BoF4 - The Sword of Flame & the Magic of Wind (New phone-based BOF IV side story?)

[RUROUNI]

Someone knows something about the Mobile game of bof4? All i have is some screenshots and, what i think, it´s the sub title (Sword of Flame & the Magic of Wind). In he screenshots we can see the main chars of Bof4, Ryu, Nina, Master, Scias, Ursula and Cray. But the scenarios are different from the ps game, so this game have new history... maybe...

(It $eem$ that Capcom don´t forget Bof at all, first this game for mobile, and then the Bof manga in Comic Blade Avarus... someday Bof 6??)

EDIT: i found something about the story. Apparently after the fall of the empire, they continue with their journey. Then says something about capture 5 demons in dungeons... whatever is something new... but it´s only in Japan...

OK, most of us are familiar with the infamous BOF IV "phone fishing game" (that apparently was Japan-only, and apparently is no longer being sold).

Interestingly, it appears that Capcom seems to be liking to do further phone games based on BOF IV, even if the game proper has yet to be re-released. According to several searches I've done online (and yes, if someone doesn't beat me to it, I'll probably be updating the Wikipedia entry on this tomorrow), it appears a full "BOF IV side story" (which is, as best I can determine, meant as an explicit additional chapter to the game) has been released for BREW-capable phones on Japan's DoCoMo network:

Mobile Capcom page (in Japanese)

As best as I can tell from screenshots and multiple translation engines, the phone game is meant as an additional chapter sometime after the main party leave Wyndia, and at least Ryu, Nina, Scias, and (probably) Cray *do* seem to be playable, the play also pretty much looks identical to BOF IV in general.

And this is where we start raising our fists and cursing why the Japanese market gets this.

(Of note, this apparently was formally released in Japan on 1 November 2007--the same date, of note, when Comic Blade Avarus started running its official BOF IV "graphic novelisation". Now I am *INTENSELY* curious as to just what the hell spurred Capcom into sudden interest... )

Yup, that would be the game in question. :3 (And with that, consider this the formal request to mods to merge the threads. :3)

I'd be more than satisfied with a pirated version and an english patch! Maybe they'll even conclude the story and properly kill Yuna...=P

PSP is the bomb so I wouldn't mind if they did. XP

[milliennium_fox]

A DS version would be nice too...=P

[RUROUNI]

A Cell Phone game in a PSP od DS? only with A LOT of new things. It´s a cell phone game, so i think it´s too simple for a console version.
