No, this isn't the Dual Moons April Fools joke.


I got this in Nintendo's Monthly Power Surge e-mail.

I don't know anything else about it besides the fact it's going to be released in November 15 in the States. I may post some info when I get the next Nintendo Power, but if anyone else receives it before me, please post anything about it. :O

edit: there's also this that I missed in the newsletter. All it shows is the main character's design.

I'm gonna miss playing as Soma, having the power of Dominance and all. We're back to playing a Belmont, yay!

Hm, I'm not so fond of the art style. I was a pretty dedicated fan of the designs used in Aria of Sorrow, Circle of the Moon and etc; while Dawn of Souls took some getting used to it lent itself well to the DS animation capabilities...but if the NP cover art is an indication of the official art.... :\

I think only the "Dark Arts" picture is official. The cover looks more like NP's; they tend to draw their own when they don't have anything else to use. But yeah, I also prefer Ayami Kojima's art over these. However the designs look just as good as Kojima's.

Also, Kojima didn't draw for Circle of the Moon.

This is not Belmont. Too bad. This Whip-Guy is Jonathan Morris. And this girl is Charlotte Orlean. Charlotte reminds me of Fernandes (Belnades).
Anyway, this game is gonna be great!

I noticed, and this could just be me, but in the second screenshot, Jonathan bears a striking resemblance to Dante from DMC3. Anyways, PoR looks awesome. Can't wait for it!

I know, but all the GBA games as well as SotN and a few others have a similar look to them that I really like, and it's kind of hard to tell from this one image whether or not Portrait of Ruin will be a big deviation from that or not. As long as the NP cover is done by their house artists and not by Konami, that's fine by me. XD
