Capcom can get this game to come out in America...why can't Nintendo get Jump?

Tatsunoko is only a single company and most of their franchises aren't that popular, Shonen is a magazine holding many companies who are very influential world-wide.

They can port it.

They should if they want to sell more than 12,000 copies.

Because 2.5D fighting games are all the rage on the PS3/360. May I bring up Battle Fantasia sales? Seriously if you want to play this buy the Wii.

Is anyone else a little disappointed that Capcom worked so hard to get these licenses that no one knows or cares about? I was hoping this engine would be used for MvC3 or something.

OR MAYBE THAT'S WHAT'S HAPPENING? BELIEVE?

Street Fighter 4 did fairly well, if I recall correctly.

That would be incredible. I imported both of these games and loved them so much, but lag with Japanese players online was a little frustrating, and unlocking the characters without speaking Japanese was difficult.

Street Fighter 4 isn't in the same nichey style as TvC. It seemed as if he was referring that the game was too niche and it would be better off being on the PS3/360 as well when in reality it won't be and if anything it would probably due worse IMO (I can explain).

Yea it is and to those people who want the game on PS3/360, If you really wanted to play the game, then you would just buy a Wii.

Seriously, Wii consoles are inexpensive, have a library of great games, and are readily available.

Hmm.

I'm just going off the top of my head, but Funi owns DBZ, Yu Yu Hakusho, and One Piece, Viz owns Naruto, Bobobo, Deathnote, and pretty much everything else except Yu-Gi-Oh and Shaman King, when you get in to 4Kids territory.

It would still be a mess. Certain licenses are weighed differently when it comes to fees, you'd have to get a really magnanimous agreement from the companies involved for it to be worth it at all. Some companies also hold video game rights to certain licenses, like Atari does (did?) with Dragonball.

But the Wii doesn't have any games though.

In short the Wii's market is probably far more hungry for these types of games as opposed to the PS3/360 due to them not receiving many of them, and being niche it can't really appeal to many people. However being exclusive it will most likely gain that erosion to attract people who would otherwise not buy the game.

Now this may sound insane, but look around niche releases on gaming platforms. They tend to be exclusive to make a stronger name for themselves as it's an easier way to attract people toward their platform. Because if you're hardcore gamer chances are you probably already own the majority of gaming platforms. Again this may sound incredibly stupid but it is a common practice and at times it really does work. Case in point "No More Heroes", Grasshopper went from "that company that makes those weird looking cell-shaded games" to a cult-hit developer with the game selling (or has sold) half a million copies world-wide. This is why Suda didn't make the game Wii and Xbox 360 multiplat (when he obviously wanted to) because it could have cannibalized on the game's sales.

I wish they would at least take time to look into it like Capcom with TvC. I'm pretty sure if they ever bring Jump they would definitely make changes to the game due to licensing issues.

I know man, and that's what GAF gets upset about. There's like a TON of Wii games, but nobody wants to buy a Wii because it has no games.

I think it deserves its own thread.

Anyway, the creator, Ryouta Niizuma, wants to make a sequel, hoping to please more and sell more.

Also note that he mentioned the characters that didn't make it in the final 22 (they were saving for more in the sequel), either out of copyright issues and balance. Although he might consider them for the sequel.

Tatsunoko Side :

- Joe the Condor (Gatchaman)
- Yatterman #2
- Shulato (from Shulato)
- Soul Taker
- Nakahara Komugi
- Daikyojin (mecha of Yattodetaman, another Time Bokan series anime)
- Berg Katse (enemy of Gatchaman)
- Tekkaman Evil
- Braiking Boss (enemy of Casshern)
- JJ (Zillion)

Capcom Side :

- Leon
- Nash (Charlie)
- Date Masamune
- Arthur
- Ibuki
- Vega (M. Bison)
- Lei-Lei/Hsein-Ko
- Zero Gouki (Cyberbots mecha... who acts like Gouki)
- Tiara Hime (look up Gaia Masters, another Japan only, obscure Capcom game)
- Nero
- June
- Rouge
- Tyrant
- Hinata Wakaba

TvC for Wii and MvC3 for 360 and ps3 perhaps.

Really terrible argument. Street Fighter is a cultural icon and this game did its best to tap into the gold mine among 20-30 somethings that that name represents.

There was an interview with the producer late last year, in December if I remember correctly. In that interview, he mentioned that he wants to do a sequel, hoping it'll sell better of course, and gave a list of characters he'd like to include, like Nero, Leon, Charlie, M. Bison, Rouge - and even more Tatsunoko characters I've never heard of.


Edit: Beaten.

If they're going to add anyone from Phoenix Wright, it should be Franziska von Karma :p
