he made comments about a kids version of VF on the NGC awhile back.. this is no surprise. I can dig it up if you want me to..

ohh, and BTW..

I find it hillarious how they continue to ignore the ps2, even though its the only system they are selling games on. The games they have released on the NGC and Xbox in japan have sold below expectations.. yet they keep annoucing xbox and NGC games and not ps2 games.. makes no sense

I would not care as long as they at least annouced as many ps2 titles as NGC or Xbox titles, but when was the last time they annouced a ps2 title?
They seem to be ignoring the ps2, yet they continuely say the ps2 is their primary system, yadda yadaa.
I will be very surprised if nothing is annouced at e3, especially moreso then on the xbox or NGC

I\'ve been waiting for a good rpg to come to NGC but im not sure Virtua Fighter will be the type I was hoping for.

BTW, mm how do you hold the controller? I find it very comfortable. But then again we do have different hands.

I for one think it\'s great how Sega is focusing on the GCN/Xbox..

The only reason they embrace the PS2 at all is the user-base.. it can\'t stand up to the other consoles graphically.

And it\'s more difficult to develop for.

As for VF-RPG: How can you take this as bad news? Not only is AM2 delivering a potentially stellar game for the GameCube, it\'s the first truly original offering that they\'ve delivered to any newer console. Xbox gets Shenmue 2 (DC port) ... PS2 gets VF4 (arcade port) ... GCN gets brand-new game. And in two genres that it needs.. fighting and RPG!

What do you mean? Are you saying that this VF-RPG is likely a kids game? Pah, far from it.

puh, Sega is a business too.. and a poorly managed one if they keep supporting the consoles that give their games poor sales! developement difficulty or not, surely the PS2 would be the wiser decision financially for an \'exclusive\' game such as this? puh indeed..

Also, on the subject of Sega titles being ported to the GameCube, Kayama said, "We\'d like to fine-tune the GameCube version of Eternal Arcadia so that kids can also play. I think kids should have fun controlling the airship and shooting cannons. I think it is nonsense to directly port Virtua Fighter to the GameCube. For example, we can make it Virtua Fighter Kids to curtail to the lower age demographic.[/b] The game system and fun factor should not be changed so that these players can then move on to the next step with the actual Virtua Fighter.

- GameJam2: Sega announced a secret GameCube project called the "Virtua Fighter 10th Anniversary Special Project". This will be a new game title aiming for low age group, the game genre is action adventure, featuring all characters in the Virtua Fighter series, and a simple control system.

I would rather play an adult version on my ps2 then a kids version on the NGC
