New Wario Land, Fire Emblem Unveiled in Nintendo's Japanese Summer Software Lineup

May 28, 2008 3:15pm CST tags: Nintendo, Fire Emblem, Wario Land Shake, Fatal Frame IV
Details from several Japanese websites compiled on gaming forum NeoGAF have revealed some of Nintendo's software plans for the upcoming summer release schedule.

On the Wii end of things, a new Wario Land game entitled Wario Land Shake will touch down in Japan on July 24. A week later, the horror-photography hybrid Fatal Frame IV—co-published by Nintendo and developer Tecmo—will see release on Nintendo's console.

Meanwhile, DS owners can look forward to an update of the long running strategy RPG Fire Emblem series, due for release on August 7. A DS version of Nintendo's import-only Rhythm Tengoku—a music-centric minigame compilation from the makers of WarioWare—called Rhythm Tengoku Gold is scheduled for a July 31 release date.

Two other titles, Densetsu no Starfi and Inazuma Eleven, will also hit the DS on July 10 and August 22, respectively.

Nintendo has remained uncharacteristically mum on its upcoming releases, particularly in North America, where virtually nothing of its upcoming titles has been known beyond the release of Wii Fit earlier this month.

Nintendo of America has yet to formally announce any of these titles for North American localization, but will likely speak up before July's E3 expo at the very latest.
