News – All 6 Inazuma Eleven DS Games In One 3DS Game (Update #6)

Posted on August 9, 2012 | 6 comments

All 6 Inazuma Eleven DS titles will be released as a single 3DS title, “Inazuma Eleven 1・2・3!! Endou Mamoru Densetsu” for the Inazuma Eleven 5th year anniversary piece.

The 6 DS Games:
-Inazuma Eleven
-Inazuma Eleven 2: Kyoui no Shinryokusha – Fire
-Inazuma Eleven 2: Kyoui no Shinryokusha – Blizzard
-Inazuma Eleven 3: Sekai e no Chousen! – Spark

-Inazuma Eleven 3: Sekai e no Chousen! – The Ogre

Title: イナズマイレブン1・2・3!! 円堂守伝説 (Inazuma Eleven 1・2・3!! Endou Mamoru Densetsu)
Release date: November 29, 2012
Price: 5800 yen
Limited Pressing (Preorder) Bonus: Pair Character Strap
The 3DS release is planned to unlock certain game content in Chrono Stone Neppuu/Raimei games
Buy Inazuma Eleven 1, 2, 3!! Endou Mamoru Densetsu at Play-Asia.com
Also available at CDJapan and YesAsia

More details to come~ So far it seems to be a straight-out port with graphics enhanced for the 3DS (examples here and here), with ways to “enhance” the Chrono Stone games (likely by unlocking certain features).

President Hino has reassured fans on his Twitter that all opening/ending video content from the all the DS games will be available in higher quality in the game, as well as additional content.
T-Pistonz+KMC will be doing an original opening theme for the game, titled, “Yokatta NA” (Thank Goodness). Also of course, the 3-D function will be usable.
The composer for the games, Mitsuda Yasunori, has also mentioned on his Twitter that he is currently working on something related with the game. (I smell full orchestra versions of the background music 😀 But I hope they keep the original game mixes in there too. We’ll see~)

Update #4: The release date has been pushed back 2 weeks, from November 15 to November 29.

Update #5: Date changed from Nov 29 to “this winter”
Reason they gave out officially is that they need more time for quality checking…
Wonder if it’ll end up coming out after chrono stone raimei/neppuu at this rate o.O;

Update #6: Official Site

News – Inazuma Eleven GO 3DS Preorder Bonus Fanbook Contents

Posted on November 24, 2011 | 2 comments

Preorders for Inazuma Eleven GO 3DS Shine and Dark come with a fanbook with the following contents (translated quite literally):
-Witness the taste of that scene once again! Inazuma Cooking!
-Who’s your type? Character diagnosis
-What’s the Avatar residing in you? Avatar diagnosis
-Grand revealing of Tenma and Shindou’s rooms!
-Grand revealing of the sheet music of the piano piece Shindou performs in the Inazuma Eleven GO anime!
-Grand revealing of a legendary illustration!
-The very first scoop on the next Inazuma Eleven GO work!

Some of these lines are just eyebrow-raising, and I suppose that’s the point. XD
Inazuma Cooking refers to the Inazuma Food Cooking in the 24-hour Inazuma TV event!

Other early bonuses include free download contents of playable characters jr. High generation Endou and Gouenji (available only Dec 15-27). These characters not only have God Hand, Fire Tornado and their movie hissatsu; this Endou has an Avatar named Demon God Great. The goalkeeper hissatsu move performed with the Avatar is Great The Hand.

Jr. High Kidou, Kazemaru, Fubuki, Fudou and Kabeyama will be unlockable by passwords given out to attendants to the Inazuma Eleven GO movie in theaters starting December 23 (and with luck, be universal passwords so if someone posts them online everyone can share in the wealth).
