In all seriousness though, this video really speaks for itself. March 9, 2010 will be the official release date of FINAL FANTASY 13, which the host here calls "possibly the most anticipated gaming experience of all time." Obviously this will sell 11,000,000 copies in the first month...
Oh and yeah, Sayuri Sugawara's Kimi ga Iru Kara will not be in the English game, instead Leona Lewis' My Hands, a song which has been around for a little while, will be the English ending theme.
Enjoy the video(s) that we've dumped here. They'll fill in all the gaps.
Below is the Release Date Trailer:

And lastly, for those of you importing from Japan (which now sounds like the reasonable thing to do, even if you don't understand a word of dialogue...), this is Sayuri Sugawara's Kimi ga Iru Kara:
Good times people, good times.
Ah well, there's still Final Fantasy Versus 13. Hopefully they won't put Katy Perry in that.
This time, however, it comes with English subtitles! Now all of you non-Japanese speakers can get a much better idea of some of the high-tension and drama present in Motomu Toriyama's epic storyline!
Oh, and obviously the English trailer itself... not sounding so great...

The game, Four Warriors of Light: Final Fantasy Gaiden (or Hikari no Yon Senshi: Final Fantasy Gaiden) seems to depict new adventures in the world of the Final Fantasy I characters, which is an interesting leap for a team that have previously dealt with what were essentially direct remakes.
Four Warriors of Light: Final Fantasy Gaiden is out today in Japan for Nintendo DS. No word as of yet on an English localisation.
In this case, the character is a new female by the name of Oerba Yun Fang, who is an employee of the Sanctum, wields a spear and summons Bahamut himself. You can see images of her below, as well as the new Bahamut and Sazh's summon, Burnhild.
