NP's The World Ends With You special

This month's issue of Nintendo Power has a feature on The World Ends With You, which includes new information and an interview with the game's director, Tatsuya Kando. Some of the information that surfaced the web is as follows:

· Control partner on upper screen with control pad or buttons (lefty-friendly) - up/down to evade, left/right to attack.
· Card games on the top screen (i.e. Concentration and War) played by selecting the right combos when Neku's partner attacks.
