Does anyone remember Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure? A story about Cornet, a girl who wishes to find a fairytale romance with a prince, via the help of her puppet friends? No?! Well, of course, I’m one of the few people to remember this game…
Anyhow, if you missed it the first time, or wish to play it again for old time’s sake, NIS is remaking Marl Oukoku no Ningyou Hime (Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure) for the Nintendo DS! Character designs are set to be redesigned by Kaoru Maruyama.
Marl Oukoku no Ningyou Hime: Tenshi ga kanaderu Ai no Uta for DS will be available in Japan on August 7th for 4,800 yen
For anyone who does not know, as stated above, it is about Cornet enlisting the aid of puppets in order to find her prince charming. It is a SRPG, much like Disgaea or Final Fantasy Tactics. The game is a “Musical Adventure” which means there is a whole lot of vocal tracks and singing in this title, and, if remade completely, the game will take you a whole 5 hours to finish. Sweet.
My conclusion: It will be so cute it will make you sick. “Cornet is my name and I’m a Puppeteer, too! With my puppet friends there’s nothing that I can’t do.”
