First Impressions

My reaction is

Here’s an awkward crossover. Ever heard of the incredibly old 1983-first-released Noubunaga’s Ambition? Probably not (me neither). Most of us played/watched or poured a sort of interest in Pokémon at some point in our lives. Well, both names will be slapped together in an effort from Tecmo Koei and The Pokémon Company, bidding them a crossover release titled ‘Pokémon + Nobunaga’s Ambition’.

As the trailer reveals, the game is apparently a turn-based tactical RPG. It’s being developed for the Nintendo DS, and due for release spring 2012 in Japan.

Moreover, the game’s official site (via Andriasang) offers a sneak peek at some character combinations, listed below.

Main Character (male) + Eevee
Main Character (female) + Eevee
Nobunaga + Zekrom
Oichi + Jigglypuff (Purin)
Mitsuhide + Articuno (Freezer)
Shingen + Groudon
Kenshin + Mewtwo

About Khalil Daou

Other than his excessively biased enthusiasm toward gaming, and technology behind the whole industry, there's a huge fondness inside that drives him nuts to pick up his keyboard and start writing for the love of it.
