We’ve known Ashley is coming to Wii. We didn’t know how soon.
Nintendo of Japan has posted a limited schedule of 2009 releases dating Trace Memory Wii as a Jan. 22 release in Japan.
Announced during Nintendo’s October press conference, Trace Memory Wii is a sequel to the 2005 Nintendo DS point-and-click adventure game. Short footage of the sequel is available at the 2:34 mark of the buzz-reel trailer Nintendo showed at the conference.
The original Trace Memory put players in the role of Ashley Robbins, a young girl searching for answers about her parents’ disappearance. It achieved cult-classic status for its innovative touch controls and has sold roughly 230,000 copies worldwide according to VGChartz.
Nintendo has not yet dated the Wii sequel outside of Japan.

Wow, her legs are much longer than I remembered them being.

Maybe she grew up. Anyway i’m looking forward to this since I’m a big fan of Trace Memory and Hotel Dusk on the DS.

I never played the Trace Memory game, but I always thought it looked interesting. Is there any replay value?

I found a ton of replay value in it, and I haven’t played many point & click games. Love this one.
Also, Derek, I thought it would be a good idea to mention that this game was called Another Code in Europe, I believe, just in case there’s confusion from fellow Infendoites over there.

the most underrated game for DS……..of all time. this is a sequel right? not a remake i hope.

if you’re a fan of hotel dusk, this is the same developer, cing. you can’t go wrong with both those games. lots of production values.

@AC: I do not believe this is a remake. That doesn’t look like Blood Edward Island, and I don’t see D anywhere. I made a topic about it in the forums.

Also found out something else, the predicted and supposedly announced name of this game, “Gateway of Memory.”
