Marvelous Entertainment and XSEED Games are hitting the E3 show floor with various offerings this year, most notably for the portable systems such as the PlayStation Portable and Nintendo DS. They also have a few Nintendo Wii titles cooking as well. For those attending, they'll be located in Concourse Hall Paviliion #427.


Of the upcoming line-up, Yasuhiro Wada, the Managing Director of Marvelous Entertainment had this to say: ”We’re very pleased to be able to give the North American audience a sneak peak at our upcoming lineup. This is just the beginning of some of the great games that we’ll be releasing in the US under our Marvelous Entertainment USA banner.”

Jun Iwasaki, the President of XSEED Games, chimed in, saying, “It’s been an amazing year for us, and we feel that we’re well positioned going into E3. We’ve got a fantastic partnership with Marvelous Entertainment which we greatly appreciate, and the overall line up of titles we’re showcasing is strong and diverse, which we’re exceptionally excited about.”

One of their most notable offerings is Valhalla Knights 2 for the PSP, the sequel Valhalla Knights, which promises to give fans of the original game and large, sweeping world, with all of the tools to help create the ultimate RPG party. New jobs, races, classes, weapons and more are packed into the UMD, with 2 player ad hoc network play for plenty of Co-op and Versus modes to keep you salivating until release day. Valhalla Knights 2 will see release in Fall.

Other games in their E3 showcase include Avalon Code for the DS, an RPG created by the development studio responsible for Final Fantasy III and IV for the Nintendo DS; Fune Factory: Frontier for the Wii, the first installment of the Rune Factory franchise for a console system; Little King's Story for the Wii, a game combining life-simulation, real-time strategy, and adventure elements into a cohesive experience; Populous for the DS, the original God simulation; and Korg DS-10, a music creation program that synthesizes a real-life Korg.
