Card games and fishing and such-type mini-games are all well and good, but I do hope they have some really unique, engrossing mini-games like the cook-offs and plays. Those were fun. |

I hope Rinfa can fight too. It would be cool to see her beating enemies down with her fan (and dice perhaps?). |
I thought that she was holding a hand of playing cards rather than a fan.
Since she's holding three dice in her other hand, I guess that means the oh-so-welcome return of Chinchiron too... |

Yeah she has three dice, right? I guess that means Chinchirin. But I thinik that is a fan in her other hand. That, or strange looking cards. _________________

Bleh, I thought the cookoffs were returning, until I noticed they were from Suikoden II. Konami is being really generous with all the Suikoden V info... will there be a game left to play after all the revelations? |

Wow thank you for these scans!
I will say, I'm really impressed with the artist. Interesting designs and character poses, nice stuff.
I have to agree, Rinfa seems to be holding cards, not a fan. The cards sort of look like talismans too though. Mm, speculation! _________________

As long as Chinchirorin isn't necessary to the plot or recruiting SoDs, I'll be happy. |

Its not impossible that this chinese mini-game girl ( Rinfa? ) may be usable in combat. Looking back at previous Suikodens many people that play Chichinorin with the hero(s) have been fighting characters, Tai Ho of course was a warrior before he was a chichinorin player, however people like Shilo have been usable and generally rely on ranged weapons.
With Suikoden always coming up with new and amusing weapons its entirely possible that Rinfa ( if usable ) will throw the dice as an attack. With maxed swing perhaps she gets to throw all three :p
These scans are great! Cant wait to get home and see that new trailer >.> _________________

Either that, or she'll follow Rina's lead and throw her cards at the enemy...
But I have to doubt that Rinfa will be useable in battle. Shame, her character art is one of my new favourites. |

I would be surprised if she was usable in battle, but I would also be glad. She has wonderful art, as do all of the other characters in Suikoden V, in my opinion. I thought those were just large cards she was holding, but I could be wrong. I noticed she is wearing a Chinese dress, called a Qi Pao. I wonder if other Chinese-looking people will be in the game? Or maybe she is from a different region, other than Falena. _________________ Fate is changable. Every decision you make, and every person you talk to alters Fate in every way. |

Someone is bitter! The game is a lot easier once you know how to cheat.
I personally like every mini-game in the series with the exception of Whack-A-Mole from Suikoden 2 and Mouse Catching from Suikoden 4, but thats because I could never win the highest difficulties of those games :(
I think if Rin Fa could be used in battle they would have showed her by now. There is always the possibility of course. _________________

Yet we complain when recruiting ends up being mere talk-and-get, when we are bitter about actually having to do that extra work to get them.
Hmm, I'm actually not that good at Mouse-Catching, but at least the highest level was not too bad. Unless Suikoden begins to include half-assed attempts at side games (read: FFX's lightning dodge), I look forward to every new addition.
Chinchirorin is pretty much a standard Suikoden fare though. Even better, bring Gaspar back. |

I didn't mind Chinchirorin all that much. It became tedious sometimes, but that's when soft reset could work.
It would seem to be somewhat doubtful that Rinfa would be a fighter. She just doesn't look to be the fighter type... _________________ Avatar courtesy of Midori

Forget killing off Tai Ho, it's Shilo and his loaded dice you should be killing off with extreme prejudice.
