicarnos con estos demonios para así persuadirlos y fusionarlos, el juego es en primera persona con el mapa en la pantalla inferior. ¿Quieres saber un poco de la historia? Bueno, eres un soldado que nació en Japón, espero haya sido suficiente.
Con suerte y ATLUS decide darle alguna función en especial al Stylus de la consola.

Is there any way to save the images from Gonintendo? I'm very illiterate on any way other than *right click, save image as* and since that's not working... There are many ways, and very simple at that. I couldn't give specific instructions not knowing your browser. But it should just involve a few clicks tops.
Emilio posted them anyway.
Ah, to be computer illiterate in our day and age is like being a cripple in the middle ages - screwed. :(
Still, as for the game, looks immensely interesting. I'm very interested to see how it will be story-line wise. As for the monsters, I'm already seeing a few returning sprites, otherwise the backdrops look marvelous. Can't say I'm wild on the outfits for the soldiers, but I like this visually a ton more than Devil Survivor's outfits - they were a tad too j-pop for me.

Yeah! The game looks interesting and amazing. It's good they return to the basics with this one. I was hoping for a PS3 release but now that I think about it, this game looks amazing on the NDS, it's just sweet to have another portable Megaten game. And about the 300 demons, wow that's a big number just there  I guess this will give the game good gameplay or even replay value. Ok, gotta catch 'em all! 
Anyway, I already sent the entry to revision, make sure to add the images, yksehtniycul!

I'm not sure how to add these images to a news post other than the logo. I guess at the least I can use the "read more inside" click feature and load the images up on single article page. Not a bandwidth prob as much as that long list of big graphics would really gum up the front page.

You've been our best editor yet. Have you registered with the WordPress website? Might as well have an Editor account... and if you can produce technically correct posts, I'll even give you publishing privileges (or if not maybe just the ability to edit posts after they're published)

Emilio, I gotta say! I know we suck, but there are probably a lot of graphics in the blog on this site that hotlink to your graphics in your nijiko blog. If you ever expect those graphics to disappear you gotta let us know in advance (PS: Please let us know if you're keeping backups or not)
I'm trying to work on a proper system, but it just keeps being pushed back in terms of priority I'm afraid 
You can't blame me, no one else is offering to help, and I just do the best I can... I'm certainly no Tony, but at least I won't desert the site like Tony
