Did you ever consider creating downloadable or unlockable Otogi costumes or skins for Ken in Ninja Blade?
MT: We often get requests for Otogi costumes. It would be a fun idea. 1UP: Speaking of Otogi, what’s going on with backwards compatibility for Otogi and Otogi 2? Are there any technical reasons that make those games difficult to port to Xbox? MT: We frequently get inquiries about that. The big problem is that Otogi’s game design makes a hard drive absolutely indispensable. And that goes against the Microsoft regulation that Xbox 360 games be playable by all Xbox 360 users, not just those with hard drives. That’s why it just hasn’t come to pass. 1UP: We’re disappointed that Metal Wolf Chaos never came out in America, since it was already in English, and a seriously awesome action game. What’s the story behind that, and how do you feel about it now? MWC isn’t backwards compatible on Japanese 360s either. You must be cursed! MT: We’re truly grateful for all the interest in our company’s games! From the beginning, we developed Metal Wolf Chaos with the intention of putting it out in market
