Earlier this year, Namco Bandai shipped the acclaimed adventure game Fragile: Farewell Ruins of the Moon in Japan and American players eagerly awaited news of a local release, which sadly never came. When contacted, Namco Bandai representatives explained that the company had no plans to publish the title, set to the backdrop of an atmospheric post-apocalyptic world, in the U.S.
Thankfully, though, Xseed Games does. IGN is able to exclusively reveal to its readers today that Xseed has secured the North American publishing rights to Fragile: Farewell Ruins of the Moon. The tri-Crescendo-developed project will ship stateside for Wii this winter, according to the company. "We are ecstatic to be able to finally confirm Fragile: Farewell Ruins of the Moon for gamers in North America," said Jun Iwasaki, president of Xseed Games. "We have received countless requests from eager gamers pleading with us to publish this title, and it gives us great joy to be able to give the public what they want while being able to work on such a great game."

Someone translated and subbed the Japanese launch trailer a while back, just in case anyone wants an idea of what this game is about:

Hope the localization team doesn't remove the Japanese voicework or at least leaves it as an option.
Edit: The IGN article has a quote about the English voiceovers and a possibility that the original voices will be left intact.

If the dubbing/translation is good, I'll get it. If they don't have a good dub, hopefully they have the Japanese audio track.

I never paid much attention to this game because I figured we would never get it. Looks awesome.

Damn. Freaking. Sweet.
No amount of "Wii sucks" ranting from the BF will stop me from getting one now, this is the clincher.
Now, first things first- I need a new big-ass surge protector...

Anyone know how well reviewed it was in Japan? Last time I heard about this game was when it was first revealed.

Import impressions on GameFAQs weren't all that positive.

So does anyone else go to the Japanese site and leave it open so you can listen to the music? 8-)

If I recall what I heard, this sort of title is more familiar to Japanese audiences, as it attempts to create an experience more than an absolute storyline. It seems a moving journey, but actual gameplay is limited.

Obviously, I was hiding in a cave. I was planning to jump Strell take away his lobsters. 8-)

Just remembered this game so lets give it a bump. IGN says release is US: February 16, 2010.
Looking forward to it.
It has a "new" name too now: Fragile Dreams: Farewell Ruins of The Moon
So now we're dreaming.
