« PC Doujin Fighter Yatagarasu Coming To Nintendo 3DS »

For the upcoming Penny Arcade Expo Prime at Seattle, Wash., there will be an indie game showcase for multiple platforms. One of the games in the selection is an existing PC indie fighter called Yatagarasu being made for the Nintendo DS.

Referred to as Yata in the list, the fighter is developed by Circle Edge. The small team features artist Styleos, known for his character creations K' and Maxima introduced in The King of Fighters' NESTS saga ('99, 2000, 2001). The team also features designer Umezono who is known for his Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike and recent Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 play. For those unfamiliar, the existing PC version of Yatagarasu features unlockable commentators KSK, Tokido and Kokujin, notable for their 3rd Strike play as well.

Publisher Nicalis, those who brought Cave Story to Nintendo WiiWare, will be bringing this game to the 3DS eShop. If you have plans to attend PAX Prime, make sure to check out this fighter!
