Author Topic: Ryu Ga Gotoku OF THE END truly canned! UPDATE: It's ALIVE! (Read 12098 times)

Hmm... Sega has canceled a lot of events this month for games like Valkyria 3, Virtua Fighter 5, etc...

Now, they are studying about canceling the game and change the release date.

You know, Japan's northeast was almost destroyed by quakes and tsunamis; the game shows Kamurocho completely destroyed...

The managers of the Japanese stars featured in the game also can ask Sega to not release the game anymore (at least, within their celebrities on the game).

This is just a rumor, Sega needs the money from the sales of this game, the release date is just next week... there is no more time, I think.

Let's see what happens...

So it happened. The game was canned... :cry: :cry: :cry:

The game was not completely canceled, but Sega has stated the new release date as "undefined".

I have not finished Ryu 4 yet, so Im fine with this. I only hopes the game cames out some time.

I could see the game being postponed, but doubt it will be canned. It is too far along (aka completed) to scrap.

FIRST OF ALL, STORM IS OKAY! YAY!

Usually I would think it's unlikely to cancel a game so close to completion but...

And I don't think at liberty to go into details, but I've heard of something similar happening with another game because of these quakes too. I think there is a genuine possibility this game may not see the light of day.

Glad you're safe Storm!

Sega should add subtitles to the discs and ship them to america and europe. Every Japan city is the same to us, we don't give a shit.

They should release it, and give a percentage of sales income to various rebuilding efforts.

STORM, I'm reassured and happy to hear that you're ok... then for the game I think the same of Barry, but time is short and even the fiscal year is coming.

thank god you're OK STORM!
regarding the game i think what are you saying is possible and expected.

Glad to hear your safe and sound STORM.

Thanks everyone! ^^ I'm happy to stay here with you :roll:

I think that everyone at Sega still alive and safe. Sega will be affected in terms of money without doubt, sadly. You should know, this is not a good mood to buy games now...

But Sega logistics are really speedy, and probably the game is already on the stores.

Yeah, the game was already printed. It is really unlikely they will cancel it altogether, but they might not re-release it, which is unfortunate, but with good cause.

What bad timing for a game like this...

Anyways, glad to hear you are okay, Storm.

The game will not be out anymore... sadly.

Sad to hear the news, though I still think it will be released eventually. Just not now when people are more concerned with cleaning up their country than buying video games. I could see certain scenes being changed or cut.
