The big news you've probably already heard (thanks to the success of Elite Beat Agents) is that Inis is developing the even more colorfully named Moero! Nekketsu Rhythm Damashii Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan 2 (something like "Burn! Hot Rhythm Soul Go Fight Cheersquad 2," says the internet) for release to the Japanese market this year. Some specific news was announced this week at the Game Developers Conference, where Keiichi Yano of Inis had a session about the development of Ouendan and the localization of EBA:
Keiichi Yano mentioned that Nintendo will reveal more details on the sequel, later this week, but he gave us a glimpse of the new game and characters on the overhead projector. He also revealed that the original cast of Ouendan characters will return with a slight, ever so subtle edgier art style.
twilightx over at nintendo_ds also shared this magazine scan of some first screenshots of the new game. (Meanwhile there are also some first screens of Super Paper Mario—another title I anxiously await—as well as video from GDC on Gamevideos.com.)
