I’m still surprised that Narmiya has an alternate costume in GBVSR. I was like “Alternate costumes? Not recolors, but an actual alternate costume? In an Arc System Works game? Hell has frozen!” lmao
In all honesty, do we really NEED yet another arena fighter? Aren't we overshadowed with those as is (thanks DBZ, MHA, JJK, etc.)? I'd rather it be a traditional one instead...
The reason Itagaki didn't make an arcade version of DOA3 is because arcades were dead/unprofitable (especially in the U.S.) and he deemed it pointless. As for it not being on the PS2? The hardware wasn't good enough compared to what he could do on the original Xbox.
