Although there were several rumours that Fumito Ueda and his team would make an announcement about their third game at this year's Tokyo Game Show, they didn't. Team ICO Gamers explores what could be the two reasons behind this fact and explains why this shouldn't be a disappointment but a sign of hope of great things to come.
268,446 people attended the Tokyo Game Show this year, the Computer Entertainment Supplier’s Association announced.
The four-day trade show ran from September 17 to 20 at the Makuhari Messe in Chiba.
The 2013 edition of the expo still holds the record for the highest attended Tokyo Game Show.
This year’s busiest day was September 20, with 112,230 people inside the Makuhari Messe.
In a bit of Square Enix synergy, double-gun-blasting arcade action game Gunslinger Stratos 2 is set to be spiced up with Final Fantasy costumes. Previewed at Tokyo Game Show, the November campaign for the game which premiered in February will feature the likes of Tifa, Cloud, Kuja, Golbeza and Moogle outfits.
While in Japan for Tokyo Game Show 2012, we were treated to a brief demonstration of the upcoming Wii U version of Tekken Tag Tournament 2. The game was showcased by Tekken series director Katsuhiro Harada, and he talked up all the interesting new features in this version of Tekken Tag 2, which includes Nintendo costumes for the characters and a Mario-themed minigame. Afterwards we asked Harada if he had any comments on his team's involvement with another Nintendo game. In case you missed it, it was revealed a few months ago that Namco Bandai would be helping Nintendo with development of the next Super Smash Bros.
I'm just saying they look like some wannabe rappers..LOL
I'm sure it will be fun....
I have to respect Nintendo though...They kept me going through the dark ages of gaming...( In corner in the fetal position)
Question and humor me if I am lost, dumb, whatever...
Where is Hudson? Haven't they been the creators of SMASH since the beginning?
"Where is Hudson? Haven't they been the creators of SMASH since the beginning?"
HAL Laboratory and Sora are the main developer of SSB.
On wiki it says that Namco Bandai and Sora Ltd. are collaborating on SSB:WU; but its still mainly Sore Ltd. project. So don't worry Masahiro Sakurai is still on board and overseeing things.
@Kalowest
Yes That is it. Thank you. Well, I am always confident in the developers behind the series. I do hope (no doubts really at all) that SMASH Wii U will be a stellar title.
Tokyo Game Show was crap. expected lots of games ICo Shahow Colosus 2 e.t.c and most of Final Fantasy VII Remake steals the show
I call shenanigans on team ico! I'm really starting to believe that this game doesn't exist. I mean really, two years and they still haven't shown anything.
