First the good news, Trusty Bell: Chopin's Dream, is coming to the US (and presumably Europe). Now the other news, it will be called Eternal Sonata in the US. We'd like to chime in and say that Namco is lucky Konami hasn't snagged that one for a future Catlevania release. Finally, there's potentially puzzling news:
"The story of Eternal Sonata begins as a famous composer, on his deathbed, drifts between this life and the next. In his reverie, a happenstance encounter of a young girl who accepts her terrible destiny and a young boy fighting to save her, changes the destiny of the world. Uncover the light that shines in each of us in this enduring tale of good and evil."
Did anybody see that? Look closer. That's right, Chopin's name is nowhere to be found. Could Namco be removing the Chopin influence from the English version, or is it simply left out of the press release? The linked article refers only to a "famous composer." Eternal Sonata's strongest aspect thus far is its intriguing story, and we can only hope that it doesn't get lost in translation.
