Katamari Damacy’s prototype was initially made on the GameCube

The Katamari Damacy series started way back in 2004. For the first time, the franchise is appearing on a Nintendo console with Katamari Damacy Reroll in December. Interestingly, the IP has some ties to Nintendo platforms in its earliest days.
As revealed in a new book from L. E. Hall due out this week, the prototype for Katamari Damacy was developed on the GameCube. This was due to “Nintendo’s developer-friendly outreach and the released specs for the PS2 indicating it would be a difficult path for even experienced game developers”. Even though creator Keita Takahashi wanted it on the PlayStation 2, Katamari Damacy may not have happened without the GameCube.

[Review] Dragon Ball FighterZ
Posted on 6 years ago by Dennis Gagliardotto(@LyonHart_) in Reviews, Switch | 0 comments
System: Switch
Release date: September 28, 2018
Developer: Arc System Works
Publisher: Bandai Namco
Arc System Works has had a long history of developing and publishing refined fighters going all the way back to the late 90’s with the original Guilty Gear, so it’s undoubtedly a match made in heaven for the studio and Dragon Ball to partner up and deliver one of the best 2D fighters in quite some time, Dragon Ball FighterZ. Having initially been released in January, I’d like to think that Dragon Ball and fighting game fans alike were consumed by it completely. It was difficult to put down as it had an intriguing story, introduced new characters like Android 21, and played and performed like a dream. Fast-forward a few months later, and now Switch owners can experience the fight for themselves with a stellar port that brings with it all the beautiful animations and accessibility with little to no sacrifice other than a missing d-pad.
