Capcom suggests Wii U isn’t next-gen?
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Rumors, Wii U | 0 comments
Capcom published its annual report recently, and it contains a tidbit about Wii U.
A quote from CEO and chairman Kenzo Tsujimoto has been received quite a bit of attention for his remark about the hardware.
I won’t beat around the bush – take a look at the quote below:
“As for the outlook for the next fiscal year, although Nintendo will release the new game console Wii U and the market will be continue to be invigorated by the increase of DLC, time is required before the next generation console cycle begins in earnest.”
It is interesting that Capcom isn’t lumping the Wii U together with other next-gen consoles. Does the company consider it to be a current-gen system?

Capcom confirms Ace Attorney 5 for North America, Europe
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Capcom has confirmed that Ace Attorney 5 is heading to the west. More specifically, it will be released in North America as well as Europe.
A representative told Kotaku:
“Capcom is planning to release Gyakuten Saiban 5 (Ace Attorney 5) in the West. We’ll have more news soon.”
No details were shared beyond this, but perhaps we’ll hear more during the Tokyo Game Show. In any case, it’s great to see a localization confirmation so soon after a new game announcement!

Retro Game Challenge 2 localization still unlikely, including possible eShop release
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, DS, News | 0 comments
XSEED still feels that localizing Retro Game Challenge 2 would be essentially impossible for the company.
Accordin to XSEED’s Jimmy Soga:
“Unfortunately with the number that Retro Game Challenge did, it’s close to impossible to justify bringing the sequel over.”
There are issues that go deeper than just sales of the first game. While that is certainly a factor, XSEED says that the company could face problems with licensing since Namco Bandai owns the IP rights for the game while Fuji TV owns the rights for the TV series.
So even though it would be less of a risk to release Retro Game Challenge 2 on something like the eShop, this probably won’t be happening.
Soga noted:
“It’s true we really don’t have to worry about inventory if we bring it over to 3DS eShop. But it is a bit of a tricky title since the rights belong not only to Namco Bandai for the game, but also to Fuji TV for basing it off the television series.”
