Bandai Namco new countdown
- Thread starter Regret Upon Approval
- Start date
Among Japanese third party publishers, Bamco is probably no.2 for me in terms of being relatively optimistic that it may not necessarily be a mobile game.
In contrast to others, Namco isn't so hot on Mobile/iOS. Their latest big stuff were always on Vita, so I'd put my money on Vita again. Maybe Vita/PS4.

finally.
Maybe this is the secret project Cyberconnect 2 was teasing last month? I wish.

Regardless of what it is, still interested in seeing how a F2P wiiu game will work out for Namco.

All I know is that it's something that's probably not coming to the west thanks to their "we'd rather make no money from the west" mindset.

Tales of SMT!! My dream has come true!!
This pretty much, this isn't localization new for the Digimon game.
Honestly I am starting to think that Namco isn't going to localize it at all.
I forgot that game existed and I will continue to forget it.

It's counting down to the moment when they'll entirely drop console development to focus on mobile.
(Sorry.)
(Sorry.)
Why would they have a countdown up for a game that's already out?

Cmon guys, we all know it's just Frame City Killer being brought back from the dead.
If you set clock for post-April 13
Edit: Beaten
Why Do I recognize those chains? Uh... racking my brain here, brb.
Woops I saw the image and thought it was a countdown for a translation of something.
My excitement went down now.
Kadokawa is involved because they own Famitsu. If it was a new From game, Bandai Namco would only be involved if it was a new ACE or a new Gundam. But in that case, why host the teaser on Famitsu's website?

How long has it been since we saw that PS4 teaser? Seriously.

The only recent thing I've seen on the Gundam front is a commitment to PS4 and Vita support.

Almost 9 years since the last numbered entry. It's about time!
What if it's a countdown for a PS4/PS3 version of the game, plus the announcement that all 3 versions will arrive to the West later this year.
It'd make sense to port it to more succesful platforms before localizing it. A better resolution + some extra AA should be good enough considering how well the game already looks on Vita.
Ignoring the immediacy and the fact that Bandai Namco JP usually doesn't announce ports first, this makes little sense to announce on a Famitsu site. Bandai Namco owns Digimon outright and reveals for that series are usually reserved for Shueisha's Jump magazines.
Not for a Digimon game, no. Wasting money and resources to port it to other platforms for a series they think it's pretty much dead in the west doesn't sound like something they'd do. They'll probably be okay with the vita sales from the west+asia to justify the cost of the localization and more, as SAO proved. If it happens.

It seems there's been a Namco Bandai press conference in Italy, during the "Level Up" event in Milan, and they have shown their upcoming games. Among them, two unannounced titles
Project X Zone 2: Brave New World (3DS)
Saints Seya Soldiers' Soul (PS4/PS3/PC)

This is the official source, and the article is still up. Just, it has been heavily edited compared to what was first published (and saved in the image in the Facebook link).

I guess PXZ did well enough to warrant a sequel
