Japanese horror film director Takashi Shimizu is apparently working on a new Wii horror game called The Feel with AQ Interactive. Shimizu is probably most well-known for his Ju-on series of movies ("The Grudge", etc) and will serve as the game's "horror adviser".

The Feel will have players exploring a haunted house armed only with a flashlight controlled by the Wiimote. A bit reminiscent of the unconventional choice in weaponry in Fatal Frame 4. The flashlight's battery will also serve as the player's health meter, but I have no idea how that works.

The Feel is scheduled to hit Japan this summer, and so far there's been no word of an overseas release. I've gotten a bit depressed at the chances of a Japanese Wii horror game getting released outside of Japan thanks to what happened to Fatal Frame 4. Hopefully this doesn't end up having a similar fate.

As long as Nintendo's not the one handling the publishing then I guess there's still a chance that this could get released overseas since they can use the whole "From the director of The Grudge" angle to sell it.

Fatal Frame Wii not coming to US, Europe?
