History
After releasing Disgaea and Puchi Puchi Virus for the Nintendo DS, NIS America announced in the summer of 2008 they would also remake Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure and release a new game, A Witch's Tale, in October of 2008. Nintendo Power described the game as an "action-RPG with a The Nightmare Before Christmas-esque art style" in their August 2008 issue, before they had a chance to play it.
While originally slated for a winter 2008 released, it has been pushed back, now apparently aiming for Halloween 2009, and dropping the action aspect of the RPG.
A Witch's Tale was developed by Hit Maker, known for Blade Dancer: Lineage of Light and Dragoneer's Aria and is their first Nintendo DS game. According to Haru Akenaga, the President of NIS America, A Witch's Tale is targeting a North American audience.

“The greatest honor history can bestow is that of peacemaker.”
—Richard M. Nixon (1913–1995)

Is not redeemed from time, for history is a pattern
Of timeless moments.”
