This is the US version of Digimon Savers: Another Mission
And here is the synopsis obtained through IGN
"Players will take control of Marcus Damon, a bright 14-year old who happens to be an undefeated street fighter. Along with the Data Squad, Marcus must investigate the mysterious disappearance of his peers. The Seven Demon Kings turn out to be behind the kidnappings, and players must defeat the Kings and rescue the children."
Thoughts?

That is the dub name for Masaru...Tohma is Thomas, Yoshino is still Yoshino, but will be nicknamed and called Yoshi, Chika is Kristy, Satsuma is Sampson...etc., but this is all DUB information and though it will probably carry into the game, I'm going to stop with it.

Still a stupid name. But I like Yoshi
Yoshi: *Jumps out of a pipe* WAHHHH!!! Hmmm, WAHHHH!! *Jumps back down the pipe*
Shadow: Okay think I lost my train of thought somewhere.

Why did they pick that? Because kids can't say masaru. And that's that.
Also, someone's mom in one of the series was named yoshie.
For one show there was this one site for it that said they renamed a few characters for english dub and it said the reason why was because they thought american kids would be too dumb to remember the names. 0_0 Well since their foreign names of course kids of the show's targeted age groups aren't going to remember.

Yes, Digimon World DS is Savers related, this one Digimon World Data Squad, actually has you controlling Marcus (dub name, for dub product) and team. You are not some random person.
