probably? but they have expressed on a few occasions that they had a 5 Million lifetime goal post for rise of ronin
Wait what? The next Atelier is a mobile gacha game? I didn't catch that news o_o
Wait, is there any indication that they are no longer doing work with Nintendo or IntSys?
1. There's no indication that KT is no longer working with Nintendo on projects. The last Nintendo Musou title that released was Three Hopes not even two years ago.
Im in the same boat as you. I have a switch but its my only console and I legit only have it to play Nintendo games and nothing else. I buy all 3rd party games on pc on steam usually on g2a with cd keys
This case was Sony pretty much funded the development of that title why its under XDEV brand.
It was not. The game was only available in Asia with a limited localization. The twitter is active and there were signs that a sequel is in the works (not necessary with the same characters). Not to mention in the VN it sold inline with what others do. So I would not call it a dud.
The joke was that it wasn't Three "Hoops" that flopped but Rise of the Ronin, even though the anti exclusive argument people use when taking Sony money would sound very similar for their very successful Warriors games as well. I didn't think of it much more than that, it wasn't a criticism of them taking Sony money. It just didn't work out right out the gates this time.
when tecmo takes Nintendo's money it's for a spin-off of an already popular franchise guaranteeing a certain amount of success, whereas Rise of Ronin is a new IP they had high hopes for as a potential franchise but limiting a new third party ip to one console runs a much larger risk of failure.
There's always a risk of failure for a new IP, but getting backing for that new IP helps soften the potential blow. That goes just as much for Sony-backed titles as much as it does Nintendo.
They just released a Gyaru Ryza, so they didn't actually messed up that lol (the game features characters from all the atelier games).
No, that's mario warriors.
....guys, you don't need to tell me the difference between their Nintendo games is that they're successful, or that they have low risk, i know that. The joke is simply that the wording people use to try to hammer moves like this under the coals would also apply to their most successful games. And honestly, whereas Square taking Sony exclusivity is a bone headed decision at this point, can Koei really be blamed to the same extent? It's a new ip, that needs significant backing, that could use good marketing. All things Koei barely has. It didn't work out this time but it doesn't always work. The much bigger ? Is not having a PC port day one, which may have been Sony's call.
really have no idea where I insinuated Rise of Ronin should have been made for Nintendo, I only brought up their Nintendo games is because your the one who brought them up. i was more arguing unless it's a first party IP, third-party exclusives are dumb and ronin should have been on PC on day one since they had to know about poor PS5 software sales In japan
I agree, Bayonetta 3 should have been on PC amirite
yes, at leat modes could have made the game fun
If you actually think that that's a cool and based take, I'm just saying it's pretty much exactly industry standard that a first party publisher gets to decide what platforms the games they're financially backing shows up on, even if it's a third party ip
Crap, that's probably the only warriors game I would be interested since the characters proportions and cartoon like charm would give it enough of a twist.
Not that I can remember, or anything I can find.
