i feel like Voltron makes that statement a bit more unclear. haven't they used golion since world events bought it? hmm. perhaps there's a separate negotiation there, though.

All things considered, the most likely candidate would probably have been Legendary Defender, yeah. SRW has never really done live-action series outside of the mobile games which don't and will never count. Even their Ultraman inclusion was the anime reboot. So Pacific Rim probably falls under the same umbrella as Super Sentai. Given that Golion showed up in W, it makes sense that they might have tried to get the Netflix series for one of the more recent games.

E: I wonder if they could manage the upcoming Netflix animated Ultraman movie for a more traditional rep of the franchise

Waffleman_ posted:Transformers is owned by Takara in Japan, Bandai's biggest toy rival. The Brave series is about as close as we'll probably get. Being TakaraTomy-owned hasn't stopped them using Zoids multiple times, so it feels like there's got to be more to it than that. Maybe it's Hasbro's involvement making the out-of-Japan releases they've done since V nonviable, maybe it's because the higher-ups see Transformers as more of a going concern they don't want to promote, maybe being a cartoon produced overseas makes Transformers G1 (which is very much the focus of Japanese fan-targeted Transformers material) more complicated to license in some way... or maybe Takara did just say no thanks. It does feel like there has to be a reason that a franchise that's kept a fanbase that long didn't even get a time-limited collab event in 6 years of X-Omega.

Every time I see Nadesico B/C on my roster, I read it as Nabisco and think of delicious cookies and crackers. About halfway through SRW T now. Loved seeing the cameos from SRW V in that secret stage.

Hogama posted:It was originally hoped by the game team they'd be able to cross over the Disney content more than they were able to (like taking non-Goofy/Donald companions to different worlds) but Disney nixed that idea very early on in the development of 1. I mean, think of the fragility of the story integrity if you could have Hercules and Jack Skellington team up! The truly tragic thing about none of the Disney Afternoon shows getting in KH is Greg Weisman is such a kind humble guy he would 100% write an exclusive new Gargoyles story just for Nomura  the Mighty Ducks TV show would be amazing but we're never getting it

They include Battletech in SRW, but it's specifically the Battletech cartoon and all the animations are based on the incredibly terrible off-model 90s CGI. Nicolai Malthus shows up in every other stage before getting owned and swearing revenge.

My guesses would be either Pacific Rim or specifically G1 Transformers, since that also has a bunch of series where American involvement begins and ends at dubbing.

I don't know if they would have gone for Pacific Rim, given that they tend to shy away from live action properties that would require working around actor likenesses. I actually really agree that it was probably Legendary Defender lol

It's extremely stupid that written-off media isn't just automatically placed into the public domain, I think is the main sticking point for everyone. But that's not anything Banpresto can do anything about.

I have a few more too, here you go! Short Alpha Gaiden anecdote Long-form F and F Final development retrospective Lots of really interesting stuff in here, and it all very much debunks the Western assumption that Banpresto dumped Winkysoft after F/Final. It was in fact Winkysoft who parted ways due to their inability to keep up with Banpresto's increasingly unreasonable crunch demands, and Terada always wanted to work with them again if a Masoukishin sequel ever panned out (and it did!). Terada's quote at the end of the F/Final discussion is extremely relevant to all SRW discussions on both sides of the Pacific: quote:I see some people in the replies to my F/Final story thread claiming that the Sega-Bandai merger had to have some bearing on what was happening, but it didn't. You're all free to come up with whatever personal theories you like, but as someone who studied PR sociology back in college, I find it fascinating the way speculation by third parties morphs into the gospel truth as it spreads. (Fun fact: My graduation thesis was about gossip and the way it spreads.)

Thanks for translating these, they're really interesting. Though they're also pretty rough dev stories. As a more recent srw fan, i'm not super familiar with how things were going with Banpresto until like the VXT series so I hope after Alpha things got a bit better for them.
