The Kore Gang has, to be blunt, had a development cycle from hell. It was originally going to be created for the Xbox, but the project was eventually moved to Wii. In 2008, an announcement regarding the switch in platforms was made, but there have been relatively few updates since then.

Well, it seems like The Kore Gang will see the light of day after all. According to the game’s new website, it’ll launch sometime in August. The developers will most likely share additional information in the coming weeks, though it’s great to see that the title will be released after all of this time has passed.

Capcom Co., Ltd. would like to announce that net sales decreased to 66,837 million yen (down 27.3 % from the previous year). As for profits, operating income decreased to 5,587 million yen (down 61.8 % from the previous year), and ordinary income decreased to 5,530 million yen (down 59.9 % from the previous year). Net profit for the current period decreased to 2,167 million yen (down 73.1 % from the previous year).

In flagship Home Video Games business, “Monster Hunter Tri” (for Wii) and “Monster Hunter Freedom Unite” (for PlayStation Portable) continued to grow in Japan. And existing products such as “Resident Evil 5? (for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360) and “Street Fighter IV” (for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360) which were released late in the previous year achieved healthy growth in the overseas markets. However, weak sales of some new titles besides the releases of “Lost Planet 2? (for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360), “Super Street Fighter IV” and “Monster Hunter Tri” for overseas were postponed to the next fiscal year significantly depressed sales compared to previous year.


“We’re not making any further announcements other than what NCL announced in Japan.” – Nintendo statement

You can bet your bottom dollar that this title will make its way to North America. It seems fairly obvious though that Nintendo will be featuring Wii Party at E3. It’ll probably receive treatment similar to Wii Sports Resort, when the company dedicated a block of time during their conference to focus on the title.
