Why do you guys think the game won’t be a hit in Japan?

If you can give me 100% accurate sales data from every retailer across the globe including internet sales, I will personally lick your balls. If you fail you have to post nude pictures of yourself on the internet and they have to be taken by me personally. And since you will fail, shall we schedule an appointment? Friday would be good for me.

Who cares about fucking numbers and scores, its a good game. The end. Why are you going to let people tell you how to feel about a game?

I’m not particularly concerned what the arcade cabinets used. First, it wasn’t released in the arcade; fairly ridiculous observation regardless. Second, when every console this was released on has more than two buttons, there’s absolutely no reason to require combo presses. It’s pointless and smacks of laziness. The Wii nunchuck + wiimote controls were perfectly done, however the minigames require the wiimote-only control setup.

Further: Sega is nearly a 70 year old company. The levels pay tribute to a number of franchises, but the characters do not. Just sixteen characters when the game is based on your own IP? They don’t have to pay for licensing on *anything*! They could’ve easily reintroduced double that number. Why stop with Alex Kidd and Gilius Thunderhead?

Finally: I stand by recent. Nights: JOD, S&tSR, Jet Set Radio Future on the Xbox and Samba is about to be released. So, out of 16, 4 aren’t ‘recent’ and only 2 truly harken back to Sega’s days of success.

As far as I’m concerned, Sega missed an opportunity for an easy reintroduction of a ton of franchises. What’s idiotic about that? Outside of Sega fanatics, this game’s metacritic scores place it at about ‘average’.

Rumors are posted as rumors, I clarified that this is VGchartz. I don’t know what the huge problem is here. The only person that has a problem is you.

Anonymous, we don’t want it to be like Brawl. We want it Fighters Megamix style with the Superstars and Sakura Shinguji.

@Everyone: Fine, keep linking to a widely disliked and always inaccurate website. Don’t worry about trying to be a credible website as you already post rumors from anywhere they come from.

@psv: You’re an idiot. Virtua Tennis, Virtua Tennis 2 and Virtua Tennis 3 all used two buttons. Take a look at the arcade cabs that they run on for proof.

Most of the characters are not exactly “recent”.
NiGHTS: 12 years old
Ulala: 9 years old
Beat: 8 years old
Samba de Amigo: 8 years old

The only really recent characters are AiAi and Shadow. And we shouldn’t complain about his inclusion since he is really popular among kids.

Also, I don’t really yearn for a Sega Smash Bros game. I think people want too much from Sega Superstars Tennis once they compare it to Brawl which is an unfair comparison as Brawl had a much higher budget. This is shown on how average the review scores are for this great game.
