Shiren the Wanderer May Be Wandering To The PSP
I have one serious RPG crush this console generation and this has my steady, Square Enix slightly jealous. Square originally stole my heart with Final Fantasy but while producing a lackluster showing over the past few years (do we really need another re-skinned tower defense game?!) Atlus has been quietly sneaking over to my apartment late nights and touching that special place that only deeply involved JRPGS can ever reach. My appetite has been most recently satiated with Demon's Souls and now Atlus lends its hand with the localization for the new Shiren the Wanderer. This rougelike was originally slated for a Wii only release in Japan and while nothing is official it appears Japanese retailer Rakuten has this game in their catalogue for sometime in January. This time around you will have two AI controlled characters and rebalanced gameplay. So get out those tenacious RPG caps and keep your fingers crossed we actually see this psp version stateside.

So, are you saying that this game is entirely reddish in color, or that I should be applying it to my cheeks using my PSP? ;)
This looks like a remake of the first one. I can't really get excited about that since we already have a very fine port on the DS in English. If this were the 2nd one, I'd be much more enthusiastic. Either way, I doubt we'll be seeing this stateside. Oh, and the Wii version, that's the third one. You should really mention which one it is in your post.
