Dragon Ball Heroes 3DS looks like shit, but will probably sell well by virtue of being the only recent Dragon Ball game out for the new movie. : /

They should make something akin to Dragon Ball: Origins. That game was nice.

They made a sequel. It didn't do very well.

Then that same developer made a very good fighting game for DS called Dragon Ball Kai: Ultimate Butouden. It also didn't do very well.

Game Republic made some bombas on PS3/360, and now they no longer exist.

Damn, that's unfortunate.

 

[serplux]

Animal Crossing, Tomodachi Collection, and Fantasy Life will be the new 'Holy Trinity'.

I thought it would Pokemon, Monster Hunter, and Dragon Quest. We could add in a Final Fantasy for good measure.

Seriously, it looks a good deal worse than Dragon Quest IX. Some damn newer textures and AA would do a great deal, Namco.

It's also an Arcade port, so it likely has a built-in audience already, unlike pretty much every other recent DB games.

15 (09) [PSV] Demon Gaze (Kadokawa Games)

Biggest Vita game since Ys in September, but actually more impressive because it's been selling for weeks. Giving me Etrian Odyssey teas.

And checking back, we can say LBX W and AKB bombed reeeeeally hard, and I'm talking about the PSP version of each game. Invisible legs.

 

[Foshy]

Demon Gaze seems to have some decent legs, yeah. Really surprising.

 

[michaelius]

And next week is price drop of PSV so it might even rise.

Can we expect some older PSV games to get boosted into the charts thanks to the price drop? I'm thinking P4G, Project Diva and Gravity Rush mainly.

just curious if anyone know, what sort of price are used vita going for in japan now and is there still loads of them in stores?

I'm all over Macross 30, should have my copy by the weekend.

 

[hongcha]

Demon Gaze seems to have some decent legs, yeah. Really surprising.

Having just completed the game, it doesn't surprise me. It's a really awesome, high quality game. And unlike most Vita games, it's not available on another platform.

That's what makes it even worse. The card based Dragon Ball arcade games have been using the assets from the PS2 games made by Dimps. The 3DS port looks considerably worse than arcade version, with featured anti-aliasing, and ran at a respectable frame rate. The frame rate part is what kills me, as it's a card game, lol.

It's a card game. I wouldn't expect anything better. It will sell mainly to kids that don't give a shit about graphics or framerate, as long as it's funny.

You're supposed to just say how much both will sell together. Are you saying the game will sell 1.075 million units?

Edit: I didn't even correctly notice your SS prediction... At first I thought it was 65k.

I guess the answer doesn't matter. =P
