Knowing Tekken will include a 3D feature film, are you more likely to buy?

Thursday, August 18th, 2011 at 12:59am by Richard

Right now the internet’s buzzing about Namco Bandai’s upcoming 3DS fighter Tekken 3D Prime Edition. No release date yet, but most talk centers around the company’s decision to include its recent feature film Tekken: Blood Vengeance on the cartridge in full 3D.

As a guy who enjoys Tekken and loves 3D movies (well, good movies that happen to be in 3D), I’m suddenly interested in this title. I’ve been hoping for 3D feature films on 3DS, and it looks like Tekken may very well be the first.

But, readers, I’d like to know your thoughts on this: Has it made the game more attractive to you? Were you planning on buying it anyway? Isn’t it weird seeing Tekken finally coming to Nintendo again? And–a really important point–has anyone here actually seen Tekken: Blood Vengeance? It would certainly help if the movie was actually good.

Of course, it’ll be nice if the game’s great.

Pandora’s Tower, first look

When Pandora’s Tower was first announced back in February, details about the title were…well we didn’t have any. Now we have video!

There are still no details on exactly what type of game Pandora’s Tower will be, but my guess is that it will be of the hack and slack, Devil May Cry-ish type. My hope is that the title will be a JRPG with a real time battle system, not unlike Namco’s own Tales series.

Pandora’s Tower will be out May 26th in Japan, with no Western release announced as of yet.

What do you think? Is Pandora’s Tower on your Wii radar?

Subtitled Farewell Ruins of the Moon, the acclaimed role-playing game released in Japan earlier this year and was widely praised as one of the most beautiful Wii games to date.

Although no specific release date has been set, XSEED is aiming for a winter 2009 release.

Fragile was published in Japan by Namco Bandai. Despite the pleading of fans in North America, the company had no plans to bring the title stateside.

That’s where XSEED comes in.
