FUNimation Simulcast Discussion

[Envy]

FUNimation's Twitter updated with this today.

"We are working on the return of One Piece online. We WANT the return of One Piece. But again, there are many,many steps from here to there."

I know it's not much of anything new, but I thought everybody else might want to see.

[ABSMr.Prince]

You know Greg Ayres?!

I'm glad I'm not the only one who was reminded of greg reading that. I know him

Well, at least we know they're fighting for it. Better than no news at all, I suppose.

[LUFFY#1 fan]

I sware someone on this forum called ace or something like that said he want a anime conviention or expo (something like that) He said one of the Funimation staff confirmed that we were getting it back. So why is funimation saying they are still trying to get it? I sinse lies

[J-Sack]

If that is true, people will just bitch about when. People are ungrateful, let em get everything straight before saying anything else.

Then again, what you say may not be true at all.

[Demon Rin]

Yeah, I think it's very probable that the person who said that was mistaken.

She probably didn't lie, but probably misheard when they said the Video Portal was coming back, that it was the simulcast too.

Getting One Piece back won't be Easy, they have to convince Toei, and we've already talked about how they can be.

To bad we can't get anyone to WANT to bring over the OP games.

[Green_vs_Red]

^The only one that'd make since to bring over (now) would be Cruise.

[Sakonosolo]

Yeah, but there havn't been any announcements of bringing either Cruise game over. I really hope they do though. I know they won't do this, but maybe the Cruise games could be released together for like $70 or something. That'd be awesome.

[Palochka]

Maybe with all this attention towards current One Piece they WILL bring over the Cruise games. Please? PLEASE?!

[firecrouch]

First of all, this sounds like a repeat of what we already know. "One Piece" will come back, it'll just take time.

Second, can't we just forget about Cruise?

[Sakonosolo]

Why would we want to forget about Cruise? I wanna play it, damnit! I'd get the Japanese one (or probably more likely the European version), but the goddamn region lock prevents this .

[firecrouch]

Because it's highly likely it's not coming out in North America.

I won't be able to forget about it, I want it badly T_T

Silly Firecrouch telling One fans to forget is like telling the Cowboys not to choke in a playoff game...pointless.

[firecrouch]

I'm not telling to forget, I'm just asking why they can't stop talking about it.

[Dixxy Mouri]

I'm not telling to forget, I'm just asking why they can't stop talking about it.

Because we want the game? I think most people have given up on it coming to North America, but I still might send a "disappointed customer" letter to Namco Bandai for their customer service these past several months.

[Darkstorm]

Did Adventure sell well enough to justify a release in the states?

[Sakonosolo]

I think that's the reason people are giving up, that it didn't sell well. But I want it .

[King Calamari]

Funimation has no authority when it comes to the games anyway. Complaining, questioning, or requests to them won't do jack squat neither will it get you anywhere with Namco Bandai.
