Fire Emblem Goddess of Dawn
The SRPG (strategy role playing game) Fire Emblem series have always enthralled me. The gameplay and story lines are always been executed extremely well. Still, this is a Nintendo developed title and despite Fire Emblem's occasional tip-toe into adult oriented themes, they've have always remained age friendly or at least until now.
Fire Emblem Goddess of Dawn for the Wii looks to change all that with the opening intro suggesting rape and depicting throat violence. I hope this is a sign that Nintendo is exploring ways to visually "age-up" some of their franchises. Aside from that, Fire Emblem uses a beautiful 3D cell shaded look. The screenshot above is an example of how they've blended anime cell shading within the word of 3D. I can't wait to see more. For now, I'll have to live with the game's trailer and opening intro until its release stateside.
more in-game screenshots after the jump

Those screenshots are in-game? They look gorgeous. I've never played Fire Emblem, I don't even own a Wii. It might be a good idea to pick up the Cube version just to see what the series is about.

actually, "in-game screenshots" would imply the use of the game realtime rendering engine.
those screenshot are of a CG cutscene, and of course, not rendered real-time, thus not in-game.
technicalities, i know.
