The newest issue of Japanese Shonen JUMP confirms that Kouichi Ishii's Seiken Densetsu 4 will indeed release as an action adventure on the Playstation 2 and that Nao Ikeda (of Legend of Mana and soon-to-be Children of Mana fame) is in charge of character designs. Thus far characters revealed include "Eldi", the sixteen year-old protagonist and village infant find; "Lichia", a priestess in tune with nature and Eldi's childhood friend; and her pet "Puck", who has joined on separation from his family. Their adventure begins with an invasion from a foreign army that will doubtless spiral into an epic tale when Seiken Densetsu 4 releases sometime next year.

Let's stop kidding ourselves for a minute here. It's not as if Seiken Densetsu IV, with its infinitely small budget in comparison to Nintendo's upcoming heavyhitter Twilight Princess, is even remotely going to produce anything substantially important. It will be a solid adventure game. You will play a hero who is cast out from his homeland and sent to find the Sword of Mana, save the Mana Tree by collecting seeds that come with assorted magical elements, meet strange beings and people, and ride a magical dragon. All to stop the evil empire from upsetting the ecological balance of the world with his evil deeds.

And the whole reason Zelda and Mana remain appealing is because they don't joke around with themselves and try to be something they're not. They're the boy who goes on an adventure and saves the world stories that play great. That's all they'll ever be.

who could have thought that here on square haven would we find the one person to tag zelda as overrated. perhaps the most outlandish, vulgar statement in all gamedom.
