Tecmo assaulting E3 with ninjas, zombies ... basketball?
Dear Koei,
Things are great, and so far infection-free here at E3. Sure, we miss your quirky style, who wouldn't? Still, we're keeping ourselves busy readying games for the show, including Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2, which ships for the PlayStation 3 this fall.
Other games we've got at our booth this year include Family Fun Football on the Wii, action game Undead Knights for the PSP, and -- oh -- did you know we were making a basketball game? It's true! We've got several downloadable titles this year, including a "contemporary retro" arcade-style basketball game called NBA Unrivaled and an action puzzler named Puzzlegeddon, both we hope to hit XBLA and PSN later this year.
Team Ninja's PS3-exclusive "art nouveau" shooter, Quantum, and the musical 2D platformer Fret Nice will also be on hand, though neither are expected to ship until sometime next year. All in all, we've got a lot of games to show off -- plus without any Dynasty Warriors games blocking our view we've got a clear shot those Ninja Gaiden models. Oo la la!
Wishing you were here,
Tecmo

I was hoping for some dynasty warriors announcements.

QUantom looks like shit.

And sorry to dissapoint you, it looks pretty good in fact, pleasantly suprised by this game.
But your comment history indicates why you would come over to criticise a game by a developer that dumped the 360 for the PS3

heres where i point out cultural differences btw the west and the east.
over here in southeast asia, "KOTEC" which sounds like "KOTEK" means penis. D:

NBA Unrivaled sounds like an NBA Jam clone, which makes my kotek stand up and rejoice!

Meh. Although I do think Sigma looks good. I just don't like the idea of Tecmo Bowl going "family-friendly". And change your company name. Sounds like a tampon. Although KoMo wouldn't be a lot better, either.

the company name means 'penis' in my country, fer real, no joke here ;)

No Dynasty Ranchers? Monster Warriors? No Warship Gunner 3? Return of Uncharted Waters to America? They must be sitting pretty on their Gundam game.

I'd kinda like a 360/PS3 Fatal Frame, please. And what about Dead or Alive? Wasn't there a DoA action game in development? Code Cronus or something? And from KOEI specifically... I'd kinda like a new Uncharted Waters or Inindo game, please :D
LocalToast @ Jun 2nd 2009 6:54PM
And Metroid!
Hotaru Tomoe @ Jun 2nd 2009 8:46PM
They didnt mention DOA, again. Ugh. NG Sigma's Ayane will make that game better at least. I hope.
