The countdown is on: 48 hours until Nippon Ichi's classic "Musical Adventure" hits the Nintendo DS in North America.

This port contains significant differences from the PlayStation release, which help to streamline the combat system and reduce load times to nothing.

Whether you played this game before or not, it's worth your while to check out the DS version. It is more than a mere port, and if you like the cutesy anime-style RPGs, you are sure to like this game.
