Remember in addition to having downloadable only video games,
Nintendo also sells games at retail outlets. That way families
can support the physical copy movement, and their local
economies. It is wise to refrain from purchasing any of these
products until Family Friendly Gaming publishes a review.

Alphadia Genesis Arrives on Wii U
Burlingame, CA. – November 20, in the year of our Lord
2014 -- Natsume Inc., a worldwide developer and
publisher of family-oriented video games, today launches their
first title for the Nintendo Wii U, Alphadia Genesis. The first
game in the classic Alphadia series to hit consoles in North
America, the game is rated E10+ by the ESRB, is available
exclusively on the Wii U eShop, and can be downloaded for just
$14.99.
Alphadia, Year 1092: Fifteen years have passed since the end of
the terrible Energi Wars, where clones were used as weapons. Two
kingdoms, after nearly destroying each other and the natural
resources of Energi, signed an important peace treaty, and have
been co-operative neighbors ever since: Augustine and Archleign,
where the story of Alphadia Genesis begins.
"We are excited to be launching our first Wii U title, and are
especially excited that it's a JRPG,” said Hiro Maekawa,
President and CEO at Natsume. "We hope veteran fans who loved
the classic gameplay style and storytelling of Mystic Chronicles
and End of Serenity as well as new fans will love Alphadia
Genesis!"
Join Fray, Aurra, Enah, Corone, Walter, and Grande as they work
together – somewhat unwillingly – to discover the mystery behind
clones who have begun murdering their masters! It hasn’t been
very long since the end of the war where clones were used and
nearly destroyed the planet – have the kingdoms of Archleign and
Augustine not yet learned the terrible lessons of war? Find out
today by downloading the game from the Wii U eShop!
