One Piece: Unlimited Cruise SP - 3DS

[dropper]

It's still a bit vague, Namco-Bandai's confirmation is from the European site, which isn't specific to the UK.
I remember pre-ordering Gigant Battle from a couple of sites, but they eventually got cancelled. I still need to import a copy!

We will need confirmation that it will reach the UK, we already received confirmation that Gigant Battle won't reach the UK!

Yeah it's kinda hard since Gigant Battle appeared to have been dropped literally on the day of release. Even magazines were given preview copies etc. (Although did any of them review it?)

[black-leg jex]

I didn't see a review in the end. Only the previews

[Link-san]

I'm sure Ngamer reviewed the English version.

Try asking Namco Bandai's PR guy on his ]Twitter[/url]. He replied to me when I questioned him about the Gigantic battle UK release.

TGS stream is live right now, it's in Japanese but I'm pretty sure they are talking about One Piece. One of the guys has a straw hat.

That's the trailer for the PS3 game. Speaking of.... where the hell did the thread for the One Piece PS3 game go!? Shouldn't it be in this section?

[black-leg jex]

it should be but was moved to the video game section

Oh gosh... Gigant Battle, I am so confused about that game. One Piece games seem to be pretty damn elusive these days, even for us Europeans. ._. A few stores I've visited both online and in the highstreet have it in their systems but never in stock and unavailable to order (was the same story with Unlimited Cruise 1 and 2, thank Enel I have both now after a long struggle)... and then my friends went into Gamestop and got the last copy? Right now, I'm assuming that it was a copy ordered from Germany (central hub of gaming and anime community for Europe; most games are assembled there) and sold it to Gamestop or something... Everywhere keeps changing the story, right now the common word is that it's going to be released 1st November...?

Anybody else got anything different? @_@

I know some people who have gotten Gigant Battle for review purpose, but I don't know where to get it either.
Anyway, sorry for asking stupid questions but I don't feel like going trough 40 pages for the answer...
Is this 3DS game a remake of the 2 Wii games (or just one of them) or is this a whole new game?

Remake with some small bits taken out and a Marineford mode tacked on. Also added Hancock, Iva, Akainu, Jinbe, Marco and Jozu in for Marineford.

Amazon.it had some copies, at a discount too. But they have now completely sold out =(

In your opinion, worth buying?

[black-leg jex]

I can probably guess his opinion. Not at all if you've already got Unlimited cruise 1 & 2 on wii. If you don't have either then yeah. I also agree

[Legato]

Well I do have those games, but havent really took the time to play trough them yet and I AM still looking for 3DS games since I only have one so far =p
But if its really just the same game it may be better just to play those 2...

[black-leg jex]

What it is is those two games with a marineford mode added. Hancock, jinbei, akainu, marco & Jozu are added. Vs. Mode and Boss rush mode have been removed though

erm gigant battle is coming to the UK!

[dropper]

erm gigant battle is coming to the UK!

Confirmation? Really.....?

[dropper]

So the dates are as follows according to Amazon:
France: 30th November
Italy: 2nd February
Germany: 24th February
UK: ??

Namco Bandai EU's site says 2011, who knows when this game will come out really?
With the Straw Hat crew being all cool and awesome heading to the new world in both the anime and the manga, I'm starting to feel the game will be too old to play by the time it gets released in English (if it does).

[Cyber-Robin]

Game.co.uk have Gigant Battle for the 3DS listed as 2nd Feb too. I'm assuming they mean this.

I have a long old pre-order for this one so I'll not be happy if they changed the date or cancel without informing us.

[King Calamari]

Well if Australia is anything to go by I doubt the game is being released in the UK either.
