Bandai Namco Has Multiple "Major Titles" Planned For The Remainder Of 2023

I wouldn't mind the other Pac-Man World games coming to Switch.

Go Vacation 2 , please...

I would love a Pac-Man comeback in the style of World 3. It's so unique aesthetically.

Seriously the 2nd half of this year is ridiculously stacked, more stacked than at anytime in the history of the Switch IMO. So much 3rd party support i.e. Batman, Red Dead, Persona, Level 5 games, then you’ve got Mario RPG & Wonder and sooo much more. My wife will be looking at the bank statement and asking me questions for sure. LOL

Please let it be Pac-Man World 2 Re-Pac.

I’ll likely play the remasters for Baten Kaitos eventually but I’ve watched some of the cutscenes on Youtube and I really wish they would put the English voice acting back although that’s probably not happening at this point

Klonoa 3 would be nice. I'm largely hoping for another Tales entry.
Hopefully a good one.

I would love a new xevious.

Wonder if they fix that awful Tales of Symphonia port yet. Seriously though they should apologize and give us the sequel, Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World for free. That's the only way I would ever forgive them for ruining TOS this gen.

@Mariotag hopefully tales of arise for the switch 2

This wouldn't happen, but Soul Calibur 2 HD with Link on Switch, please.

@johnedwin Tbh, I've already played and beaten that on another system. It was pretty good!
I was hoping for a new one.
Though, rerelease of one of the other games would be good too.
Considering the Tales of Phantasia PSP game only came to Japan, and we only have the GBA version here, that's on my list for sure!

A Switch port of One Piece Odyssey would be nice.

praying its some genuinely cool stuff and not 20 terrible shovelware licensed anime arena fighters

I'm almost certain Naruto Storm Connections is one of these games.

Whatever happened to that Nintendo game that was supposed to be getting remastered/remake by Bandai Namco? Feels like we haven't gotten any update on what that game was or whether or not it's still being worked on.

Put more fighting games on switch please Bamco. I wish someone would greenlight Soul Calibur II HD.

A remaster of the Xenosaga games would be cool

im sure you do namco, im sure you do

Riiiiiidge racer pls namco

Baten Kaitos baby!
Oh I can't believe it's actually happening. Plus it looks way better than the butchered Tales of Symphonia port/pseudo remaster, because to be honest I was a little concerned for Baten Kaitos after that.

@luckyseven
The English voice acting really is terrible, not even just the quality of the acting itself, even though a good part of it is quite embarrassing tbh, but also the sound quality is terrible and the mix is laughable.

I kind of understand why they would get rid of it. I'd would say they can't really put it back there without it being an embarrassment to the remaster. What they need to do is record a new one but they probably won't bother.

If I'm being honest back in the days I just turned it off after a couple hours and never looked back. God was it annoying.

I love, love, love Baiten Kaitos with all my heart, but I'd be lying if I said it won't be bittersweet playing it without the narmtastic English voice acting. Most of it was goddawful (looking squarely at you, Lyude) but the voices for characters like Xella, Mizuti and Savyna will live forever in my mind's eye. Or ear.

@EaglyPurahfan It's already up for pre-order for weeks in most shops, what are you talking about?

Naruto is basically a compilation so they have Baten Kaitos and Jujutsu Kaisen for Switch. I feel they'll reveal one more thing at the next Direct. Possibly another remaster. My money is on Soul Calibur III.

Hopefully one of them is SynDuality

I'm still waiting for the tales of xillia remaster, both games should run on the switch, bundled together like the FFX switch version. Also, where is the new digimon story?

I think Switch will get an older Tekken game announced in the next Direct to complete the Smash Ultimate 3rd party cycle. Every single 3rd party character in Smash Ultimate has at least 1 of their games on Switch except Kazuya (sadly Sora's games are terrible cloud versions though), even Snake is on the Switch with the upcoming MGS Master Collection.

Everytime I launch Taiko no Tatsujin (which I absolutely love), I have to agree to six pages of text from Bandai Namco.
Just for that, I hope I never have to buy any of their games again.
There is worst than that of course (hello Ubiconnect account) but I paid the game full price, I don't need any kind of agreements with it.

Tales of Graces F port plz.

I’d like some Tekken ports please. Any, really

Namco Museum Vol 2 please - featuring Ridge Racer, Tekken, Cyber Sled, Cyber Commando, Cyber Cycles and Starblade.

Thanks

@Ironcore lol, a bit optimistic on that one my man

@smithyo Thats just the sort of thing someone from the Xevios army would say.

Definitely going to get Armored Core 6 (though I know this one isn't a Switch game).

Otherwise I'd love a Pac-Man World 2 Re-Pac, and certainly it should be about time for Ace Combat 8 (though this latter one probably wouldn't come to Switch). It's too soon for a new Tales I think, but a port/remaster of an older entry would be good news (and I think Switch 2, or whatever it ends up being, will probably get Arise at some point).

@EaglyPurahfan lol it literally is available for pre-order everywhere

Pacman Championship Edition DX + for Switch, on a cartridge please and thank you.

@Mariotag
a "definitive" version of phantasia in the west was something i always would have loved to have seen.

@mlt ”LOOK AT MY BEAUTIFUL WINGS! I’VE FOUND MYSELF!”
Rewatching some of the cutscenes I can definitely see where you’re coming from it since sounds so funny. As bad as it is it feels charming in a way since the voices sound like they were recorded in a tin can. I think F-Zero GX shares some of the same VAs and they don’t even sound as bad, it’s that early Gamecube charm

@luckyseven
What's this from?
Ironically, I thought you were replying to me at first, as that name can also refer to me elsewhere.

@Mgalens
Absolutely yes! I started with Symphonia. I still have the OG gamecube version, as well as the ps3 version.
I've played a fair few of the games since then. Didn't end up liking the Xillia saga as much, or Zestiria/Berseria. I felt that Xillia fell a little short of my expectations, and had too much grinding for what I wanted to accomplish. Zestiria felt too unserious. And short. Berseria was better than Zestiria, and I did the story, but, to do the extra content, I'd have to grind for ages. Arise was superb though. Reminded me of Symphonia in theme, ironically enough.

@Mariotag The spoiler box is a quote from Baten Kaitos but since there’s a lot of new people going to be playing it I didn’t want to unmark the spoiler

I wish RAD would get some DLC...
