Sigh... I thought it was TV anime.
I can't wait for a Jojo and Bobo Show Show Game!
Could really go for a Monster Musume game.
Cool, more random 3D anime fighting games....
@Mrnotultra JoJo siwa's bizarre adventure: bows are unbreakable
If the Nintendo Switch western playerbase could get some gundam games, cough gundam breaker cough that'd be greeaaaaaaat.
I don't know about you guys, but I think they're going to be showing anime games during this.
@Mrnotultra legend of jojo: bows of the wild
Eyes of heaven or riot.
Please tales of berseria , zestiria , symphonia , and maybe some news on arise
Can we PLEASE get an anime game that actually uses the fight tracks from the show! Also a demon slayer and mob psycho game would be nice
My dream: A 2D Naruto fighting game using the MvC2 engine.
Uhhhh... Elden Ring counts, right?
Really hoping for a port of shinobi strikers
Digimon Survive info please
Jojo please. Fist of the North Star: Lost Paradise would also be very nice.
I love anime, but far and few anime games actually live up to their source material. It always feels like developers of anime games are just capitalizing on the name and delivering just enough so that the die hard fans of an IP will buy it.
Anime is such a rich medium, bursting with potential for games of all genres! Yet so many anime games end up as dull 1v1 fighting games with anime characters...
@JimmySpades I'd buy it!
@RPGamer - I really hope for that SAO game port. I played and really enjoyed both SAO games currently on Switch and I'd be real salty if we don't eventually get the new one. SAO, along with Dragon Ball, is one of the very very few anime with decent games. Another Tales game on Switch would be great too! Be it an older Tales ported to the console or a new one, I'd take either. Loved Tales of Vesperia!
My personal wish is for a big Gundam Strategy game. Something set during the original series, but on a grand scale, commanding armies of mobile suits and battleships.
Or a Gundam JRPG, where you play through either the story of an existing Gundam anime, or an all new story.
But that probably wont happen...
Eh, I'll check out the news later.
One punch man the game hahah, every boss kill with just one punch 😂😂😂 no just kidding or a game from one punch where you play as your own character and Saitama is nowhere to be found (Just chilling till the final boss) 😂 no a game like that wont work i think.
Or DBZ kakarot for switch.
@The-Chosen-one Ya know I think the DBZ Kakarot for switch will happen. I would love for the One Punch Man game to happen
@RPGamer ikr. It actually annoys me so much. Especially naruto!
Naruto fighterz!!!
@RPGamer Did Hollow Realization and Fatal Bullet not have physical releases? I bought the both digital.
Eyes of Heaven and Fist of the North Star must meet the Nintendo Switch!
@RPGamer That's really weird. Why have physical in Japan and Europe but not America?
Maybe it's Bandai reacting to the SAO haters among English speakers. They're about as bad as Pokemon haters.
@RPGamer People hate on SAO because it got really popular for a while, just like they hate the fact that Pokemon remains popular despite their endless complaint fiestas online attacking every little detail.
They think it makes them cool to attack popular things. So edgy because they are "different" and want everyone to conform to their opinion because they "know so much better".
Personally, I think there are few things more pathetic than following around a franchise you "hate" just to tell everyone how bad it is. Even worse when people say things like "I'm A pOkemon fAn BUt dis game be so bAd! LIKe i rike it but iT no has Sampert so terRible!"
"SAO iZ so baaD beCause KiruTo has all Dez girls and seXist fictiOnal nonsense makes meh Angury!"
You know what I do with things I don't like? I move on with my life and enjoy the things I do. I don't like the new directions of Star Wars and Food Wars so I stick with the older content that I do like. I don't like Fortnite, so I just don't play Fortnite.
Simple.
@RPGamer Yeah, I can really understand why people might not like Food Wars. It has a very over the top in your face totally shameless style of humor. Though I enjoyed it. It was actually the story direction of the latest season that I dislike. They're kinda doing a Bleach - where they accomplished all the long term goals and beat the bad guy and decided they wanted to milk more money by continuing the show - so they had to shoehorn in more obstacles and invalidate all the progress made prior... So my head canon is that the last season was the previous season and this "actual" final season is fan fiction.
But I digress.
It really is that simple, if one does not like something, move on. It's not hard. There's no reason to follow people around to continually tell them how wrong they are by your measures. There's no reason to fixate on one thing like so many people do with popular series like Pokemon or SAO etc etc.
@RPGamer I'm not gonna ask you to give it another shot, but I am gonna say that while Soma is good at what he does, he does quickly learn that he is hardly alone in his skill, and he is not the absolute best. That's one of the things the show did right in my opinion. But yes, it's a harem. He gets almost every girl. lol
