New Imports 11/15

[AIDS]

New Smilebit game for arcade! It looks kind of like a cross between Jet Set Radio, Top Skater, and 1080.

Robot customization and robot battle in the new Gamecube game Custom Robo. Looks really cool. I think this game was also released on N64. This new one must be a sequel of some sorts.

The follow up to PS2s Shinobi, Kunoichi. Maybe she's Shinobi's sister or something.

Awesome Dragon Quest/Warrior slime bean bags! They really should make things like this here in America. I mean, who wouldn't want to have video game home furnishings?

New shooter for the Gamecube in the style of Ikaruga called Shikigami no Shiro 2 aka Castle of Shikigami 2. The original Castle of Skikigami was released in the US on the PS2 as Moblie Light Force 2. This sequel was supposed to appear on the X-Box, but due to fans demand and bad sales, it's going to be on Gamecube. When you buy it, it even comes with a toy cat!

hey weezer,

any updates on any wrestling games from overseas. I've had a hell of a time with King of Colosseum and was hoping that a firepro game was coming out for Xbox.

Sorry, I haven't heard any new news about any wrestling games lately. But I'm sure someone is working on some. Ususally, my sources of import info don't get info about import games until they're pretty much ready and a release date has been set.

new game with get set radio feel will hopefully kick ass, i loved jet grind radio and spent hours playing that, and due to me not owing an x-box i rarley played jet set radio

giant robots = excellent

kunoichi deserves a try when released, after the shit that was shinobi, anything is better

and i think im about the 12th person to ever own mobile light force 2, reasons people didnt buy it..the cover looks like a charlies angles game and you have to have god like reaction time to beat it
ive only beaten it once , but it is pretty enjoyable as a challenge, worth my $10

Hey jayt11,

Found some new info on a new wrestling game. KCET and Yuke's Entertainment are co-developing an all women wrestling title for the Playstation 2 called WWX Rumble Rose. Work is still in progress, but it should be out sometime this year. Check out the screenshots in the link below. The women look good, but hopefully it won't turn out like DOAXBV in gameplay. Well, Yuke's is making it. So I'm pretty sure it'll be similar to all of thier other wrestling titles.

thanks weezer...man, Yukes doesn't know what it's doing when it comes to wrestling games, unfortunately. Smackdown 5 was a step in the right direction. Firepro is still the king however.

Custom Robo and Kunoichi are both coming stateside, I'm pretty sure (Kunoichi will be released under the name "Nightshade").
