Given that Suda games don't sell very well and are not likely to get sequels it is easy to imagine they don't have any claim to this game. It is likely the original contract had no provisions for any sequel at all as there was no reason to expect one at all. So it might be less of an issue with Ubisoft letting the property go and more of an issue of them not being aggressive enough in getting publishing rights for the sequel.
| trestres said: So, by doing this they are condemning themselves to low sales, as well as removing good things in the game (Like the bonus comic that came with the game). No ads + no hype = only fans will buy it. Too bad Suda wants his games to fail, if not he would have chosen another publisher, like SEGA. Ubisoft destroying another possible hit confirmed. |
The game sold 220K in the US. That's the best any of his games have ever sold. So that claim wasn't even true before, and it's not true this time.
Ubisoft didn't give a lot of hype to the game because Suda's games were niche before. Any publisher would have done that. It's a hit, so that makes the next game a hotter property than the last one.
A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs
I know a lot of peeps don't want ubiz to produce this. But i have to ask, does anyone know how well xseed advertises their games?

Exactly. Ive never even seen a commercial for XSEED publish game. People are dumbasses they are quick to talk shit about Ubisoft because of their Z series or whatever but Ubisoft can afford to market NMH2 better than XSEED if they wanted.
People like XSEED only because they decide to bring alot of good games to the west but they dont understand that they do not market games well. So either way publisher wont really matter.

LOL and they say Quantum of Solace Wii have 12 players online too...
@trestes----> Why are you so pessimistic and negative in Wii games and third party on the Wii in general all of the sudden? If you read IGN the Wii version of COD 5 have a score of lower than 8.0 do you believe them? Have faith, OK?
end of core gaming days prediction:
E3 2006-The beginning of the end. Wii introduced
E3 2008- Armageddon. Wii motion plus introduced. Wii Music. Reggie says Animal crossing was a core game. Massive disappointment. many Wii core gamers selling their Wii.
E3 2010- Tape runs out
