Fatal Frame IV Details

Posted July 24th by jsharp

takes place on Rougetsutou island (ficitional)
setting is a half-western half-Japanese hotel. Hotel was previously a sanatorium.
mystical ceremony was performed every 10 years to worship the moon, but ceremonies stopped for unknown reasons
5 young girls were abducted and taken to the island, but were recovered by a detective. None of the girls remember what happened on the island
story takes place several years later when 3 girls return to the island to try and figure out what happened
3 girls are the main characters
subtitle “Mask of the Lunar Eclipse” refers to a mask used during the ritual that erases memories
concept remains the same as the rest of the series, but gameplay has been ‘dramatically improved’
Move the character with the nunchuk, direct the flashlight with the remote
pointer is not used, just the motions of moving a flashlight
Third Person, behind-the-back camera
walk/run while moving the flashlight around
eastern and western influences were used because they better flow with the type of camera, and make the game flow better
character has been sped up, walks more quickly. This is due to complaints about earlier installments in the series
vibration, Wiimote speaker used to further enhance the experience
Nintendo/Grasshopper/Tecmo collaboration worked well, but it was hard to take into account all the differing opinions.
full of bonus content
dev team says this is easily the best entry in the series
