Game Freak’s Harmo Knight For Nintendo 3DS May Come To West

Game Freak wants to bring its rhythm platformer, Harmo Knight, to Europe and North America. When the game launched September 5th in Japan, it became one of the biggest downloadable titles for Nintendo 3DS and is the most expensive Nintendo eShop-exclusive title to date. It is up to Nintendo, of course, to decide whether to localize the game.

“In terms of a North American or European release, it’s definitely something we’d like to do, but we’re working out the details with Nintendo now and seeing what would be the best way to get that to players.”

-Harmo Knight producer Junichi Masuda

    1. There’s a demo in Japan. In fact there’s probably like 30 or more demos on the Japanese eshop, even some games that are out in NA that don’t have demos there. It’s fairly fun, one stage even has a Pokemon black/white battle theme.

      1. Thanks. The player sucks but the gameplay looks pretty epic and solid. I’m just a sucker for rhythm games so I know I’d sure buy this.

    1. Actually yes the top screen can do 3d so is like having 2 screens on the top an one on the botton, the vita only has once screen so is 1/3 of the experience

  1. I agree, I hate it when they don’t Localize A bunch of awesome Japanese games. There are so many good games that are only available in Japan, More people need to open they’re eyes and realize how great a lot of these games are even if they do have a different art style and a whackier sense of humor, we should be Welcoming the Added Variety and Not Shunning them because they’re different. Well, we can only hope……..Leave Luck To Heaven (;

  2. Sorry,but i am not getting this.For the virtual console,we should get final fantasy or something.Or an actual 3ds game on the eshop for it.Frankly,I think that nintendo should put some more free games on the eshop,not that I don’t buy games,it’s just that that will attract more people.

  3. Please Nintendo localize this game it looks awesome and if you show that there are Pokemon cameos in it, it may sell a bit more two for those die hard Pokemon fans.
