Konami shot off an email of their upcoming fall releases. Looking through the list I noticed a lack of any next-gen stuff, so I'm assuming this is just them pimping their upcoming current gen and portable offerings. Marvel Trading Card Game and Castlevania Portrait of Ruin both look interesting. The rest? Not so much. Full release after the jump. Brian Crecente
