Upcoming RPG for the Nintendo Wii by tri-Crescendo, makers of Trusty Bell (Eternal Sonata in the US). From the wiki page:
Fragile is set in a post-apocalyptic near future world that has lost its light and is covered in a dense fog. Almost all the world's population has vanished, and the cities have been left abandoned. The game places the player in the shoes of Seto, a young boy.
Seto wanders the world, searching for survivors and the answers behind the disappearance of everyone else. Seto also searches for a mysterious girl named "Ren." In his quest he must deal with ghosts and demons that lurk within the ruins of the abandoned cities. Despite this, the producer of the game insists that Fragile is not a survival horror in the same vein as Silent Hill, rather it will focus on "human drama".
This looks like it could be a really interesting game that makes good use of the Wiimote controller (as a flashlight). Cel shaded 3d art continues to improve and there are many moments where it looks straight out of a high quality anime series. I appreciate more thoughtful games like this and hope it finds success when it is released in Japan on January 22, 2009.Tokyo Game Show 2008 Trailer:
