Tiny Cartridge 3DS

Ni no Kuni: The Another World Moose Monster battle.

While this looks like a traditional Japanese RPG with random battles and turn-based combat, Studio Ghibli’s monster designs are excellent, and there are a few small details worth appreciating, like the characters turning to face you while waiting for your commands.

I also like that you can position your characters in such a way that you can evade some attacks (presumably this mechanic is explored further for other combat uses):

Speaking of Level-5, remember the Premium Platinum cartridge that the company gave out at TGS, which I briefly mentioned last week? The promotional cart has three demos for upcoming games: Ni no Kuni,  Professor Layton and the Devil’s Flute, and Inazuma Eleven 2.

It also includes a secret game that unlocks after you complete all the demos. Rumor has it that the mystery title is London Life, the Professor Layton RPG! Whoa!
