Hey guys I just noticed amazon.com updated the Basara US release date to October 26. So whoever mentioned about Dead Rising 2 pushing it back was probably on to something. Gamestop is currently still at Oct. 1, but it'll probably move eventually.

Wonder if Famitsu has something in store tonight...


Edit: Yeah, Shokatshin, the bump back actually reassured me about my decision to import, even though I feel bad others are stuck waiting longer now for the US version

October 26! So faaaar... I was somewhat tempted to import it, but to be honest, my drive for this game petered off a little so I'm willing to wait. Also, saving up what little I have left for SDCC.

Wow, thank god I'm able to import it. Well, don't forget. The people who can't import it have the demo. And, S&P gets more and more amazing the farther I get, what a challenge that game is! :cool:

Thank you, RT. I'm gonna go look for it now!

The Europe version still comes out in September right? People can just import it from there.

I'm sure the Europe version would follow the US date. Remember, there was never a solid release date pegged down to begin with, so this Oct 26 is probably the first real date they've given anyway




Edit: Nice, Basara in Famitsu this week. It's probably just the rest of the characters' unique gameplay mechanics, though, but here's hoping for a surprise

早売りゲットしたが…
新キャラなんていないじゃないかバカヤロー
しかも先週やった戦闘スタイルでもない。武将6人の物語紹介でずっこけた

This week's info is neither about a new character nor battle style description. It's the story introduction for 6 characters. (Ieyasu, Mitsunari, Masamune, Yukimura, Magoichi, Kanbei)

OT: Wow post #4444 XD

Slightly more fleshed out motivations for Kanbei and Magoichi? Lang Zi says: Yesssss

Damn, they really got nothing left to show...



Edit: @ Akiro: We are definitely going to see one more character, they've been consistently saying "over 15 playable characters" in multiple places (official site, previews, even straight from Kobayashi's mouth). It is just a matter of who that character is at this point (most likely Musashi or Hisahide)

Looks like it.

I'm starting to doubt that we'll see even one more character now. Though, thats probably just my pessimistic side kicking in again.

Eh, the 34 characters hint and all other clues are pointing to one last PC, so it would be wise if you guys & gals set your expectation exactly at that level, nothing more nothing less. ;)

At this rate they might just announce the last PC very close before release, so let's see in 2-3 weeks.
Oh, and before that, maybe Kotaro's vid at the JP site.

UPDATE:

Story split tree revealed it seems.

And for a news, the aforementioned 6 characters are the characters that will be initially available. brb creating a new poll.

I no longer look forward to these Famitsu scans as much as I used lol... But hey, any kind of update is always welcome when it comes to this game, no?

@BlackKite
I'm fully aware of your 'hatred' for the westernized name order but how do you feel about some names being intentionally misspelled? Would you still have blown the western version off if they kept the Asian order but kept in the spelling differences?

Many story paths probably = SO. MANY. DIALOGUE TREES. Maybe Capcom wasn't entirely lying about how trying to fit two vocal tracks on a Wii disc wasn't a realistic notion. :hehe:

Thanks for asking. I frowned a bit when hearing the official misspelling indeed; I feel it's an unnecessary change. But to be honest, it doesn't bother me that much since it's just one letter differences so far, so there's not much difference to the name IMO. (In Kanbe's case, 官兵衛 is actually written in hiragana as かんべえ Kanbee, so it still makes sense)

And yeah, with that said, if SBSH had "Eastern name order with 'stylized (sic)' spelling" (eg. Saica Magoichi), I would still have been an avid fan of SB series by now because it's not deal-breaking at all for me. ^^;

Spoiler: click to toggle

Apparently an allegedly new character is going to be revealed in next week's Jump. Yep, not Famitsu, but it's going to come next week. But some 2ch-ers also guessed that next week's Famitsu might have it as well.

Ohhhh, new character for next week. I can imagine this thread is going to explode with excitement and speculation soon. I only hope it's not... well... a cop out, like Itsucki or something of that effect. No, no, not even Kobayashi and his crew of scurvy dogs would do something as heinous as THAT.

WHO WILL IT BE? WHO?

Eh, NEW character you say? I assume this is really gonna split the board in half. Not even a mention of Hisahide or Musashi is ridiculous, especially when the former was promised a playable debut in the next "big" installment. On the other hand, this last character should play quite the role in the story and hopefully be important to the overall plot if Capcoms been saving him/her for last... but why can't I see this ending well.

We have most of the important samurai of the time, and most of the ones we don't have been spotted as generic generals in the gameplay vids. Plus, I doubt the likes of Itsuki, Musashi or even Ranmaru would be redesigned older to technically be dubbed as a new character. After all, didn't Koba state Ieyasu would be the only one to grow up?

So, with Hisahide and Musashi presumably out of the window, and with most of the better known and crucial samurai already playable, NPC, or just plain generic, who could it possibly be? Well, my bets on (and it pains me to say this) a bonus character. Perhaps another Capcom star, one who'll help boost sales in the West, plus be nice addition for overall Capcom fans. If so, I guess we'll be seeing the "not so welcome on this board" Dante :rolleyes:

Though, I'm hoping Capcom will put my worries to rest and show someone we actually need and want. Heck, it may be the Eastern general who launched the attack on Shikoku, in which case... Hanzo, Kiyomasa, Masanori, Takatora, Mototada...?

Whatever the case, I can't help but feel extremely sorry for our Hisahide fans...

To me, the worst case scenario is either Itsuki or a bonus character like you mentioned, Manta. I swear, if it's a Bonus Character, I'll go through the hassle of never, ever unlocking or using him. I'll play the rest of the game, but really... I hope they don't waste a spot for something as stupid as that.

I guarantee gamers in the west aren't going to rush out and buy this game, JUST because it has "Dante" in it. That would be like people rushing out and buying a Wii, just because Snake or Sonic were in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

Wait. I know a few people who did.

DON'T YOU EVEN THINK ABOUT IT, CAPCOM! YOU BETTER PUT A LEGIT CHARACTER THERE.

****, I'd rather Itsuki than a bonus character.

Musashi for the 16th :shifty: . I don't see how it won't be him to be honest. If Hisahide was getting his big time to shine I think he would've been given more precedent than just 'oh the last guy' revealed in the closing month till the release, and something just wouldn't feel right to have him playable and Kojuuro not be but eh.

Anyways I'm curious to find out what that blurb means by New Battle System. Hopefully it's something new and not just revealing the rest of the unique character styles.

Well, as you all know, I would love to have Dante in. But not over Hisahide. OR Musashi.

If Dante's in I certainly won't be mad, but I won't be happy either. Hisahide, he needs to get in here, now.

And, well, I guess I know who I'm playing as from the start!

I WILL NOT BE DENIED. Is it really going to be a NEW character though? Couldn't it just be new as in someone that hasn't been announced yet?

At this point, I really don't have the interest to care anymore. The game will be coming out in a month, so now I just feel "gimme the game so I can play it already". If Hisahide really isn't the last PC, sure I'll be pretty pissed, but as I said at this point I just want to play the game.

Sadly though I got a bad feeling about this. Like you Manta I worry that if the character spoken of really is NEW-new then it'll be a bonus character, which would REALLY suck. I'd rather have the most generic boring addition to the cast possible than a bonus character.

Finally, some news regarding a new character. I can't wait! I would prefer Musashi over Hisahide, but Hisahide trumps some bonus character. I wouldn't bank on having a brand new character either, though with Kobapii you never really know for sure.

As for starting characters, I think I'll begin with Ieyasu and work my way from there. He is the main character, and he doesn't appeal to me as much as some others, so I'll get him out of the way. Hope we get a good site update tomorrow.

If it's some how NOW either of the two most popular picks, I'm going to be surprised. But honestly, who else would be more than worthy than those two?

I mean, short of them breaking another Historical boundary to bring about another villainous character possibility (....Danzo....? :hehe ), there's not much else I can think of.
