Sadness, Bamco.
They could always be saving annoucements for down the line. This just means that they didn't announce or promise anything for now.
The J-Stars reveal makes me think they're being very careful with their Western releases of untested franchises, opting to release their titles in Japan first to test the waters.
Naruto and Dragon Ball, which are Western-focused releases, on the other hand, already get announced with trailers in multiple languages.
Watch them remove my favorite characters lol.
I like Goku's Japanese voice the best lol.

Great news.
So happy that it is coming to Vita as well

Oh god, took me awhile to figure out what you meant & I just remembered the manga's main joke/gag involving Kuroko.
Hmm, wonder if it's due to still being early in development, considering it was just confirmed not too long ago & we JUST got a trailer for it. Really hope it's not a sign that they won't bring it over due to All-Star Battle sales...

Well at least anything already licensed by Viz should most likely be safe from the cuts right?
The question is what is already licensed by Viz.
There may always be weird clausules and additional licensees that get in the way of things...
I would just assume that any series we've seen NB work with in the west recently is safe.
If we do get a cut character, wouldn't that kind of screw up Story Mode & having to rework or remove scenes involving said character?
That's really only Naruto, One Piece, DBZ, and Jojo, off the top of my head. Like I said, Koei Tecmo has been publishing the Fist of the North Star games in the US, so maybe they own the rights and that could be part of the problem. Though I don't know if they were one-time agreements like with Bleach being by Sega, then NIS America.

Just wondering because i have no idea.. are you a journalist or someone working for NB? only reason i ask is because i had no idea where you got your sources from(or someone like Kagari aka insider with knowledge) If you are someone from NB... bring gundam back. back to this game, I hope we can get some of the anime intro/ending(whatever the ani version had in japan) ... maybe just YOU WA SHOCK and PEGASUS FANTASY

Talk about a game I didn't expect to see localized.
I hope you want Dio in.

Woah, this is actually quite the game changer. The mass knockdown invincibility frames were pretty annoying in the first release.
It's good. Just don't go into it expecting it to play like JUS or Gundam Vs. It's a much different beast.
It takes a good deal of getting used to, but once it clicks, it's actually pretty fun and has way more depth to it than it first seems. Legit probably my most played fighting game this year; main thing dragging it back was the fact that it became harder and harder to find non-japanese players, and trust me, you don't wanna deal with the lag in this game.
I can't imagine this being digital only, considering they can promote DBZ, Naruto, & One Piece, the biggest three, and all of which have had physical releases....well, aside from a few OP games like Pirate Warriors 2.
I will be very annoyed if Bo-BoBo is somehow one of the cut characters.

Hey neat. If Gintama's still in and it gets a physical release on Vita (lol) I'll buy it again.

Digimon next plsss
I'm just a journalist! Haha.
But I can say that they're not going to bring Gundam back.
Hell, according to the producer's own words, they're making Rise of Incarnates specifically as a way to deliver Gundam Extreme Vs. gameplay to audiences that "wouldn't care" about a Gundam game.
The game is being made in Japan and will not be released in Japan. That's how damn serious they are about not letting Gundam out of Japan.

Well, thank god I imported the Japanese version if they're cutting characters.
But at the same time. God, I feel obligated to buy this. When I got the game I was 100% convinced it would NEVER release here. And there it is.

I'm talking solely about characters we already know are in the Japanese release.
As for new characters that weren't in the original game, I really want DIO and playable Yoh.

thanks for the info... but i wanted gundam breakers :/ but eh wasnt the last gundam game either a handheld Seed game or that poor excuse of a shitty launch ps3 title that got over here? Maybe gundam will come back one day, otherwise i have to import my games like i did for Gundam Senki(0081)
Why would you sell your PS3 at this rate? Much games, such anime.
And SRW could make it over if they stuck to Original Generation releases. The Z series is probably a big licencing NO, though.

It's like they don't realise how successful Gunpla Build Fighters is.
It seems like any mecha in general is a big no-no for a western release.

Damn sub only? Oh well I'll still buy it regardless though I hope they don't axe off too many characters from the game. Hopefully they add new characters like Capcom did with the western release of tatsunoko vs capcom.

...Are they serious? The Gundam fandom today compared to what it was nearly a decade ago (the last time a relevant Gundam game was released here) aren't even comparable. Bandai's really going to have to let this "you guys hate Gundam" thing go. I'm tired of being cheated out of an opportunity to smack giant robots around, lol.

If Gin doesn't make it then foooook ooooofff.
Regardless, do the right thing, replace the characters you remove. Fucking port over characters from your other anime games, I don't care.
