At WonderCon, Namco Bandai conducted a Q&A session with CyberConnect2 CEO Hiroshi Matsuyama, based on questions submitted by the community.

At 500,000 sold, Tales of Xillia 2 has fallen short of Namco Bandai’s expectations of the game.

“On top and beyond of character balance, what we needed to do was also to ensure that characters who appear to be strong in the original manga and anime series, should ideally feel like a strong contender in the game,” said Matsuyama.

Last week, Nintendo released Tomodachi Collection: New Life in Japan, which was the best-selling game for the week.

Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 3 launched in Japan today and Namco Bandai tallied up the shipment numbers. CyberConnect2′s fighting game shipped 1.2 million units worldwide.

However, not even two major game launches could prevent a 10% decline in industry sales as compared to March of last year.

Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 3 is going to get a bit cuter thanks to a collaboration with Sanrio. A Hello Kitty costume for Sakura will be available for CyberConnect2′s fighting game on April 23.

During WonderCon, Namco Bandai had a Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 3 panel where they revealed more costumes will be available for the fighting game as downloadable content.

While the game starts at the very beginning of the series with the Nine-Tails attacking Konoha, Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 3 quickly skips to the Five Kage Summit arc.
