Famitsu: Patapon 2 marches on Japan PSPs this Winter

The latest issue of Famitsu (via PSPHype) reveals a sequel to Patapon is in the works and coming to Japanese PSPs this Winter (no US or Europe release mentioned). The game is being developed by Pyramid Studios, who made the previous game and LocoRoco. The magazine also has a two-page spread of LocoRoco 2, although gives no release date for any region. No matter how many times you shout pata-pata-pata-pon, the game won't get here any faster.

So are they 'Pata Pata Pata Pon'ing or 'Pon Pon Pata Pon'ing onto PSPs? This is vitally important.

Yes! Patapon is still my favorite release so far this year, I welcome this and the LocoRoco sequel with open arms.

Hope they announce plans of localizing Yuusha no Kuse ni Namaikida and it's sequel, I could easily see those reaching the same audience with SCEA's continued use of Aggressive Pricing and Download-Only models.

Damn... I didn't check to see who published it.

And why would you want Mario Kart?

j.howlett: Jul 9th 2008; 12:07PM

because i love mario kart and my niece moved with the wii. so i'll most likely wait till i can easily get one in black with more storage. plus i need more than double dash

MNC Dover: Jul 9th 2008; 4:28PM

Good point. I'm accustom to the webcomic wrap up bashing of PA and webcomics in general. Hopefully everyone will ignore this post and move on.
