Super Breath of Fire 6 Dragon Puzzle Fighter Turbo?

CrescentFang5065d ago (Edited 5065d ago )

"Super Marvel vs Capcom 2" did he mean 3?
First the US didn't get BoF III (PSP) for unknown reasons (there are only rumors about that) and we also didn't get the Last Ranker which didn't leave Japan. The heads at Capcom JP clearly don't think about anything correctly anymore, they even though Mega Man was unpopular outside Japan! What rubbish...
Dragon's Dogma sounded cool when we heard Capcom trademarked it. For some reason Demon's Souls has made 3rd person medieval action rpgs something mainstream... I was hoping for a traditional rpg... oh well...
I don't think we'll be seeing one for years and if we do, will it even leave Japan?

Great comments :) I didn't realise that the US didn't get BoF3 actually, as I acquired the PAL version. It's on the EU PSN, is it on the US PSN as well? Sadly my PS3 is packed away for house moving so I can't go check myself!

You're right though, given the current climate, if they did create a new Breath of Fire, it may remain a Japanese only exclusive. Still, it would be nice to see one at least!

Breath of Fire IV was the best in the franchise. It deserves a sequel since the story never really ended but Breath of Fire V was ugh... a totally new game. While it wasn't a bad JRPG it wasn't the sequel to Breath of Fire IV.

So if Capcom wants to revive the franchise a Breath of Fire IV-2 would be in order.

GammaTru5064d ago

Number 3 was definitely my favorite of the bunch, but I do wish they would release IV on PSN or something. I had it on the original PSOne years ago and then lost my copy :(

CLOUD19835064d ago

Breath of Fire III is one of my favorite JRPG amazing game, I really hope CAPCOM revive the franchise soon and make one more traditional JRPG w/o westernization, real time battles and action gameplay that's the downfall of the genre the last decade nothing is traditional anymore and all JRPG's have too much westernization we need more traditional JRPG's more turn based battles more +stories / -graphics and more awesome soundtracks do that CAPCOM u once new the magic formula! what happen? :/

More games in development you say, Breath of Fire 3 and 4 remastered collection? Because that is what I am waiting for.

gold_drake12d ago (Edited 12d ago )

4 just came out for pc again.

not a remaster tho

FinalFantasyFanatic11d ago

I would buy remasters of 3 and 4 in a heartbeat, although GOG did make some improvements to the BOF4, it looks great for an old game.

CrimsonWing6912d ago (Edited 12d ago )

Man, of everything they have remastered, I’d give them all up if it meant just getting these 2 remasters.

gold_drake12d ago

look, capcom has found a sweet spot for their games.

the RE engine is pretty amazing.

Goodguy0112d ago

I wonder if they'll continue to make any new ace attorney and megaman games. They should definitely revisit breath of fire at some point, remaster em, pixel remaster. Please, something capcom.

neutralgamer199212d ago

I think they will continue to utilize all their IP's. They have found how to succeed and that's by making fun games

This is huge, but why in the hell isn’t it available on PS5?

FinalFantasyFanatic28d ago

Because GOG personally put the effort in to make the PC version playable on modern PCs, Capcom had little to no part in this remaster. If there's enough demand, we might get a BOF collection later. Just like Eiyuden got us the Suikoden 1/2, Armed Fantasia got us Wild Arms 1 and 2 on PS4/PS5, and I guess Ratatan got us the Patapon collection (although 1 and 2 were already available as PS classics).

PS5 and Switch 2 version please!!!

wiegraf28d ago

This has been avaiable for decades now. I even have it on my iphone lol
