Forums - Gaming - Namco Bandai Holdings Shifts Video Game Development to Japan After Flops

Vueguy on 16 December 2010

i love Bandai Namco, but after they stop releasing the Tales series outside Japan, i stop caring for them.

suit them right for releasing crappy games like Enslaved and Splatterhouse and Clash of The Titans, crappy games will sell crappy.

nobody want them, we want the Tales games instead.

Do they honestly expect mediocore title to sell well in the west??

This isnt Japan guys

Enslaved wasn't considered mediocre though (which is their latest offering). I think a lot of the problem lies in development type, but also on release schedules. Enslaved launched too close to other, more desired games.

Enslaved was meciocre. The game felt like it was playing itself.

Anyway how about they localize some Tales of games?

Let's count

Vesperia PS3- could be 150-200k release maybe more

Graces Wii - hard to say 100-300k probably

Graces F PS3 -  another 100-200k

new PS3 Tales - 200-300k

 

Just by translating those they would sell more copies than Crap of Titans did.

Honestly, I doubt any of them would pass 200k at this point... but even that would probably still mean better sales than Enslaved, Splatterhouse, COT or Majin anyway.
