Ike Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 New One Piece game for the 3DS, sounds like it's similar to the previous Unlimited games but set in the New World. Scan also confirms PSP version if Romance Dawn is getting ported due out in August? Hope they upgrade it a bit and make it slightly less repetitive.

-Dem0- Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 (edited) Those screens look good, better than the previous games too but what's this about a Romance Dawn port? it's coming to the 3DS? Some more info: You’ve seen the scan of One Piece: Unlimited World Red. Now you’re probably wondering what this one is about. As described in Jump, Unlimited World Rep is a “multi-action adventure” game. You’ll be able to team up with three others and experience events such as fishing, bug-catching, and treasure-hunting. It looks like additional elements other than battling can be done with four players as well. Jump doesn’t list a release date or price for One Piece: Unlimited World Red. Maybe Namco Bandai will have a more specific window to share when the game is officially announced. Edited May 23, 2013 by -Dem0- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Dem0- Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Unlimited World Red more details - takes place in a location named Transtown - help build up this town through battling and exploration - gather raw materials to help build/grow the town and make new facilities - townsfolk will assist you with hints - assigns unique abilities to each character - Usopp can be a sniper and Franky can create a cannon on the spot Just noticed they used "nakama" in the press release. Better than "Gum Gum PS3" on the back cover of Pirate Warriors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ike Posted September 21, 2013 Author Share Posted September 21, 2013 It's part of a promotion they are doing at the moment. It was pretty useless to me since I have Prime, but oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ike Posted September 30, 2013 Author Share Posted September 30, 2013 Some Unlimited World Red deets: - Trance Town won’t be fully developed from the start- you must cultivate the town with shops and facilities - medicine shop first appears as a boarded up, sign-less building - talk to townsfolk and collect materials to open the shop - you can also open a workshop, museum, restaurant, and general store - material collecting comes from creature and bug catching, fishing, and harvesting plants - some materials are only available to specific characters - when playing multiplayer, specific combinations of characters can perform co-op attacks - arrangements of characters can also perform a “Trinity” co-op attack' Sounds good, didn't know it had a town.

-Dem0- Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Sounds good Yup, there's a lot more than meets the eye, quietly confident about this game. didn't know it had a town Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ike Posted November 5, 2013 Author Share Posted November 5, 2013 New Unlimited World Red trailer. Looks a lot better than the Unlimited Adventure/Cruise games. Apparently Namco Bandai Europe registered a domain for this so looks likely they'll be localising it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ike Posted November 6, 2013 Author Share Posted November 6, 2013 OK. So played the Japanese demo of Red. Only 5 of the Straw Hats were playable and you could pick 3 to take into the stage and you can switch between them at anytime using the touch screen. Both stages played a lot like the Pirate Warrior games. Seems there are character specific actions needed to access secret areas. I needed to use Zoro to slice a gate to get a treasure chest. Not much to say other than it seems to be a mix of the Unlimited and Pirate Warrior games. Hopefully has less grinding and item farming than the Unlimited games.

I dont seem to see any change in depth with 3D enabled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ike Posted November 6, 2013 Author Share Posted November 6, 2013 Is 3D disabled in the demo? I dont seem to see any change in depth with 3D enabled. Completely missed this the first time, but yeah it's disabled. Hopefully just a demo thing, the title screen looks like it wants to be 3D but I do have a feeling it might not feature 3D at all due to performance reasons. I haven't heard anything either way though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ike Posted November 12, 2013 Author Share Posted November 12, 2013 2DS hasn't been released in Japan so that wouldn't make sense yet, so I'd go with performance issues. The game is quite detailed and can have a number on enemies on screen at once. It doesn't say why on the page though so it's just speculation.

Dcubed Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 Performance issues or 2DS influence? The 2DS hasn't even been announced for a Japanese release yet, so it's obviously a performance issue. They obviously just wanted the extra GPU power for graphics (which would explain why it's graphics look so surprisingly good). It's not the first 3DS game to not support 3D at all (some other examples outside of this and Pokemon X&Y include Nightsky, Hydroventure Spin Cycle, Cubic and Senran Kagura) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
