A classic Japanese RPG series is being revived as Enterbrain and Kadokawa Games bring Metal Max 3 to the DS.
This series first began on the Famicom (NES) with 1991's Metal Max. A sequel followed in 1993 on the Super Famicom. An offshoot called Metal Saga was released for the PS2 and then DS, but this is the first numbered entry in the series in 17 years.
Siliconera:
Try not to get your hopes up, since Lunar 2 isn’t likely to make it to PSN in its original form.
Xseed also have no plans to publish Metal Max 3 on the Nintendo DS at the moment either, in case you were wondering.
Lots of DS RPGs shown here, with Pokemans, Emblems, Metal, Codes, History, Robots, Kunis, and Sun to spare.
Yakuza New Chapter, Last Ranker, Metal Max 3, Solarobo, Tales of Phanatsia narikiri Dungeon X, Shining Hearts, God Eater Burst, Patapon 3, Half-Minute Hero 2, Tales of the World Radiant Mythology 3, Fire Emblem Mystery of the Emblem, and Ys vs Sora no Kisei Alternative Saga.
.
Yakuza New Chapter: Black Panther new & returning characters.
Yurika, Chiaki, Sai no Hanaya (Kage in English), Sakaki (last) Tenma (first), Takenaka (last) Shouzou (first), & DJ Rikuoh.
The cut-scenes are in motion comic style a-la Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker, but the character design is more close to that manga style.
In my opinion, more color & details than Peace Walker western style, which both of them looked great.
Hopefully, we didn't have to wait 1 more year for the English release......... : /
If there would be an English release.

EDIT :
Another scans of future new "Tales Of" for PS3.

Looks great.

EDIT :
Aaaaaaaaarrrggghhh, Shining Hearts for PSP is also looked great.
Hope it would also released in English... >_>
PS: The character design reminds me of Taka Tony (T2), a hentai / porn manga artist.

EDIIIIIIIIITTT :
I actually think that Shining Hearts character designer IS Taka Tony (T2).
