Looks Pretty cool, haven't seen anything Digimon related in the west in a long time...

Woot!

Digimanz!!!!

Awesome! It has been way too long since there was a digimon game out. Though I am disappointed it is not a story based game. Will still be cool.

Reminds me a lot of the digimon Rumble Arena Games...hoefully if this game does ok maybe well see that new vita digimon game localised...

Find it surprising the lack of a PSV port of this game. Would find more sales ground in Japan over both the PS3 and X360 version, but also a better way to get interest in the brand on PSV before the new proper Digimon launches.

Dont think this game is aimed at japanese players, was there even a jp announcement for this game? Considering the original announcenment was for NA & EU this is probably namco's way of gauging interest in the franchise in the west. Not even take them a year to release? Was obviously very cheap/easy to develop

Yeah no JPN release date now but there is no way they will not launch this in JPN on PS3. There is like a Digimon push being made atm, this game will def hit JPN.

Gauging interest with the dwindling support of the PS3 and X360 does not really make any sense when their only other Digimon game coming (and fantastic looking it is) is on a completely different device.

I am sure it was cheap/ easy to develop but using 'a year to release' as a reason for this makes no sense. GT6 was released like 4 months after announcement. Same for Mario 3D world. There are games with short announcement to release periods that are of a high budget. I am pretty sure Prope were put onto this after their 2013 Digimon game was released.

They arent gauging interest for the vita title but the franchise itself. Dont think they have any plans of ever bringing over that vita game(at least for now) but this maybe the push for them to start releasing more games on home consoles.PS3/360 is still the biggest user base for home consoles right now. They wont do it on ps4/xbone because that would obviously cost them a lot of money than they'd like especially considering there hasnt been a digimon title released here in years that would just be an unnecessary risk for them, ps3/360 release makes a lot of sense.

The Vita title (and 3DS title) are the only that fans in the West are actually asking for.
The PS3 and 360 are dying off: its the wrong consoles to gauge interest in with for the franchise. But fair enough, i cant argue with your thoughts.

Hopefully this is playable at TGS. i will let you know how it is.
