Level-5 CEO, Akihiro Hino, has appeared on Japanese TV show ‘Top Runner’, showing off some new footage of Ni no Kuni on the PS3. Apparently the game is quite far along in development, and Level-5 is trying to see how many additional features they can fit in that weren’t in the DS game. Speaking of the DS game, it is approaching sales of 500,000 units in Japan which is very good news indeed.
Hino says that with the PS3 version of the game he wants to let players experience the feeling of being in a Studio Ghibli movie. By the looks of things he has succeeded.

Really love the Studio Ghibli movies: the worlds, characters and stories are just brilliant.
This game definitely has the looks of a Studio Ghibli movie, so as long as they manage to nail the feeling (and it sure looks like they are on the right track), then this will be essential.
