Sega planning something soon for VF5...

feck and shiny battle of the trolls who is going to win?

 

No need for a battle Matt, if Shiny doesn't appreciate good games that's his business.

 

HOLY SHIT NEW FUCKING MONKEY BALL DSVFSFDWRAADSFSADDF

 

maybe there's a temporal flux anomaly in the time space continuum

 

Based on this event, I disagree.

 

We are all jumping to conclusions. The announcement for super monkey ball game is just that.

They still will have there announcement for VF5R later. Honestly this year is kinda crowded for fighting games. VF5R needs its own spotlight, around Q1 to Q2 of next year. Not to say that it can't stand on its own 2 feet, but I would rather it have more sales and attention than battle it out with a sea of pretenders. I still believe it will happen and yeah it will probaly be ver c. or the final version will see.

 

There's not really any base to make a FT out of VF5, doing it for VF4 worked because Evo was a massive success in arcades. A potential Version C might happen but probably won't have any gameplay changes if we're going by Sega's pattern.

TBH, they pretty much have to release VF5R this year if it's going to have any relevance, otherwise they could just skip it and move on with VF6 (that is, if they're going to make a VF6 but I guess they pretty much have to).

 

Yeah I think this is just another Final Tuned kind of thing, after VF4EVO the next console release was VF5 so I think at the rate it's going now we are just going to go from VF5 to VF6 for console release. Also keep in mind for VF5 we had version B already for ps3 and we don't even have that now for R!

 

VF5R is not coming. Sega of Japan already confirmed this.

And there are no words of a 5FT being worked on. VF5R was being developed during VF5 version A's development. Before VF5 even debuted at the arcades they were working on Taka-Arashi's model and move-list. Everyone in Japan had gotten word of VF5R (though it had no title at the time) during the first week of VF5 being out in arcades.

There are no hints at a VF5FT and nothing close to VF getting another port to consoles.

It's seemingly over.

 

What's funny is that when people found Monkeyball references in the source code, I bet it really was an error. As in, !@#%& so much for a mysterious countdown when it's freaking obvious what the result is going to be!

So to cover up the mistake they changed the source code to reference other games in a seemingly random way...sorry Sega but you are LAME. It's Monkey Ball to begin with, it's a Monkey Ball error that you made, and it's Monkey Ball that you announced.

 

SoJ didn't confirm VF5R wasn't coming. They haven't said anything.

So I leave with this poem.

I took up my Eileen
Then Sega bragged abroad
About some wench called Aiai
And how Eileen's overboard

They screwed her
They mangled her
They locked her up inside
They stole from her
then did with her
even smacked up her behind

So I took up Blazblue
To win Eileen true
And found what I did with Akira
I could do with Ragna.

 

I spoke with SoA, SoE, and SoJ employees about 5R before and during the Facebook campaign.

Both SoA and SoE employees said that SoJ controls the Virtua Fighter brand and any chance at porting 5R would be decided by SoJ. In fact someone from SoE told me that they approached SoJ about porting 5R themselves and SoJ said no. So I then spoke with someone at SoJ who is familiar with the AM2 team and he said that VF5R on consoles didn't even make the drawing board at meetings in Japan.

There's not even an international version of 5R at the arcades.

 

Funny how everyone is up arms about an announcement that was obliviously unrelated to the one Reno gave us.

The announcement we care about still hasn't been made guys.

 

Just couldn't let this poem go unnoticed, I have a thing or two for poems.

 

Aksys is not without faults either. Blazblue is not on sale here in Europe.

 

Aksys does not have distribution rights for Europe. Only North America.

 

Well why didnt they get them?

 

long story short, arcsys' high ups didn't think it would be profitable.

originally the plan was to make both the ps3 and 360 versions completely region free, but it was a restriction i believe put in place by microsoft that prevented this from happening.

still, the ps3 version is region free, so if you're in europe you can still import that version.

 

Even namco bandai doesn't have publishing rights in europe. It's why sometimes EA and Ubisoft publish some of their games.

CONSPIRACY THEORY: QUESTIONS LOOM LARGE

Is there some connection between Yu Suzuki licensing rights vs Microsoft Exclusive and Non Disclosure Agreement with Sega and Virtua Fighter 5 online and Yu Suzuki finally leaving Sega and taking his intellectual property with him and the secrecy over VF5R for consoles and the silence at Sega about the non disclosure exclusive agreement with Microsoft and Yu Suzuki's Intellectual property claim on Virtua Fighter and the law suits all over the place by Sega[See Sega Sues BeatTribe] and the restrictive sales strategies of the VirtuaFighter Hardware and Yu Suzuki being ousted and the Microsoft Money given to Sega to Make a online version of VF5 in exchange for a 5 year exclusive on the online version of VF5 and the fact that Sega is running out of Money [See Sega hits rock bottom] and the fact that Yu Suzuki feels screwed and he wants his Intellectual Property rights to Virtua Fighter because he's starting a new company but, Microsofts Exclusive Non Disclosure Agreement prevents Sega from saying anything or doing anything about a VF5R console release in North America because the Non Disclosure Agreement for the Microsoft Live version of Virtua fighter 5 really robs Yu Suzuki from what he feels he is entitled to and after Years and Years of negotiation between Sega and Microsoft, Sega finally decided to give its hardware division to Microsoft[To Thwart Sony] formerly called Sega Dreamcast, Now called Xbox 360 and that there was a secret deal to exclusively license Virtua Fighter 5 to Microsoft all along, which secret deal really caused the final rift with Yu Suzuki and Sega leading to Sega's absolute refusal to say or do anything about VF5R on the consoles thereby leading to the
notorious and nefarious Monkey Ball Diversion and Deception[/size] in an absolute lame attempt to leave the VFDC community in an obfuscated state with respect to the true status of why there is no forth coming VF5R console release all the while trying to conceal the fact that there is a threeway FU campaign between Yu Suzuki, Microsoft and Sega as to who really owns the VF intellectual property, but at the same time keeping the VFDC Fans at bay by cheap
Monkey Ball Diversions and Deceptions[/size]
knowing full well that simple fact the Namco's upcoming release of Tekken 6 and Team Ninja's upcoming release of DOA 5 for the PS3 will bring the ultimate light of scrutiny on the Microsoft
Non Disclosure Agreement, and the abject abuse of the VFDC fans
with the whole Happy Bingo Century Hoax, But not anticipating that the whole FaceBook uprising would lead to
the outting of the Sega of America's COO's hidden Agenda to
get back at Sony over what happened with the Sega Saturn and that the Monkey Ball Diversion and Deception[/size] Would come to a full head when the VFDC community finally caught on to what was going on about the fact that there will be no VF5R for consoles right now because there
are major legal disputes about who owns the rights to the Virtua fighter Franchise[/size]
