New Devil Summoner Clip Has A Glimpse Of Raidou in SMT: Nocturne

By Spencer . September 19, 2008 . 3:13pm

Famitsu posted a new trailer for Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha vs. King Abaddon which some kind person placed on YouTube for easy embedding. If you played Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha vs. the Soulless Army you should recognize a decent number of characters. Many of Raidou’s friends and demons return in the PlayStation 2 sequel. At the end of the trailer there is a teaser for Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne Maniax Chronicle Edition. Yes, it’s cool to see Raidou summon a demon from a test tube in another game, but does he really have a significant role? Or is Raidou going to have a boring role like Dante in this remix?

 

 

One other Raidou mashup is Raiho, a combination of Raidou and Hee-Ho Jack Frost’s catch phrase. Konamistyle is giving out Raiho plushies as a pre-order bonus in Japan. Here’s a look at what you’re unlikely to get even if Atlus picks this game up as one of their localization projects.

    I MUST GET THAT KONAMISTYLE. Raiho would look so swell next to my Kuma plushie.

    Incredibly stylish. Atlus R&D makes the best games, bar none! This better get a USA release, and given their recent streak, I wouldn’t rule out the plushie.

    Cool. I enjoyed the first Devil Summoner title we got the other year. Lots of stylistic flair. Ho-hum gameplay mechanics, but that’s not what interests me half of the time.

    I wonder if they’ll claim it’s a different Raidou in SMT: Nocturne since he did get lost in time/space in the first game. Who knows; maybe he got lost again and wound up in a destroyed/inverted Japan with tons of uglies running around. He’s probably in heaven… running around and forcing every creature in sight into tubes… awesome.

    Don’t think they’ll bother with continuation problems, with Dante in the first version he was just kind of wandering around .

    From the video they seem to be reusing a lot of the backgrounds from the other Devil summoner game. Hopefully there are a lot of new areas too!
