I will be surprised if Bomberman goes anywhere after its repackaged Super R for Switch.
Until then, RIP in peace Bomberman.

Shit game, shit taste. The fuck is wrong with you?

>>379517236
Do you not know that Super R blew their expectations out of the water?
I'm probably exaggerating a bit, but it basically sold more than all the bomberman games in the last 10 years combined.
It sold so well they actually decided to fix it and make free content for it, and this is Modern Konami we're talking about.
Still not worth the whole $50 but it's better than it was

>>379517696
Best damn rail shooter series there ever was.

Can I put down Vanquish even though there was only ever one game?

Also a new rail shooter by Tetsuya Mizuguchi in the vein of Rez and Child of Eden would be the shit too.

Unlike most people that plays video games I'm not that obsessed with endless sequels. Most of my favorite series I'm okay with dying or being dead.

It is a little bizarre that Bubsy of all things is getting revived, though.

There's no hope

>>379517943
Oh fuck, forgot about this series. Fucking shame IS won't make another one because they don't know how to make it sell without inserting some waifu bullshit into it.

The wrong series died.

Road Rash is dead forever, but seeing how EA has been doing from a long time I'm actually happy, let the dead rest in peace. inb4 someone shilling Road Redemption, it's shit

Metal Slug up to 3, 5

Leona's DLC. Not very good DLC either, just a combination of existing character perks.

You think with Sword Art Online Namco would have considered bringing back .Hack that isn't shitty spinoffs or even releasing their games as a collection on current systems. It would seriously bring them easy money if it were to happen.
