A good writer puts in a lot of details in there story. But a great one gets a story from a single detail.

Survival Horror Dating Sim? Wasn't there a joke about that in Super Paper Mario? "Larry Koopa: Zombie Heartbreaker".

Yeah, it was used in that Dating Sim parody with Francis. Personally, I'd play it, along as I, God forbid, don't get railroaded into getting with Wendy O.

I'd hope a game starring Larry wouldn't put you with Wendy O.

If I remember right, it wasn't in the dating sim spoof. It was on one of the lists of products to get, taped to a desk in one of Francis' rooms.

Since it's rated Cero C, it's definitely not supposed to be child-friendly.

So it's not only a new IP by Nintendo, it's possibly also not aimed at children... by Nintendo.  *

...Did I step into some sort of dimensional rift or something? This seems to be coming way out of left field. Definitely want more information.

Subtitle revealed: "Tower of Pandora: Until I Return To Your Side"

- nearing completion - expect details to be released gradually

Source? Go Nintendo.com

Here's hoping they get as much potential out of the higher rating the game has. Mature story and deep characters and all...

We already got Majoras Mask so do we really need a T game? I could frankly care less, I want IP and gameplay <3

A guy called dvorak is tired. Tired of humanity not wanting to change to improve itself. Quite the sad tale.

Giving it a higher rating means they can add some variety to their IP's. Storylines too dark and edgy for other series can be put to use.

I don't know, man, Nintendo's already pretty much the champion of Surprise Creepy, so I'm excited to see what they'd do with a more bluntly T- or M-rated game.

What does Cero C mean? What other games are Cero C?

I have a message from another time...

Guide to CERO's symbols: http://www.ign.com/cero.html

List of examples of games that fit into the various ratings: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_Entertainment_Rating_Organization

Based on the list of games, it seems like CERO C would include: the player gets to use realistic weapons, real-world politics and issues, and small amounts of blood. Maybe, depictions of violence against realistic-looking people.

In general, the CERO ratings appear to be delineated primarily by blood and gore, and graphic sex is usually universally the maximum rating. I remember listening to a podcast by a guy who worked at Konami about how the CERO system worked, and how No More Heroes got screwed over by it.

Hm, so yeah, C's basically T-rated. Hopefully, that means that there will be nothing in it that will be too scary or risqué.

That sounds like about what I want in terms of maturity.

So it's "Tower of Pandora: Until I return to your side"

I'm guessing that there's a love/rescue/find the cure for the horrible curse on your homeland and return to your loved ones plot somewhere in this.

About the risque part... Soul Calibur IV, Silent Hill Shattered Memories, and Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker all got to be CERO C, so that leaves a lot of potential risque content for Pandora's Tower.

EDIT: Under the list of CERO B games, the Tekken and King Of Fighters series are included, so that leaves a lot of room for outfits that characters could be wearing.

Did we all forget of Mad World or something?

I think... I think... The narration says "Die and become beautiful... or live and remain ugly... I wonder which is better?''

Though she doesn't really say better, she says which is happier.
