AW NET Is no MORE!

[Wizard]

Teh Source

 

It was revealed at the Sega Private Show yesterday, along with totally uninteresting games, that Nejibako would be the last game to use AW NET. KenSamu and KOF XI will be offline.

It also means the games won't have secret characters tedious to unlock anymore (like Nowave had).

 

Also, the operators aren't found of KenSamu. SS0 and Supi had less than stellar incomes, and august will be also the month of Capcom/Banpresto's new Gundam Seed. Also, since Nejibako will be released by the end of july and both Imoya games draw the same kind of (restricted) audience, Kensamu is likely to explode before being released.

Also, the control problems of Nejibako seem to have been fixed. The operator think it will be above SvC, at the level of Nowave.

 

 

Sammy releasing 5 2D fighters in 5 month should know better, but then, they're Sammy.

It wasn't fairly successful as they thought it would. Infact it was pretty hertic with Neowave because the only way to gain the hidden characters(Kim, Vanessa, Ramon, Young Geese, Orochi Team) was to play and play, not only that, it would only work with your card. Thats if, if you even bought one. The good side was...nothing really. AWnet only served as a place for online game rankings and accessing bonus material thats originally locked within a game, which is unlockable via bios.
