THIS is how a GBA game should look.
Quick info about it: Namco released some time ago a spin off from Tales of Phantasia named Narikiri Dungeon for GBC. It wasn't too impressive really, and its value relied in the costume system and the relation with the ToP story (added more to Dhaos origin in some way). But now, Namco seem to be focusing in the Tales Saga as high-profile games, with several titles upcoming. One of them is this, a sequel for Narikiri Dungeon.
The "costume" system is kept, basically it's a job system where you gain costumes. If you get a Wizard costume you can make magic, and so on. In the first game you could even cosplay famous Namco characters, like the Valkyrie, Whirlo/Sandra, Momo and Wonder Momo, the entire Tales of Phantasia cast including Dhaos, and even the all-famous Reiko Nagase. I expect some weird costumes in this sequel too.
A big difference with the first one is that it is a high profile game, the graphics are bright and well done, and the atmosphere looks overall interesting. The "guest characters" are from the entire Tales universe it seems, unlike the first ToP related one, not a bad thing at all, since the Tales saga is famous for the HUGE amount of references to other games from the saga and even Namco.
