I think I have about 18 PSP games.

I am sorry, but no Trails in the Sky before Persona 3 PSP = NO!

Actually, I'm not sorry.

Plus, where is the Ys: Oath in Felghana? Ys 7?

I liked Battle of Aces, but I can't agree that it's the number one.

Yes, if I can understand if it is personal opinion. But if it was on a gaming website, I'll have to question it because the fighting game genre will not enjoy the popularity it used to enjoy in the early to mid 1990s ever again. The only way for the genre to have this popularity is to have suddenly all FPS, RTS, jRPG and WoW players drop them to intensively play Street Fighter 4. Not gonna happen.

I prefer King of Fighters to Street Fighter.

Same here. I don't mind playing SF but I get more fired up by the heat of battle when playing a good KOF match.

I used to. And even had a SNK fanboy phase, then Guilty Gear happened. Now, I have learned to respect their respective charms and styles of gameplay.

K' and Kyo FTW

I suck at fighting games. Who the hell has time to memorize combos, let alone develop the skills to actually pull them off properly? That said, Melty Blood is my favourite. Hurray for finally getting an Actress Again PC port!

Anyways, if the fighting game genre was to make a comeback, the Nanoha games would not be the ones to do it. They're pretty basic with not much meat to them. There are plenty more stand out fighters out there.

I got nothing against Guilty Gear, Street Fighter or Darkstalkers (Lilith and Morrigan FTW!).

I just like how varied everyone's moves are in King of Fighters.

...

Plus each character having at least 25 special techniques makes for some really awesome stuff.

I'm exaggerating, but they do have a lot of moves, many of which are chained off of other moves.

@ Raiser: At one point, I had EVERY move and fatality of Mortal Kombat 2 (home edition) memorized.

...When I was eight.

Then I forgot when the Genesis broke.

Talk about support skills, he could take his time fighting a long match for a time up victory or abuse it and mess with his opponents like a trickster to get a few hits in.

If I can sum up his history so far.

Comes from a family of scholars, technically the person who starts the Jewel Seed Incident/Precia Testarossa Incident because of his discovery of the Jewel Seeds. Teacher of Nanoha who holds immense potentional for magic. Soon became a well known scholar over the years after his assistance with the Book of Darkness Incident. He assists the TSAB in matters that concern certain issues like the Jail Incident

Rather just based on my summary. His past would be dull compared to his participation in the MSLN series. He got involved in three different Incidents so far which an extraordinary set of events with each having dangerous if not deadly possiblities with them. For a guy from a scholar family, I think his role getting shafted was a good thing. Or we'd be seeing a somewhat lame 'Indiana Jones' parody here. Most of his interesting history would just be from the three Incidents alone.

Nanoha's backstory was "boring". Even more so than Yuuno's.

No magic, no war, no death.

Sure, Nanoha's dad was in the hopital, but both of Yuuno's parents actually died. And Yuuno grew up practicing magic.

Judging by your post, every scene regarding Nanoha's family and friends was a waste of time.


The point of a backstory isn't to be as exciting as the story actually being told right now. The point is to explain how the characters GOT to this point.

Nanoha's backstory explains how she ended up as the Takamachi Nanoha we all know and love.

But we are less clear about the past that shaped Yuuno, and about his family. We certainly know far less about the Scrya Clan than about the Yagami Family, the Takamachi Family (on Earth and Midchilda), the Testarossa / Hallahoun Family, and the Nakajima / Numbers family.

So uh, with Tokyo Game Show 2011 on, and Namco scheduled to show something of GoD, what do you think we'll be spoilered on this time? Will the remaining characters be revealed, or will it be a run over of the Wolkenritter and the old newcomers?

I would like it if they would made more antagonists for the game.
Here the team.

Heros:
Nanoha, Fate, Hayate, Yuuno, Arf, Reinforce, Vita, Signum, Zafira, Shamal, Chrono.

Most likely Hero:
Vivio, Einhart, Thouma

Most likely Villain:
Material-S,L,D

Unknown (can be fighting due to Poor communication kills):
Amitie, Kyrie, Leise Twins

Since the story mode this time is going to be One big story, and the selected character is going to be their perspective. How are they going to justify fighting each other? Unless they are going the Dark Piece route again.

Please Namco! show something after over a month and a half of nothing.
