According to Nippon Ichi Software America president Takuro Yamashita, Microsoft “hasn’t been very supportive of Japanese games.” Since this is NIS America, Yamashita is talking about bringing Japanese games to the Xbox One and not selling loads of Xbox Ones in Japan.
Nippon Ichi Sofware has launched a mysterious teaser site for a new game. Not much else to go on, save for the four colors (blue, yellow, green and red) on the site.
Nippon Ichi Software launched a teaser site with a single embedded YouTube clip. The site’s URL says “new_title” and “consumer,” which means it’s for consoles. This looks to be a horror game.
There’s no title for this, but the teaser clip certainly does look rather Minecraft-esque, no?

When I first saw the promotional video for Nippon Ichi software's upcoming game, Hotaru no Nikki, I was instantly captivated by the overall aesthetic. It had the feel of a game like Ico, but with less action. And that's pretty much what I got.
Whenever I'm given an option in a game, be it choosing what my character says or how he/she acts, I always want to make the "best" choice. So when I'm faced with two equally bad options, I lock up – and right off the bat, it looks like Nippon Ichi Software's newest game is going to have me lying awake at nights.
Is Nippon Ichi Software announcing a new game? This teaser site, with a URL that seems to indicate such. Let the speculation begin!
