Gonna sell like Wiis in Japan.

OH SHI-
HOT!

:P

2D Lives!

but it may not come stateside... :(

It is times like these that I bless my GameFly account, though right now they do not have the game listed.

Panty flashes?!?! Where the **** are my panty flashes??!?!?!

Was always curious how this game was.

Never got around to buying it though.

atleast its not Guys who LOOK like girls fighting...

Edit: forgot the Japanese release date was March 3, not the US release date.

@DigitalHero: "Atlus is bringing it out of Japan on March 3, so dust off your PlayStation 2s and Hori arcade sticks."

Did you not read that? ;D

Oh man, I cant wait for some supreme vertical action.

If you know what I mean ;)

@LostToys: Its already out in Japan and has been for a while.

now thats vertical action i can look up to.

DId a zombie girl came out of a suitcase?, thats odd @_@

PANTSU!

Moving on. This looks really bad. and what the hell is "Supreme Vertical Action!" about?

I havent seen a screen scroll up that high since Xmen Vs. Street fighter. Or the "other" similar series by capcom.

I would buy this purely for the comedic value it no doubt has when playing with a few friends.

so fake. they can't be up in the air that long. Gravitational law does not apply here ;3

Damn.

Screw Street Fighter IV...this is where it's at!

Those are some big boobs.

And that's one annoying as sin music.

I had the chance to finally try this game out the other day. It isn't awful but it is hardly worth getting very excited about. The designs just seemed very cookie cutter to me. Wonder if this means Melty Blood: Act Cadenza is next.

Heh, fighting game for pedo's?

Retarded japanese school-girl obsession aside... the gameplay actually looks fun. Homing Combos? Yes.
Dammit. I might actually have to play this. Why can't we get gameplay like this in a game that DOESN'T pander to the "lonely otaku virgin" demographic?

Ahhhh, this just made my day.

@sUKi: Yes. All video games should be completely realistic. I mean, if you can't do this stuff in real life, what's the point? That's why Mario always pissed me off. Everybody knows a fat italian plumber can't fit into a pipe.

Titillation is such a pain the ass. Either show me a boob and shameful tears at the moment of penetration, or gtfo of my face.

Poor kids getting tortured by this kind of crap (see also Marvel universe), and denied real porn.

I mean seriously. The incongruity between the almost plush style portrayal of these 'girls' and their insanely oversexed appearance is the chief cause of suicide and school shootings.

Also... another MvC/GG iteration? Snore

Now... put these sex-kittens in Ehrgeiz, and I'll titillate as hard as I can!

I... I just can't ignore the possible connection between the characters in this game and the recommendation of a "Hori" arcade stick.

Unless I'm pronouncing it wrong.

You know what you're going to get when the TRAILER has pantyshots and partially nude zombies coming out of suitcases (that old chestnut).

I couldnt help but smile at "Supreme vertical action".

It looks fairly decent tho.

meow'

played the japanese version a few months back. it's fun, but i wish companies would bring Melty Blood or Akatsuki Blitzkampf here.

Let's hope this comes to the VC now that the Wii is getting it's own arcade stick peripheral.

I have to say, the gameplay looks really fun. I'm also pretty sure that it can get really deep considering that you can have "121 Fighter Combinations!"

Did one of them have a naruto headband with a paw symbol? WHAT IN DA HEYL.

Whee, catgirls. I do like catgirls. Never sure why.

@ChibiKyKiske: Or Big Bang Beats! Or even Guilty Gear XX Accent Core plus. I want my story mode dammit!
On topic, the game looks a little like a one trick pony. I hope the fighting system is okay, since its only $30 I might pick this up.

@NeoAkira: Doubt it, the PS2 version is almost 2 gigs. Don't see that fitting in the Wii's tiny memory, though a port to Wii on disc wouldn't suprise me at all at this point.

Doh! The Arcana Heart web site indicated a 03/03/08 release date. It's actually 04/08/08... sorry!

@ChibiKyKiske: Agreed I have been playing Melty Blood for the past couple months. It is a pretty good fighter. I personally liked it much more than Arcana Heart.

...what the hell?

Must have...

@TOCATL:
I thought it was some sort of evil puppet.... Still odd, anyways.

Suuupaaaaa pander fiiiiightaaaaaa!

@ BPM5:Protoman`s Trap - Try removing the : from your name. Im just curious to see if thats whats preventing the "reply" button from working when I try to reply to you. I remember someone before saying : causes the system to fuck up in a sense.

Ive tried it with another person up above who also has the : in their name and it seems to be the case.

That's awesome! I'm definitely getting it! Anyone remember a game series called Asuka 120% - Burning Fest? It reminds me of that ... Asuka 120% was a surprisingly good game.

There's no nude zombie in that movie, its a wooden doll, like the kind in Castilvania. The game doesn't look that bad, I may just pick it up if i happen to have any extra scratch at that time.

The Japanese version is on sale at Play-Asia this week

@jayntampa: Ya I remember that game cept I was a bigger fan of ADVANCED.V.G.2 myself.

Damned fine game.

Coming soon in doujinshi form to a Comiket near you!

(Although in all seriousness, it looks like they pretty much pegged the old Capcom 2d look with this one. Should be a lot of fun to watch, at the very least. Now if someone would only try to ape the better Capcom 3d fighters...)

@McWhertor: Both have repeating numbers. Close enough.

um.... import

@Witzbold: Hehe ... I had both, I just thought the fighting system was better in Asuka ... it reminded me a lot of Street Fighter Alpha 2, but I was a fan of both.

Is this game not a bit...old? They play it at SBO and have for a few years... New to the PS2 maybe? Man I wanna play SF3 now. Stupid fighting game tournys...making me want to play...stupid finals, not letting me play.

Ooooooooo...! (said like Merv Griffin)

Melty Blood? Oh, right, Arcana Heart...
