Perhaps the only thing cuter than a chocobo plush is a chocobo plus with a mage outfit. Just look at him in his little hat! We want this so badly. If only we could justify spending $25 ($30 with shipping) on a plush. But hey, some of you might be more spendthrifty than us, so buy away!
Also, if you like these sorts of things, check out the Santa Claus and white mage chocobos after the break.
Well, maybe not the whole mystery, but we're definitely getting a more clear picture of what this game is all about.
And, as far as mysterious dungeons go, we can think of nothing more than a giant, delicious and cute bird who should traverse them. Especially one that is so multi-talented. And, if you were looking for some new screens for the upcoming Chocobo's Mysterious Dungeon, then JeuxFrance has enough screens that, should you wish, you could print each one out and sew them together, making yourself a nice little blanket.
In the showdown of Wii Mysterious Dungeon games, Chocobo's Dungeon has one major advantage over Shiren the Wanderer 3: the awwwwww factor. The adorableness of the Chocobo protagonist and pretty much everything else in the game may help sway roguelike fans who are on the fence about which title to buy.
As if the game didn't already overload on the cute, these new screenshots reveal a new character named Dungeon Hero X. Where did he come from? Is he friend, enemy, or both? No one knows (although we doubt he's firing the "Mog Beam" at the poor Chocobo out of friendship). It is a mystery of the Mystery Dungeon. A cute mystery.
The 10th Final Fantasy Retrospective takes a look at the fringes of the franchise. This includes the Game Boy installment named Final Fantasy Adventure, which would actually end up being the first game in the Mana series (It was called Seiken Densetsu: Final Fantasy Gaiden in Japan), Final Fantasy: Mystic Quest (the “easy for Westerners” FF), the long list of games starring Chocobo, including Chocobo Racing, the Chocobo’s Mysterious Dungeon series and Final Fantasy Fables: Chocobo Tales and a look outside the realm of video games as Final Fantasy enters the world of animation.
It’s particularly interesting getting a look at the earliest Final Fantasy animation, Final Fantasy: Legend of the Crystals, which I had never heard of. They also look at the short-lived TV anime, Final Fantasy Unlimited, and then dive into the disastrous big-screen debut: Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within. Before tackling Final Fantasy: The Last Order and the franchise’s glorious return to feature film with Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children (the FFVII:AC Limited-Edition set includes Last Order in the extras for those that want to check it out). Give the History of Final Fantasy Retrospective Part 9 a look if you missed it.
The latest trailer for Chocobo's Mysterious Dungeon is mysterious because we can't find out what we like about it most. Maybe it's the soothing music that feels like it should be playing during the credits of Battle Royale or something (don't ask us how we came up with that association, they really don't sound that alike). Maybe it's the young green-haired boy, who reminds us of Cabbage Head (oh, how we miss you Kids in the Hall). Or, maybe it's because that Chocobo is just so darn cute.
