Namco Bandai Working On A Strategy Game Called Namco Wars? (Or Is It Namco Emblem?)

Namco Bandai Working On A Strategy Game Called Namco Wars? (Or Is It Namco Emblem?)In traditional Namco Bandai fashion, the publisher filed three similar trademarks: Namco Chronicle, Namco Wars, and Namco Emblem. All of them sound like a strategy game with Namco’s character library.

 

Yes, Namco made something like that before, but that was a Capcom crossover. Also, Monolith Soft is no longer owned by Namco so they may not develop the title. Given the trademark Namco Wars or Namco Emblem would just be Namco characters, I presume.

    Please for the love of money, they better not choose Namco Emblem, that sounds tacky…unless its some form of currency used for an online marketplace or something…

      There’s an “Emblem of Gundam” strategey game by Bandai for the DS that actually plays a bit like… Fire Emblem

  • Exkaiser

    Gilgamesh confirmed for top tier.

    No matter what it is.

      I think you got the wrong topic…

      • Exkaiser

        You tryin’ to say that Namco wouldn’t put Gil, one of their most beloved characters, into a crossover game?

        And that he wouldn’t be OP?

    Namco Emblem = Fire emblem with Namco Chars? I’ll take it. Fire Emblem is the Shyt!

    I’m kinda hoping for a crossover fighting game personally

    • puchinri

      That could be really, really awesome. (Or really bad… But I hope it’d be incredibly awesome.)

      • raymk

        well at least with a fighting game it wouldn’t matter if its localized or not. Well as long as it comes out on ps3 or wii playing imports is not problem.

        • puchinri

          That’s true.

    • ThunderGod_Cid

      Aren’t they already working on that.
      i.e. Street Fighter X Tekken(capcom) and Tekken X Street Fighter(namco)

  • puchinri

    Well it’d be new if it was strictly a Namco thing compared to a crossover. They certainly have enough characters…
    I just hope that if Klonoa comes into play at all, we can at least see his original look, and maybe even Huepow. (Why are they always so quick to forget it exists anyway?)

  • Rarutos

    I’m led to believe that we’ll never get this in English regardless of how awesome it seems. :(

    Totally disillusioned by Namdai at this point…

  • Darkrise

    A new Fire Emblem Game??? That’d be cool. But this is Namco Bandai we’re talking about here… You know what I mean. It has something to do with not ah *coughnotlocalizingcoguhgracesfcough* *coughjrpgsdontcoughsellwellforthemcough*.

    As long as #Namco #NamcoBandai would NOT put in popular licenses that overshadow their IPs, I’d like to get it.

    Heck, I’d love to see some #Tales, #SummonNight, and #SRW #SuperRobotWars cameos, since they’ve been missing from the US gaming limelight.

  • xNekux

    Super Namco Wars Alpha Gaiden?!

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Blu-Berri/647205537 Blu Berri

    Wrong. Namco made a Namco-based tRPG before called Namco Super Wars for the Wonderswan. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Namco_Super_Wars There was a spiritual successor to Namco Super Wars in the form of Tales of the World: Summoner’s Lineage oh the Gameboy Advance which features Tales of Phantasia characters and a few Namco cameos. Dunno much about it otherwise since I never played it.Maybe Namco Wars would be a remake or sequel to Namco Super Wars?

    • Judo

      Namco Super Wars was the first thing that came to mind. Though I’m going to assume that it’s not related because of the other trademarks.

      • http://www.avclub.com/users/ghaleonq,4597/ GhaleonQ

        Right. Perhaps it’s a sequel or update for 2011-era Namco? The 1st was barebones.

  • Pichi

    If its a crossover of the sort, I hope that Namco brings it over. Hate to get excited if they don’t bother yet again…

  • MemeticRichard

    Lol, before anyone gets too hopeful: No, it’s not gonna come out stateside. :P

  • Yukito

    What it is, is something no one should care about, because chances are, it won’t come over.

    • Confused-chan

      “no one should care about”

      @_@

      I import games from Japan.

      ^_^

        “I import games from Japan.”

        I applaud your bank account.

        • MemeticRichard

          More like feel sorry for it. :/

          • http://www.youtube.com/user/EnvyMizuhashi Garyuu

            It’s meant to be sarcastic, but that works too. ^^

  • Dimentionalist

    *throws self off Burj Dubai in anguish*

  • TetsuyaHikari

    Sooo..basically just a Namco x Namco then…? What’s the point? Just do another crossover title and make it for PS3, and get it over with. This way people could actually play it (you know, seeing as Namco X Capcom is region coded :P).

    • Guest

      That didn’t stop me, I played it with a Swap Disc and a full English patch :P

      • http://myfigurecollection.net/collection/ashgail Ashgail

        I really thank the translation team for doing that.. I still have Tales of Rebirth lying around waiting for a translation patch, but probably it’ll be easier to learn japanese at this point

  • Guest

    Actually this could possibly be a remake or port of Namco Super Wars which came out for the Bandai Wonderswan Color in 2002 which was a strategy game featuring many different Namco characters.

  • ThunderGod_Cid

    Seeing how this will never make it outside Japan, my interest in this game is at zero.

  • Tokyo Guy

    I’m waiting for someone at Namco to wake up and have the intelligence to make a sequel to Klonoa Heroes.
