Sting’s newest volume in the Department Heaven series, Knights in the Nightmare, appears like it will have a learning curve as steep as Baldwin Street. (Sorry, Wikipedia-nerd-humor.)

To help prepare gamers in Japan for the challenge, Sting is allowing them to download a “First Step Experience Edition” (FSEE) to their Nintendo DS. The FSEE can be downloaded directly from Minnano Nintendo Channel (Everyone’s Nintendo Channel) or at a participating DS Station.
The FSEE consists of all the tutorials on the game’s battle system as explained by the Maid of Armor. There are seven total tutorials. If gamers download the FSEE at a participating DS Station, they will receive a bonus demo which includes two playable battles as well. |
This is a great way to prepare for the game’s release on the 25th of this month. The downloads will be available until October 7th.
It’s nice to see the Nintendo DS’s features being used to their full extent. Who would have thought you could play demos of Nintendo DS games legally? It’s too bad such options aren’t available to Western gamers. Hopefully they will be at some point.

I might play around with Minnano Nintendo Channel and see if I can figure out how to download the FSEE. If I can, I’ll post a how-to.
I think this is personally my most anticipated DS title of next year. Hopefully Atlus or Sting will be announcing some details of the game’s localization soon. Since the other Dept. Heaven titles were brought over, it seems obvious this one will as well. Judging by these screens though, it looks like there will be a lot of engrish to clean up.

You can download demos from your Wii to your DS in America.
It’s in the Nintendo Channel that was added recently.
Cool, I still wish we had the DS station as well though. Also, if the NA Nintendo Channel is anything like our Wii Shop channel, then I am guessing the content leaves something to be desired.
