EuroGamer - The character Red the Hunter is an anthropomorphised dog in a hat, a kind of cross between The Fantastic Mr Fox and Biggles, who pilots a robot and chews a bone like it's a cheroot. Every ounce of his wiseass charm is needed: after all, he's in a game called Solatorobo. Come again? The spiritual sequel to Tail Concerto, a PlayStation title that sold so poorly it's taken 13 years to get this made, you wonder if the developers at CyberConnect2 are idealists, plain crazy, or just don't like selling games.
The Never Yak recently had the idea that everyone who works with Nintendo Link should write a small piece on their favorite game soundtracks, and this is such a fun and eclectic collection.

"Solatorobo: Red the Hunter is a 2011 game developed by CyberConnect 2 for the Nintendo DS. It’s the spiritual sequel to the PS1 hit, Tail Concerto. A sequel, Little Tail Story, was recently announced for Japanese mobile devices."
It’s been 16 years since the original Tail Concerto came out in Japan. To celebrate, CyberConnect2 is putting together a new art book.
