Previously, two Tales games were announced for consoles and apparently that isn’t enough. One slide in Namco Bandai’s 2008 financial presentation reveals another Tales game for the Nintendo DS coming out this year. Don’t get your hopes up for an international release though, the unnamed Tales DS game is only scheduled to come out in Japan and Asia. Maybe (and this is a huge maybe) if Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of a New World and Tales of Vesperia outperform, Tales of Innocence (pictured) will have a chance to be localized.
Also coming to the Nintendo DS is an unnamed Dragonball, which unlike the Tales game, is scheduled to come out in Japan and Europe in 2008. What about North America? Yeah, it will probably come out here too despite the omission on the slide.

More tales on DS… and Innocence is not even coming outside of Japan just yet; so… not sure if I should care.
Namco, maybe your games are great, but your politics sucks.
Hi Siliconera,
Does anyone know of a great help and walkthrough guide for Tales of Innocence? Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,

R and Chris: yeah the DS is not region locked, so you can import for that, but otherwise I think region lock is a bother. personally I don’t see why they don’t get rid of it. (in my logic people would by a game in the language (English/japanese) they want it, and if thats not availeble maybe consider to get a version that is availeble, possibly making sales for that a little higher)
Lobot1: google is your friend in this case.
Hello Siliconera,
Where is this bridge that this walkthrough talks about? Do you need to clear Guild District 1 to advance. I am assuming South is down on the D-Pad and North is up. A flowchart would really help in this walkthrough.
I don’t see any bridges in the city “Regnum Kingdom”, I just see the harbor and the houses/ item shops. Is the “Over World” the big green grassy landmass?
Also, why am I dying so quickly, did I set the game on hard or something?
On the Over World, you can find \Guild District 01/ at the SW of the Regnum
Kingdom. Within, you can train and gather Raw Materials in order to Customize
Weapons at a Weapon Shop. Keep in mind that Guild Districts are randomly
generated dungeons. Both the items and Raw Materials are random as well.
To advance, head to the SE of Regnum Kingdom and get near the bridge. Pick the
second choice(Bond + 9 For Ruca And Iria) and beyond the bridge, it is one huge
area you can explore. To move on, head to the SW toward the town at the beach.
Before doing so, you can check out the \Guild District 02/ which is to the NW.

Why are video game companies so controlling over who gets to play which of their games? If they have no plans of localizing a game they should let other companies bring it over, or at least get rid of ridiculous regional lockouts so people can import.
