Kemco Games

[Xalo]

Please stop raping the franchise Kemco. The first three on SNES were gold, especially Top Gear 3000, which imo is the most fun racing game i've ever played. Everything in it worked together to achieve something greater.

Most everything that's come out since has been mediocre at best. I can't even count how many Top Gear branded games have been released, but i'd have to guess several dozen. Perhaps the focus should be on quality and not quantity? Kemco seems to be the new 3DO these days.

Seriously, stop it with all the garbage franchises and poor games. Chicago Enforcer? Are you kidding me? How do things like that even happen? People make better games in their high school qbasic classes. Is there even any oversight or quality assurance at all?

Dai Senryaku is an amazing game. But I can't give any credit to Kemco for that, because I don't believe they were responsible.

Instead of divying up your budget to make 10 total crap games each year or whatever, how about you pull together and focus on one or two outstanding ones.

I have to agree, Kemco can do great if they listen to what the community wants. I know that Kemco is not responsible for developing Dai Senryaku VII: Modern Military Tactics but they did publish it, if they are smart enough then there is a Dai Senryaku PSP game in Japan developed by Genki which they should publish here. Kemco has had thier good times and bad times, still to this day Mech Platoon is one of my favorite games (published by kemco though) and did really well in the ratings (8.3 on Gamespot) and then they had their bad times like Chicago Enforcer......well you know what I mean. What I dont understand is why companies makes sequels to bad games and never to good ones (sometimes). I agree what your saying because alot of other game companies do the same. Lets take this example: EA Games vs Blizzard, EA games has a tendantcy to release alot of games in a short amount of time and some end up being good while others end up being just plain mediocer. Now look at Blizzzard, they release about 2 games max in 1 year, but look at the results, all of their games are very good games and getrated very high. Its better to release a few games that are great then alot of bad games because you dont make more money by throwing out 10 bad games in a year.

All comments, good and bad, I read. I appreciate everyones comments on here. We (Kemco USA) have had some success and some learning experiences as well. Stay posted.

I don't know if it's on the right place that I wright... but it's too late now!

That so a pity that you lost the licence of Shadowgate. That is the reason ? Now this game became a poor game on i-pod and telephones portable.
Hoo... Me which thought of seeing a version of it on Game Cube... Sniff...

As much as I hate to admit it, Kemco has kinda gone downhill for me. That changed when you guys localized DSVII, and my faith in you was restored. Still, I am worried about your future as a company...

My fellow gamers, you have got to take all things with stride, games included. As with every publisher, there are going to be hits and misses, just like with every business. For example, lots of people like Dai Sen, lots dont, it just depends. Kind of like the saying, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Yes, there is room for improvement for Kemco USA and you can rest assured that is a main focus here. In the coming year, I think you will be pleased at some of the titles that will be released by Kemco USA. Stay tuned.

Yes, Chicago Enforcer received some poor ratings and even nomination for "worst game of 2005". But in it's defense, in the same catagory were several "high quality", full priced, licensed/franchise titles. It is what it is, and now it is in the past.

And on the flip side, Dai Sen was nominated for "best budget title of 2005". So, you see how there is positives and negatives here?


As I have stated before, I like all comments on here, both positive and negative. Hopefully the negative comments will be constructive ones.

b1wfdz33, Kemco Japan's main business is game accessories, they do not publish too many titles. However that is changing as well. They are releasing Cocoto Kart Racer for the DS very shortly (developer is Neko), aimed at a younger audience. Plus, like Kemco USA, they will be releasing several other original titles this year. Some of which I will be announcing soon. (once a few other things are finalized)

My advice, continue to challenge Kemco USA by wanting and expecting quality games from us and continue to post on the forum so I can continue to read all the great comments.
