Namco Bandai posts $23 million full-year profit

get enslaved! - i got it for supercheap not long ago and i gotta say its a really amazing game - a shame that good games goes to waste - i bought one for my ps3 and one for my friends x box360 (she loved it too)

Expect more if you bring Tales games.

@mellow09, Xbox 360 is rising in sales mostly in the U.S.A. not in the whole world. Plus, the reason why Xbox 360 is a top seller is because most of the old Xbox 360 players are buying the slim.

Seems ridiculous for them to abandon the Xbox 360. It has a massive install base and any game made for PS3 could easily be done so for the Xbox 360 as well. No wonder their sales are abysmal.

To any PS3 user that it looking for a game. I'd seriously recommend Enslaved. It has great gameplay, characters, and story. You could probably get it at budget price now as well.

Is it too much to ask for a "Tales" game??? I'd even settle on remakes right about now.

Enslaved 2 and Splatterhouse 2, please! I want sequald to the 2 best games they ever published!

The thing with Namco is that there best quality games aren't usually best sellers. They'll sit on retailers chart shelves for a week, maybe two, then take up residence on less profile shelving. I think they make up for this by producing a lot of fairly poor games that sell solely on the strength of their names. If they only plan to release one game on 360 this year, does that mean they're pulling 360 development for games they've already announced as being on the machine?

82 games all together for Ps3 psp ds will 3DS why not about xbox360 they just getting one dark souls or right is it bacuase they dont sell much there profits on xbox360 oh dear

Wow that's good news for Sony and Nintendo. So does that mean now can they release all the good games to localize here in the US. I think it's time for them to release PS3 - Tales Of Vesperia (or all of the Tales series) or any good RPG's from Japan. Now hear this Namco Bandai...you want our money, then release those goodie games to PS3 especially TALES OF VESPERIA. The people are demanding for that game. ^_^

dark souls can;t wait for them to publish this i am surprized atlus is not putting this one out also like it did demon's souls for the us... sony did the jp release of demons souls... so kinda shocked on the whole namco bandai releaseing it...

BRING ON DARK SOULS

You know somethings wrong when Ben 10 is selling more than something like Enslaved... Oh yeah, also can't wait for Soul Calibur 5.

I hope they do better this year because they have tons of great properties and they need to much better. I bought two of their games new last year and plan on buying a couple of their games this year too I hope they can find the superior investment.

Namco shafted Tales games outside of Japan. Report profits ;n;

Dayum, that means Tekken 6 has sold more than 4 million copies beating all the PS2 entries to the series!

@Sohereiam Exactly what I was thinking, TOV is still one of the the best games I've played this gen.

I just hope for more Tales games.

Not bad at least most of their games sold a million.

Don't care. I hate Namco for what they did to SPLATTERHOUSE. GO TO HELL NAMCO.

@BahamutZero92. I would like to add Mobile Suit Gundam games to that letter of non-localised releases as well.

Enslaved actually made a bit of a dent.

All we now is an exact release date for Graces F.

Need news on Graces f.

As long as 360 gets Dark Souls, I'm good. At least I won't have to worry about the servers being shut down if I get the 360 version.

Dear Namco Bandai, Please actually publish some of the other Tales games over here, it's absurd how many of them never get translated. Seriously, you guys are on the top of the trope page for "No Export For You" Thanks :P

I want to know who at Namco Bandai looked at the state of the PS3, the state of Japan (Sony's top buyer), psp and ds going into last gen status, then looks at 360's rising sales and makes the decision to focus on ps3, psp, ds, and abandon the 360. That's just odd.

I'm happy too hear Naruto UNS2 sold a million copies,best naruto game out there

Would've made more Scamco if you didn't make all those crappy "Westernized" titles. Here's hoping this year we AREN'T nickel and dimed for ludicrous amounts of DLC and Tales of Xillia true release announcement.

All but abandoning the Xbox 360? But at least they are supporting the Playstation 3 and PSP.

Good, now you have no excuse for not localizing Vesperia for PS3

Wow, all but abandoning the 360? I know they've had some high profile bombs on the console, but this strikes me as a bit of an extreme measure.

Hopefully that new dbz game called '' project 2011 ''

"The publisher said it expects to release 26 new PS3 titles, 25 new PSP games, while Nintendo's DS and 3DS will get 14 and 17 games, respectively" Wow, 82 games. That's a lot. I think Namco Bandai is over doing it.

Tales of Graces F and Abyss 3DS release dates NOW!

yes storm 3 is a must it just needs a little more fine tuning and it will be perfect

@thingta42: They gotta let the anime put some distance between the end of Storm 2 first. I don't think they have enough material to go off of yet.

Lets hope the really good sales of Ninja Storm II will make Namco make a Storm 3

There won't be Enslaved 2 :-(

Hopefully this will make it possible to localize Tales of Xillia and Tales of Vesperia on PS3

Let's hope they can start making some good games.
