Q2 is the new Q1 is the new Q4Summer of games. Jeez. Publishers are finally realizing that nothing good ever comes out during the summer and are capitalizing on it. About time.
Am I in the minority for thinking this game looks like complete garbage?
Sorry, it had to be done.
nah. it's garbage according to people who have played it.
Some links to back this up please?

Holly balls.
Nintendo have turned into the Simpsons devil. "Oh you like Nintendo 3DS games eh? .. HAVE ALL THE NINTENDO 3DS GAMES IN THE WORLD !! THIS SUMMER !!"
I think you should redefine your definition of "garbage."
It's tough having diverse interests in The Year of 3DS™
I'm not all that excited since I heard this game isn't all that great. It is just a lot of fan service.
Turn in your hat Zeer0id, KojiKnight had to correct you. For shame.
"3DS HAS NO GAMES"

Hopefully the Wii U sees this windfall sometime in the next 1.5 years.

Excellent news. By the way, I need an image collaborator for the OP if anyone's interested.
What exactly does this involve?
Game falls apart in the 2nd half, is relatively fun up till then (I like it better than nxc). Don't expect depth if you're looking for a an actual strategic gameplay experience. The game's shining feature are its character interactions/conversations. I wouldn't recommend it at full price though.
Someone to make nice banners.

Well to put it bluntly, it's one of the game's only redeeming features. The story and gameplay will become a chore.Sounds like its worth the full price. :O
Not happening. Nintendo handhelds are KING of third-party support, many games and exclusives.Hopefully the Wii U sees this windfall sometime in the next 1.5 years.

I'll just cross post from the announcement topicGameplay is too simple?
By about a little over halfway through the game you'll have unlocked every character as well as all of their attacks, so the feeling of character growth is completely gone and every stage is just a grind to get to the next one. Characters will almost be indistinguishable from each other at this point since there's no unique gameplay mechanics/classes and you'll be whipping out the same combo for every character for every battle. Later on stages can take a good 1-2 hours to complete (not because of difficulty, but bad level design with hordes of high-HP enemies getting thrown at you) yet the stages themselves are pretty barren with with no meaningful terrain mechanics other than some walls and obstacles. They might as well be flat chessboards and the game wouldn't change.
It's generally agreed that the game falls apart after about the halfway point. They use the same plot element over and over again to explain why you need to go onto the next stage with the villains doing the same thing over and over as well. The story doesn't make you eager at all to see what will happen next.
The game has already had bomba bin fire sales at Japanese retailers mere months after release and maintains a 3/5 star average on amazon jp. The feeling definitely isn't just from an outspoken minority in this thread or anything.
That said, I'm not trying to convince anyone not to buy the game. Local sales are going to do nothing but help show namco bandai that there's a market for niche games here.
If you love these characters the game may be worth playing. Just don't expect a great, or even good game if you're looking for gameplay.
The Sega portion of the roster is really strange. Who the hell picked these characters?
