But in the end I didnt use it. anyone wants it, go for it.

Imagine if Megaman Universe was an X sidegame? how much socks would that rock? (although the lack of an "X" in the name kind of says otherwise)

Personally, Im more tired of the copious amounts of Cameo, mainly because it causes other potential Megaman cameo candidates to get the shaft.

« on: May 11, 2010, 09:07:09 PM »it's called "[tornado fang]ing AWESOME"Fixed that typo.
from a distance, with bad quality, you could swear they were real people.
Also, not only were the models very detailed, but their movements, (especially noticed this in Megurine) they moved very naturally. like a real person, and their clothes responded mostly by real physics as well.

Im having dejavu. I could SWEAR we had a conversation like this before.
Anyway, Didnt Inafune say, however, that the next Megaman game would not be an X game?

Anime & Manga / Re: Yugioh 5 D's
« on: May 11, 2010, 07:38:36 PM »It was mentioned like 2 or 3 times in the very beginning of Duel Monsters, I believe up the duel between Yugi and the fake Kaiba. That duel was I believe the only time (in the Japanese version) that Kaiba sort of acknowledged something like the Heart of the Cards, or rather, he was wondering if it could be possible (his BEWD's attack simply vanished when Yugi was on the brink of being defeated and Yugi thought he heard Kaiba's voice cry out to him).Well, browsing up on the Jap. Yugioh, "Shadow Realm" was never even EVER said in Yugioh, but explicitly CREATED by 4kids to censor death.
The original basic meaning of the term was meant in the way that cards had a soul, which was pretty much resolved when you learned that cards like Black Magician, Black Magician Girl and Blue Eyes White Dragon were based on a fusion of one's Ba and Ka.
In a nutshell, the term does exist in the original Japanese version, but 4Kids just milked the [parasitic bomb] out of it from start to finish, while in the original, the term itself is only used a sparse number of times. It's what they always do, they take a look at like the first 2-3 episodes and based on what they've seen and heard, they base their entire dub concept on, hence Kaiba, Ryo and Jack being total dicks in the dub despite more being antiheroes. 4Kids turned Heart of the Cards into some bullshit reasoning for major characters having incredible draw luck at the right moment.
Or at least, it was never actually NAMED.

Zx definitely lets me spin saber bosses to death, something Zero series does not. and I do not recall all 3 slashes actually hitting the bosses in the Zero games... I think the second slash activated the damage barrier...

Anime & Manga / Re: 4Kids being "acquired" by 3rd party?
« on: May 11, 2010, 07:13:46 AM »
I actually do, considering they ruined my Saturdays by buying out the Kids WB slot, which while it was still mediocre till then, at least wasnt 4Kids TV on a new channel, which is what it became.
Also, I really have to wonder how that works. How is it they are doing Kai, when Funi did DBZ? one would think Funi would get it.

Ok, Im not going to make a new topic about this, so Ill just legendary necropost the old one, since its relevant to 4shits' eventual demise.
LAST TIME, ON DRAGON BA- Er- 4kids news, they were loosing much money.
This time, they are starting to get bought up by others.

and the document itself
http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/58592/000095012310046489/c00629sc13d.htm
Maybe this is ONE more step towards the eventual COMPLETE buy out and or management change? I sure damn hope so. Al Khan's GOT to go.

The 4Kids Entertainment licensing and broadcasting company has announced in its 2010 First Quarter financial results on Monday "that it had received a non-binding indication of interest from a third party to acquire 4Kids." According to 4Kids, the third party expressed interest in acquiring the company for a premium over the market capitalization of its common stock. However, 4Kids cautioned that there is no assurance that a deal will go through.http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2010-05-10/4kids-reports-3rd-party-is-interested-in-acquiring-it
4Kids had retained the financial advisor Montgomery & Co. to help evaluate its strategic alternatives in 2009. The company's Special Committee of the Board of Directors was planning to consider options "including, but not limited to, asset sales, alliances with strategic partners, and/or a sale of the Company through a merger or other corporate transaction."
For the three months ending on March 31, 4Kids announced net revenues of US$4.2 million, compared to US$9.3 million in the same period in 2009. Its net loss was US$3.5 million, compared to US$2.0 million in the same period in 2009. 4Kids acknowledged that it faces delisting from the New York Stock Exchange since its market capitalization has been below the US$15 million minimum that it must maintain.
The company's stock price
closed on Friday at US$1.10, but it hit a high of US$1.25 on Monday morning before settling at US$1.15 as of 12:20 p.m. EDT. Its current market capitalization is roughly US$15.62 million.
In the past, 4Kids adapted Pokémon, One Piece, Tokyo Mew Mew, Kirby: Right Back At Ya!, Shaman King, Sonic X, and other anime titles for the North American market. Its current properties include Yu-Gi-Oh!, Dinosaur King, and Tai Chi Chasers (Tai Chi Senjimon) from Japan, as well as the card-game-based Chaotic franchise from Denmark.
Thanks to dynasore for the news tip.
Update: Prescott Group Capital Management reported in a mandated U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filing on April 30 that it acquired 2,414,209 shares of 4Kids Entertainment. These shares represents 18% of the outstanding shares of 4Kids' common stock
. According to Prescott, 4Kids is "undervalued and represented an attractive investment opportunity." However, Prescott added that the investment was "not made for the purpose of acquiring control" of 4Kids. Source: DealFlow Media
