Gaming Rumor: FLCL game coming to 3DS

[KingVamp]

Nacmo Bandai may be working on a Fooly Cooly game for the 3ds.

Hello,

I am currently involved with an action/adventure game based on FLCL (Fooly Cooly) anime for the Wii U. A separate version of the game is being developed by a different team for the 3DS. We started development on both versions of the game in October.

The game will be published by Namco Bandai. Developing for the Wii U has been very painless, and the console's GPU and CPU have made development a very smooth process to create jaw dropping next gen graphics with unbelievable ease. The game's engine was designed to run cel shaded graphics flawlessly at 60 frames per second to imitate the art style and fluid animation of the show.

We have been actively working with most of the old cast of voice actors from the original Japanese show as well as the English dub to return for this game.

I really hope this is true.

If this is true, i would be genuinely shocked for the first time in a while

Take all of my f****** money.
New animation by Gainax, original soundtrack (pillows), takes place one year after the anime, sounds good.

But yeah, I have a feeling it will be really short and generic beat-em-up type of game. Not much else it could be.

If this game sucks I am going to burn down Namco Bandai and Nintendo!

It's the space fucking pirate!

Also, a noodle chapter/episode/stage for kicks.

And pillows better be rocking the soundtrack.

The 3DS is about to get weird.

 

[awssk8er]

I was going to say, "Why the fuck am I the only one who doesn't know what this is?"

But then I realized it's anime.

 

[duffmmann]

Please God be true. I need more FLCL and would definitely take it in the form of a video game.

I was going to say, "Why the fuck am I the only one who doesn't know what this is?"

But then I realized it's anime.

And then you realized that you're a sad, sad man who hates fun

Take my money! TAKE IT! I WILL GLADLY SURRENDER THIS COTTON-BLEND LEGAL TENDER TO OWN A COPY OF THIS PRODUCTION.

 

[Vulpes Abnocto]

Come ooooooonn Firestarter minigame.

FLCL! I made it to episode 2 and fell asleep. Guess I didn't "get it". Cool stuff for those who enjoyed it, however!

 

[Vulpes Abnocto]

Guess I didn't "get it".

Protip: Nobody "gets it". Just enjoy the eye/ear candy.

 

[Creqaw]

I can't wait till I see reviews by people that have not seen FLCL and are like "what the hell did I just play?".

 

[ferofax]

Come ooooooonn Firestarter minigame.

Come to think of it, that IS a neat little mini game. It's like SimCity except backwards--the AI tries to build up a city as fast as it can, and you have to burn things down as fast as you can. And all on that tiny monochromatic dot matrix screen too.

 

[Rockhoundhigh]

It's funny because I was watching FLCL again for like the sixth time a few weeks ago and I was thinking this anime's over 10 years old now, but damn is it good; if this is true than I have another reason to want the Wii U (I've also been listening to the soundtrack nonstop for the last few days ). Pure win all the way!

Come ooooooonn Firestarter minigame.

Yoji Enokido, who wrote the TV series, is writing a completely brand new story for this video game. The game will retain all of the great humor that the tv series and manga were known for. The Pillows reprise their role in providing the soundtrack for the game just like they did for the television series. You can expect both new and old songs.

The game works as an official sequel to the mini series. The video game takes place one year after the events of the tv show, and it will feature real anime cut scenes animated by Gainax.

Throughout the game, you can switch between Haruko Haruhara and Naota Nandaba. Haruko can smash enemies with her electric guitar and drive a vespa scooter through the city. Naota can fight off enemies with a baseball bat and rides a bicycle.

The game is suppose to remain secret, and I'm not suppose to tell anyone about this game. But I felt the need to open the can of worms since many FLCL (Fooly Cooly) fans here have been dieing for a true sequel to FLCL for many years.

This game will be your official sequel.

An announcement about the game should be made real soon with official screenshots and a trailer released.

Thank you.

I must be the only one here, who doesn't think Fooly Cooly's humor is funny. Yeah some episodes are entertaining to watch, but I have yet to laugh at an episode.
