Graffiti Gets Busy With Success, Success Corp.

By Spencer . November 3, 2009 . 9:40am

Atlus used to be the go to company for Success games like Izuna: The Legend of the Unemployed Ninja and Touch Detective. These days Success isn’t making as many games and Atlus is busy with other titles. That opened a door for Graffiti Entertainment and they struck a deal with them. Graffiti has Windy x Windam, Shepherd’s Crossing DS 2, and Shepherd’s Crossing PSP in their lineup.

Shepherd’s Crossing is a series of farming games, similar to Harvest Moon, but with an emphasis on sheep herding. The PlayStation 2 game, released by Valcon in North America, had a turn based RPG hunting mini-game.

Windy x Windam is an interesting pick up because it have found a way into North America via Europe. German publisher DHM Interactive announced a European version before Graffiti got their hands on it. Other niche titles like Minon: Everyday Hero, Spectral Force Genesis, and Record of Agarest War went through the same process.

Special thanks to Hayden and Chris D. for the tips!

I like Harvest Moon, but Shepard's Crossing sounds a little dull. HM really benefits from having a dating sim as well as farming. I'll keep my eye on it, but I'll remain skeptical.

They're also bringing the Commander game over for the DS -- an Axis and Allies styled game that might interest a similar audience. It's interesting to see a few more of the EU developed games swinging over this way.

I wonder who they use for translation and what kind of work whoever they use does.

I'm surprised Graffiti is still in business. I know they were having a lot of problems finding the money to get out physical copies of Black Sigil.
