Little King's Story is a Life Simulator/Role-Playing Game/Real Time Strategy/God Game coming exclusively to the Nintendo Wii. It's pretty sad that little to no sheep are hyping this game, when it could arguably be the "Zack and Wiki" for 2008

Just look at the development list:

The development staff consists of the following people:
Executive Producer: Yasuhiro Wada (Harvest Moon)
Producer: Yoshirou Kimura (Harvest Moon, Chulip)
Character Design: Hideo Minaba (Final Fantasy XII)
Monster Design: Kazuyuki Kurashima (Freshly-Picked Tingle's Rosy Rupeeland, Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars)
Game Design: Norikazu Yasunaga (World Neverland)
Director: Youichi Kawaguchi (Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King)
Composer: Yoko Shimomura (Kingdom Hearts series, Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars)

Screen:

Little King's Story Screenshot

Kotaku Impressions:
"The first thing that jumped out at me was the beautiful watercolor-pencil s-t-y-l-e of the cute, humorous cutscenes (we published the trailers a while back here) - and how well they transitioned immediately into the brightly-colored game world. I watched as a wacky looking old knight came riding up on a cute, bulbous cow (yes, it was the much-revered Harvest Moon cow) in his search for the true king."

"But, of course, you're the King, so you don't have to do this dirty work yourself. Waving your sceptre at townspeople will recruit them to your aid - you can have a few or up to a throng of fifty following you from place to place, ready to do your bidding. Many townsfolk will have different specialties; for example, a team of carpenters will build something when instructed much faster and more efficiently than a group of regular individuals."

"You can often earn respect by completing these quests; the more renowned you are as a ruler, the more people will obey you. And your obedient subjects are not just faceless nobodies. They've got HP and attack points, can gain in abilities, and will even show their relationship status - given enough time, your townspeople will marry and propagate. If you don't treat them well, though, if you battle too recklessly or work them too hard, they can permanently die, and as their King, you'll have to attend their funerals. That could be very interesting."

Sounds like a more fleshed out version of Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicals: My Life as a King (which isn't a bad thing). I'll have to keep tabs on this one, especially with the talent on hand.

Could be another one of those many sleeper hits for the Wii... but I'm not hyping it because I have no interest in it.

ughhhh why does this game have to look so kiddy. All the characters look like toddlers in a school play of king author. Is it just because it's on the Wii?

Either way, I'm not as excited for this game as I'd liek to be.

I don't really mind it, I actually love the art direction. Look's great. It probably is because it's on the Wii, it looks like that. It suits the Wii audience.

I've got my eye on this and a number of other games coming out for the Wii. I don't think its that people aren't hyping the game, they just aren't doing it to the level that Microsoft and Sony fanboys do it, because nothing beats ranting and raving over a game only to have it come out and be a total let down. Rabid fanboys for the lose.

Sory nut hardcure enuff. Nut nuff blud N Gutz and swearing. Also has prety grafix with louds of color so itz instant fail to zee hurdcure plyers.

I just thought this game was FFCC:MLAK. Nice to see some Strategic games coming for the Wii.

I'm more intrested in Monster Hunter 3 or Tenchu than any other Wii game at the moment.

I really don't care...Nothing that really makes me want to hype it.

If i could get a hands on maybe, but screens and impressions and minor info won't do it.

You're as obsessed over this game then I am with Hellsing Haziq... No offense. :P

Looks like it could be a great game, but it's just not my cup of tea.

lol, not one of the games those people made I liked, but I don't know about Chulip.

However, I'm slightly interested in this game. I might buy it if I can find it real cheap.

...but I have one question. Is it turn-based?

man, some of you people have no heart. some of you rather play the same generic looking first person shooter over and over again. people wonder why the industry is lacking originality, but you dont mind that just as long as you play the same tired genre over and over again.

This game looks like one hell of a fun game. if it has a spash of pikmin, with a spash of the building feature, you find from something like actraiser, then this is a blessing. This game is one reason alone to love the wii.

i mean look at this..

I think theirs a line you have to draw as you get older. This game looks like it's made for toddlers. Its like the difference between My Sims and The Sims. Mario is not kiddy. But playing a baby king whose king of other babies...come on you've gotta have some degree of shame.
