Should North America Get A Collector's Ed of NSUNS3 ?

[Leaf_Ninja_1991]

The Wikipedia had sources on the pages. Scroll down. They are there. Some of the links are dead but they used to work before. Why are you so skeptical? You have sources to back you up but you can't find the facts? Doesn't sound very reliable to me. I read your source. It doesn't say much for some reason.


"Edit: nice of them not to announce the north american special edition at all. Don't count on much advertisement since I hadn't heard sqaut about it until you brought it up."

Yeah how nice they prioritize Naruto isn't it? Maybe you should seek me for Naruto Namco Bandai news. Or me be the new moderator here LOL jk

Don't count on much advertisement? How is it going to sell without advertisement? What kind of company wants to sell a product from a big franchise and not advertise it or promote it? Promotions have been done for Ni No Kuni for the collector's edition. This is all beginning to sound really biased coming from Namco.

I'm skeptical because the link they used as a source was dead so it was impossible to fact check.

And it's Namco they sometimes have crazy release strategy's like releasing a Tales game very close to another Rpg that will eat it's lunch.

Besides it's not coming out until March so it makes sense for them to advertise a January release now over it and then advertise more in February.

This is the sort of thing that would have been advertised in Shonen jump but that's not an option now since Shonen jump isn't a print magazine anymore.

It'll likely have adds in Otaku usa and Game informer. What else can it advertise in with pretty much all the other Game magazines dead?

How much more then then that can you except advertisement wise? We're not talking about a Triple A franchise here after all.

Well I'm skeptical about your source because it basically showed nothing.

They sure advertised Ni No Kuni right away and that sold out months ago.

Yes maybe in Shonen Jump Alpha but many people aren't subscribers.

You're forgetting about websites and gaming channels. Its not only about gaming magazines. Ni No Kuni wasn't only about gaming magazines. It was advertised well online on Namco's youtube, IGN, Gamespot and many others. Namco can promote their new trailer of Storm 3 with an announcement of the collector's edition. That would start grabbing people's attention and gaming channels like IGN and Gamespot would upload to their channels and from there multiple gaming sources will find out and advertise on their websites with news articles. The chances of Namco doing a trailer I have no idea because its been a long time since the first Storm game with the collector's edition. So I'm not sure. But it can be done.

The source I posted is the Namco Bandai finical statement that proves the game sold over 1 million world wide. Straight from the horses mouth as it where.

They where doing a campaign to add more stuff to Ni no Kuni based on the number of preorders so it HAD to be done months in advance otherwise they wouldn't be able to produce the extra items in time.

Like I said earlier, Ni No Kuni is their focus right now since it's coming this month. I'm pretty sure once it's out they'll start ramping up the hype for Storm 3.

Looks confusing for a moment. Had to look at it again. You should check for Storm 2 and Storm 1 also if you're still skeptical.

Ok... I'm going to say this but you seem to be more interested in Ni No Kuni more than Naruto lol.

I have another thing I wanted to ask you. I can't upload pictures on a post. Why is that? It shows it uploads then a message box comes up. Saying something that my account hasn't been activated or something. What do you think could be the problem?

[Midori]

It depends on the source of where the numbers come from. The problem I have with Saiyanisland is they where listing numbers with nothing to back up where those numbers where coming from. It makes a big difference if the numbers are from the NPD vs Vgchartz after all.

Oh I care about Naruto or I wouldn't even be on this site. I'm just equally invested in seeing Namco's rpg division do well. The last thing I want is them to decide rpgs aren't worth the effort and for them to stop localizing them.

As for uploading pictures, there is a glitch in the permission settings for the board which makes it not work for normal users. Those settings are beyond moderation's power to change so I can't do much about it. I've asked the higher ups about fixing stuff like that but it's very low priority due to how dead these forums have become.

[Leaf_Ninja_1991]

The thing though there were sources at that time even though they didn't present it on their article but like i said it was the past. I couldn't possibly find the sources again since it was just one time i visited it. That's why I told you to do research instead which you did for Generations.

I understand.

Well that stinks. But how did Josh the one who posted this thread, was able to upload pictures? And he's in the same rank as me "Genin" and similar number of posts.
I can see it's low prioritized. There's not much members on here. And for some reason there's more members or people like on the website I showed you with the updates of Storm 3. Maybe this website needs its own updates but there isn't any. That's probably one of the reasons why there's barely anyone on.

Part of the problem is they took so long to change over when the Hokage room shut down to the current forums that it killed the majority of the community.

Actually John didn't upload any pictures, he just linked to them from outside with the [img] [/img] tags

I should try that and see if it works.
