Bad Sega/Tetsu Kayama
In a recent interview with Famitsu, Tetsu Kayama, COO of Sega talked a little bit about the possibility of bringing Virtua Fighter to the GameCube. Heres the quote:
"I think it is nonsense to directly port Virtua Fighter to the GameCube. For example, we can make it Virtua Fighter Kids to curtail to the lower age demographic. The game system and fun factor should not be changed so that these players can then move on to the next step with the actual Virtua Fighter." Nice to see that major players like Sega are really helping eliminate those "kiddie" stereotypes. While it's certainly not bad news, hearing Sega say something like that is almost painful. Keep it here for more. http://www.gamecubexl.com/new/dailyn...6671979,93108, Thats not very encouraging of Sega, like XL has said. |
That wasn't a very smart business statement. I mean, he's the friggin' COO of Sega and he's going along with a stereotype that's not completely true. Just because Nintendo itself makes kiddy games doesn't mean that there aren't a large number of people that own a GC that like mature games.

What is so bad about this? Sega is being smart. They know that kids buy Nintendo products, eg. GCN and GBA. Therefore, Sega making a "Kid" version of Virtua Fighter would probably be a good idea. Making the game have no blood, maybe some unrealistic, yet cuddly characters duke it out on the GCN. Oh wait, there is allready a game like that! Super Smash Bros. Melee! If Sega ever makes this game, I assume that it will be similar to SSB:M.

This blows junks out a monkeys arse! Why is sega doing this crap? don't they know that not everyone who owns a gamecube is 9 years old? They must not if they are doing this gosh! :( I might rethink getting gamecube if ppl are only gonna make kiddy games for it. SHAME ON SEGA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And Skies of Arcadia? I didn't hear anybody say anything about that game... |
Is it just me or did he sound sarcastic with that remark?
|
They have made a VF Kids game already for the Saturn if I recall from reading the April Issue of EGM so maybe a sequel to that or something. But the comment still isnt good even though what people say.

Who needs Virtua Fighters when we have Soul Calibur. Hell, even Tekken is better than Virtua Fighters.
