Looks nice, I'm worried it won't sell though. It is becoming clear that 3rd parties jumped the bandwagon too late, and now it seems difficult to establish a new franchise on the Wii. I'm crossing my fingers in hope though.

The "difficult" games were still niche (but still sold well). Hopefully this has broader appeal.

The appeal is definitely there, but the tricky part is how to market this.

 

The preview stated the game has no distinguishable "hook", so Capcom's message must be clear when it comes to advertising.  I think the CO-OP should definitely be emphasized (commercials of two people playing together). If those "lost" Spyborgs could maybe become "bots" in a multiplayer mode, you could have an all-out brawler, assuming 4-player could happen as well.

 

The de Blob/Ben 10/Jak & Daxter type crowds should be the focal point of marketing. They don't care if it is the hardcore they have been waiting for.  Just put it out there.......
