Looks like a beat-em-up. Is Kenshin still so popular that a game like this would sell well?

OMG, awesome!

It's about time too, an import will suffice but a US NTSC version or PAL UK would do nicely.

Maybe this game will introduce a new batch of people to
Rurouni Kenshin?

Maybe becasue IGN wasn't the source this time around.

Well, if I hope they look at Samurai Champoo and improve from there. More character would be nice too. Most 3D Brawlers blow anyway. Since it is a Banpresto, the chances of a State side release is very slim anyway.

The timing looks good to me. The Rurouni Kenshin Complete Edition, a rerelease of the manga, will start in July, two volumes a month, with a total of 22 volumes, if I'm not mistaken.
This might attract new readers as well as rekindle the interest of old fans.

I've seen a couple of gameplay clips from the official site. It's looks pretty cool from watching those clips. Any chance that this be willing to release in the U.S.?

About as good the new Lupin the Third PS 2 game coming over. Or the Appleseed EX game. In other words, I won't get my hopes up.

Here's a link to an ign forum. They posted up some scans from the game. Gameplay looks similar than Way of the Samurai 2 but this kenshin game is more like a beat'em up game. I still think it looks cool and would still play it since I'm a fan of rurouni kenshin series.
