Capcom on more Zack & Wiki, Tatsunoko vs. Capcom
Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 13 Comments
This is the last bit of news that comes from Capcom Product Manager Colin Ferris…
On doing anything again with Zack & Wiki/similar approach to gameplay:
“Well, you know, Zack and Wiki…Another one in a long line of very highly rated Capcom games that unfortunately did not sell very well. We can take a part of the blame on ourselves by having it star a shirtless boy pirate. That is actually a personal favorite of a lot of people in Capcom, so don’t be surprised if you see it again but we have nothing in the works at the moment.”
On bringing Tatsunoko vs. Capcom to U.S. shores…
“We are looking at how to bring Tat vs. Capcom here. As many of you might realize, we really want to bring it out here even though we know it’s going to be a little bit more of a core title…We love our fans and we love releasing titles even if they only sell a little bit. As long as we can make it profitable…And honestly, that’s the bigger deal with Tatsunoko vs. Capcom – the liscencing is sort of out of control on that one.”
About GDC coverage tomorrow

Hey folks,
Just thought I’d give you all a heads up about our GDC coverage for tomorrow. I will not be attending Satoru Iwata’s keynote event, but I promise to keep the site up to date throughout the day with GDC news. Basically, expect a similar format to last year’s E3 and October conference. For those who are unaware, Mr. Iwata’s keynote is expected to start at 9 AM PST and last for about an hour. Again, as soon as any news trickles in, I will post information on the site immediately.
This GDC seems to be a bit more interesting than in years past – Hopefully Nintendo will not disappoint! Is anyone looking forward to anything in particular?

Rumor: Capcom bringing Turnabout Prosecutor to North America
Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, Rumors | 0 comments
A trademark for Turnabout Prosecutor, registered by Capcom, has been discovered and points to a North American release. The official trademark name is Ace Attorney Investigations and has Miles Edgeworth and Detective Gumshoe using their detective skills to explore crime scenes/putting evidence together to solve cases. Turnabout Prosecutor will not ship until May in Japan. Seeing as how it took about ten months for Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney to receive localization, the game would not become available until at the end of the year in North America at the earliest.
