MjrMisaHayase Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 Courtesy of Gamespot.com. Which got me to ask this question: Will there'll be a Macross game for the GameCube and/or Game Boy Advance in the future? Quote
treatment Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 Should be in Games-forum, but... I thought it wasn't official, yet. That being said, I guess we'll see the Char Gamecube-colors here. Not sure if the new Macross-Game will be ported to the gamecube and release here in the States, tho. Quote
Abombz!! Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 Actually..... its a Gundam game. Its been announced for quite a while now. But that also opens the possiblity to other Bandai goodness. Quote
Druna Skass Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 Not sure if the new Macross-Game will be ported to the gamecube and release here in the States, tho. I'd be hella pissed if they brought the Macross game here only for GC... Quote

I'd be hella pissed if they brought the Macross game here only for GC... Yeah, like I like trying to get ahold of a PS2 for a Macross game... <_< If anything, it would be a great partnership - if Bandai would push their non-Gundam titles on Nintendo, then Nintendo would definetly give them the attention they deserve.

yellowlightman Posted October 17, 2003 Posted October 17, 2003 Well, they only bought about 2.5% of the company, not like it's a takeover or anything. I think if anything Nintendo is just trying to buy some support from Bandai, some SRW or other licensed games certainly wouldn't hurt the Gamecube... And I'd prefer if the Macross game was released on the GC, smoother graphics faster loading times and a whole helluva lot easier to import. But it's pretty unlikely. Quote
JB0 Posted October 18, 2003 Posted October 18, 2003 Well, they only bought about 2.5% of the company, not like it's a takeover or anything. Yes, but then the japanese tabloids said it was the first step of a merger, and the more gullible news outlets started reporting this as fact. Quote

But it's pretty unlikely. In an ideal world, the Macross game would get a US release for the PS2. That said, a US Cube release would be the next best thing. Failing that, a Japanese Cube port beats importing for the PS2, because to import for the Cube all you gotta do is get the game, and either get a Freeloader or an Action Replay (Freeloader is part of the AR software), load that, swap discs, and play away.

LePoseur Posted October 19, 2003 Posted October 19, 2003 Well, they only bought about 2.5% of the company, not like it's a takeover or anything. Yes, but then the japanese tabloids said it was the first step of a merger, and the more gullible news outlets started reporting this as fact. But I believe it was phrased more as "Nintendo buys Bandai stock! First Stage of Merger!?" as that fits the tabloid's style more. Does anyone have the original? Nintendo could do much better than buying Bandai if it wants to shore up is video game department. Remember, Sony was funeling cash into Square for a long while (before their merger with Enix) in order to give them leverage over Square's titles. Nintendo's just doing the same. Quote
