    Pokemon Conquest for the Nintendo DS launched today in North America, and so far has seen some very favorable reviews. For those that don't know, Pokemon Conquest is a turn based strategy RPG, in the same vein as Fire Emblem or Advance Wars. The big difference with this strategy game, however, is that it has Pokemon. You play the role of a young Warlord, who through the help of fellow warriors and their Pokemon, will try to unite their region and bring peace to the land.




    So far, the game's lowest scores, given by Destructiod and Electronic Gaming Monthly, is 8/10. IGN, NintendoWorldReport, and Nintendo Power have given the game 9/10. So far so good, and with many people calling this the best Pokemon spin-off to date its no wonder the reception is positive. We might even see a sequel if it sells well enough, especially since the people at Techmo Koei, the game's developer, expressed how enjoyable it was to make the game.

    Lets not forget those living in Australia! You'll only have a few more days to wait, with the game launching there on June 21st. Still no word on a European release date yet.

      I went to pick it up today but my indie store usually doesn't get new games until later. I decided to go to gamestop but apparently according to them it comes out on tuesday like everything else. I would be annoyed except at least i get the stupid pre-order bonus now.

      I wonder what special features it will have. If I can create a group of "warlords," I would name it STONECLAN. X3 I want it sooooo bad. I want it for my birthday. X3
