Did Technoman blade ever get fired out of a giant revolver-shaped canon that was sticking out of a pizzeria to fight robot crows?

It's not too late, I'm guessing. They have to replace that fat stupid genie character with someone else due to licencing issues (apparently he's in an American game... I'd like to know what), and then there's 4 other characters planned for the US and Euro release. If Tekkaman Blade is one of them, that means there is still 4 more slots available because that genie has to be replaced, aside from the 4 new characters.

I desperately want Speed Racer added. Samurai Pizza Cats, I don't think would work. They're way too small to be balanced.

Come on Capcom, how hard is it to mess around with the font and get Objection! to work. You could even just leave the kanji, and just translate the voiceover.

We. Want. Phoenix. Wright.

Tekkaman Blade showed up on the earliest years of either Fox Box or Kids WB back in the mid 90s late Saturday morning for like 2 years. I remember watching it like crazy and then even importing the really fun old b&w Gameboy game of it.

It was the UPN kids shows.

It lasted half a season and then they replaced it with Jumanji.

Man I hated Jumanji.

Isn't Tekkaman Blade already in the japanese version? I'm sure of it.

Nope, there's a Tekkaman and a Tekkaman Blade. Regular Tekkaman has rounded armor, while Tekkaman Blade (A.K.A. Teknoman, who's wearer was mistranslated Slade when it was shown on UPN, and then corrected back to Blade for the English dub DVD release) has more sharper-looking armor with edges. Tekkaman Blade was sort of a reinvention of the now retro regular Tekkaman. The two Tekkamen suits are worn by different characters and are armed with different weapons, the original using a huge lance, while the Blade version uses a blade, hence the Blade after it's name (there's also a Tekkaman Rapier and Tekkaman "Gunnar" in the Tekkaman Blade series).

Ohhh so much knowledge, I only know anime from the late 80s onwards, and the majority is still from the year 2000 and later.

Haha- for the western version of the game, it's funny that Capcom is revealing all of this in Japan first. Oh well. If it's coming out in December in Japan, it damn sure better come out in December in the US!
(Europe, you guys already know you're screwed until 2010 by virtue of the fact that you're Europeans.)

Which is why I'm importing it. Again. Don't look at me like that, I want my games now.

Of course, I'm going to have to sell my import copy...any takers?
