[Whip Them Otaku]

Well, it looks like we got the release date for the console version to The King of Fighters XIII.  And w/"good online play".

If they keep their word, they could really get their stuff out there. They just have to make good quality stuff for now on.

I would like to buy the game as soon as possible, but releasing kof XIII in the first quarter with mvsc3 and mk2011 is not a good idea.

You know what? I don't think so. I don't think that other games cut much into KoF's sales at all, KoF's sales and popularity issues do not I think stem from the competition, it is just the general perception that people have of KoF and SNK need to really try to change that perception, market it better.

I mean I say this because I truly don't believe that if they just released KoF in the middle of a fighter blight, it would do much of anything to increase it's sales. KoF has it's audience for better or worse, but SNK need to actively change perceptions about the series to increase it's sales, long term.

People care too much about the sales the games do in the first month, but at the end of the day, it doesn't matter what a game makes in a month but what it makes overall. And SNK can increase the latter figure regardless of the release date if they really try to.

I heard this news at Gamespot earlier today/ I absolutely cannot wait, but this came better come out WAY before Marvel vs Capcom 3. I know I getting KOF 13 regardless if it's release the exact same day as MVC3. However, SNK better advertise the shit out of this game. I want to see a commercial for KOF 13 every five minutes.

Really? Its baaad move for SNKP

Cant wait to play the hell out of KOF XIII and I pray for a flawless online netcode....soul of any fighting game today its netcode......but releasing KOF at the same time as  the other "2 American Titans" is a bad move...MvC3 and MK 9 are so hyped here on America SNK release it in December 2010 for better results

Ok, shouldn't I get credited for this and post it on the front page or somethin'?  *lol*

[PureYeti]

Post and done

[Whip Them Otaku]

Thanx.

I also forgot to mention that we're gettin' it on the 2nd Qtr. of 2011.  Either way, it's still bad for the SNK community.  I mean w/MvC3 and Mortal Kombat comin' out the same quarter.  *sighs*  PLEASE, SNK!!!  Make the netcode play well.
