Klonoa Remake Coming To America

 
It's not everyday people get a chance to make things right, but Americans are getting one now. The Klonoa: Door to Phantomile remake on the Nintendo Wii will be coming to America. Joystiq is reporting that the remake of the critically lauded PS1 game will arrive under the somewhat simpler moniker "Klonoa," and will utilize the Wii Remote for grabbing and throwing enemies. But for those who are allergic to motion controls of any kind, there's always the Classic Controller and the GameCube controller to help you guide Klonoa. No word yet on when it'll actually be hitting stores, but that doesn't matter right now. Let's just bask in the glow of second chances. (link)
