Earthbound-inspired action adventure Reverie announced for PS4, out 2018

The biggest news here is Vita and you buried the lede! EDIT: I didn't realize it had already been announced. Ignore me.
This looks very cool, hope there's a good story to tie it together. But I admit that a "Zeldalike" Earthbound has been high on my fantasy list for many years. I will be forgiving.

I've never played Earthbound, but honestly this looks good.
I do have a SNES Classic though so I can now play it haha.

Instantly bought.
Now, someone explain to me why we don't see more indie games doing games like this/Zelda/Pokemon, etc.

Pretty much this, hope it has the same sense of humor too.
Will get it on Vita probably.

The artstyle is very charming.
Kind of giving up playing games on vita if there is a ps4 option, as sad as that sounds.

This looks really interesting. When I first saw stuff from it, I was concerned it was a bit too on the nose with its inspiration, it almost looked like a really well-made tribute or fan game. But the more I've seen of it, the more it does seem to have something of its own identity, so I think I'll be checking this out.
Dang, got super excited, and thought it would be closer to an RPG, but at this point, this is fine too.
The art style is closer than Mother 3 than Earthbound I would say. Not sure if I dig the gameplay though. I'm one of those sucker who doesn't really get into light simple combat with puzzle solving gameplay akin to Zelda series.
Getting some great Minish Cap vibes from that trailer. Something I loved from Earthbound that's missing in most of the games it inspired is the setting. I wish there were more games set in amusing pastiches of the USA. I hope that's present in this game!
Folks that like the look of this should also check out Stories of Bethem: Full Moon. It's a similar oldschool-style action/RPG that I really, really enjoyed. It's only Xbox One and Steam and super cheap. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/store/p/stories-of-bethem-full-moon/br3bp6f8h2lm
