G-Mode, a company known mostly for its stewardship of Data East IP, launched a new Japanese DSiWare RPG called Sepas Channel yesterday. The gameplay concept involves switching between four different amnesiac characters (each on a different “channel”) in order to solve character-specific challenges.

It’s the style that makes this mobile port interesting. Between the modern setting, cutesy character designs, and traditional RPG presentation, it bears a strong resemblance to Earthbound/Mother, though with crisper art. For some reason, it reminds me of a Skip game.

We were going to pass on talking about this game, but then Andriasang posted the above art. Very nice!

Buy: Nintendo DSi XL (Blue, Burgundy, & Bronze), Standard Nintendo DSi (White, Pink, Black, & Blue)
