One Piece: Unlimited Cruise SP - 3DS

[dropper]

I knew it, god damn it.

I still hope there is at least a playable English version which we can import.

Queried about the game in Game today where I had the pre-order. Was told.

November 25th. Online store only.

Not on online store tho XD Apparently they received that list last week too so~

I contacted the online store about it. See what they say.

Namco Bandai have released a new release date list and this is down as a February release :(

what country is that 4 though?

[Cyber-Robin]

Certainly Europe because of the Tales Of Abyss date. Which is now wrong because they announced that too has been delayed.

In Spain Bandai Namco confirmed new released date some days ago. I asked them in their Twitter :(

[black-leg jex]

boo! well i suppose it's kinda ok. Last thing i needed was another game to buy in november

[dropper]

I presume that this is because sales won't be as good before Christmas. Once Mario Kart, Super Mario and all the kids get their 3DS at Xmas, chances are other games will sell better too!

Also, I completed Gigant Battle yesterday, I noticed in the credits that Namco-Bandai did indeed have a UK marketing person. Next time I'll write down the name and see if I can contact her about further details about the One Piece games reaching the UK. If anyone has any bribe money at hand, that would be welcome too! (jokes)

Tales of Abyss date is correct (25th November), Namco Bandai reconfirmed it today.

They did? They announced yesterday it was different XD

Just goes to show how useful they are when dealing with UK release dates and releases

[redon]

The game will be available in Spain (and I suposse in all Europe) 10th February.

[J-Sack]

This makes it seem like it is coming out in the states too.... ?

Then again, it may be a European list and just a screw up on their part.

[The Namekian Clown]

Yeah that's the European list, you can also tell by The Last Story and Pandora's Tower. Here's the American list, with no One Piece in sight: http://gonintendo.com/?mode=viewstory&id=168342

[Hinscher]

ah damn. Why can we not get this game in america. I played unlimited adventure to shit.

And cruise NEVER came over to america, was so glad that both were going to be on one game when it was announced and though "maybe this time"

but no, nothing yet. Isn't one piece selling decent over here? I thought the dvd's were doing good and the manga.


Oh and as for unlimited adventure. I had gone to 5 stores looking for the game and no one even knew what teh game was, and none of them had it. This was like a week after its release. I had to order online. How the hell does a company expect to sell a game if they don't release any copies.

I mean sure its the retailer that orders however many copies they want, but its the game companies job to make the retailer WANT to order there game and put it on shelves.

[Zephray]

Yeah, i think I'm going to buy a Euro 3DS for this game. F*** region locking.

[Cruithne]

I wonder how long it's gonna take for someone to crack the region protection on the 3DS. :[

UPDATE Make sure you snap up your copy of One Piece Unlimited Cruise Special early, as the first print run of the game will be bundled with a limited-edition collectable figurine of Portgas D. Ace.http://www.nintendo.co.uk/NOE/en_GB/news/2011/nintendo_and_namco_bandai_sign_european_distributi on_deal_for_one_piece_unlimited_cruise_special_471 95.html

Here's hoping this game actually releases in the UK....unlike Gigant Battle which was in english anyway. Anyone tried asking namco bandai uk's twitter if its coming out in the UK? http://twitter.com/#!/NamcoBandaiUK

[Cyber-Robin]

Anybets its the MSP Ace

[dropper]

Wow Europe gets a special edition? Hot hot hot!!

[luffink]

For all of you jumping around in joy with the news of the european release, wait and read the article again. It clearly says that the game is a remake of One Piece Unlimited Cruise PART ONE. JUST PART ONE. I just hope it´s a mistake from Nintendo, but I´ll send a mail to NamcoBandai for more info
