So, will this one be called THE "DENPA" MEN 3: They Came by Waves from the Beyond?

You know, because the first one was called THE "DENPA" MEN: They Came by Wave and the second was called THE "DENPA" MEN 2: Beyond the Waves.

Seriously, though, it appears that the third "DENPA" MEN title, released in Japan last September, will land on Western shores sometime in the coming months, as it recently received a rating from Australia's Classification Board. (Thanks to Twitterer Lance McGill, aka @infernal_monkey, for pointing out this fact, by the way)



Anyway, here's hoping the game is rated and released in other markets--like, um, North America--sooner rather than later, too.

In the meantime, check out the trailer above to see some of what's new in this iteration. (My favorite addition: the ability to decorate your house à la Animal Crossing: New Leaf.)

    Agreed I need my DenpaMen inbetween game relief. That hammer head shark is hilarious looking. xD

    I hope there's some aspect of designing the town that springs up around those houses, too. The RPG and sim genres need to cross over a smidge more often in my mind!

    Ah, that would be interesting, wouldn't it? Unfortunately, I'm not sure that actually happens in this particular game...

    Ah, yes, I like that aspect, too. It'll be interesting to see how much this one compares to the second, which I didn't like as much as the first :(
