Get ready to be happy fans. There is a new Suikoden game that is NOT a remake and will continue the story on the DS.

So is this officially Suikoden VI?

I'm sure I'll be getting this, but I really wish that they would stop spinning console rpgs off onto handhelds. Remakes are one thing, but I'd love to be able to play them full screen first. :)

That said, I'm not really complaining, cause, hey, new Suikoden game!:D

*treasures hers* Neener neener Cyrus XD You can't touch my little red system of wonder!

So, this is awesome! But I agree with Matron.

I too would rather have a console version, but Suiko is Suiko, so I'm not complaining.

Found some screens for all you fine Suikoden fans. I haven't played one since III (which was disappointing to me) but I'm excited to get a chance to get back into the series with this particular game.

I don't know why they're going with 3D graphics. Seriously, what's the point?

What's wrong with 3D on pre-rendered backgrounds? FFVII did it, and that turned out fine.

The DS? Seriously? Out of all systems they could have chosen...

I have been such a huge fan of the series but am sorely disappointed by the move to DS. I would have been happy with a Wii version if anything.

I'm sure it was a financial choice... but taking it to the DS is a huge step backwards.

Well in FFVII's case it had the storage space to hold many good looking images to serve as backgrounds, and had the added oomph of CGI to allow them to move as needed. My concern isn't really with backgrounds, though, so much as that I just feel they'd do well to follow the DS's stronger point for the graphics. I think the 3D might have been chosen for the combat system, though.

And to be perfectly honest the main reason is that I just want to see another 2D Suikoden. :P
