For those who don't know what Darkstalkers is, its a fighting game series that Capcom released in the early 90's which featured battling monsters, such as some of the more well known fighters from the game, Morrigan, and Felicia, as well as a testing ground for some of the systems and changes that would later end up in their other fighting games, such as the Street Fighter Alpha series and Marvel vs. Capcom series.

There are a lot of fans of the series, Yoshinori Ono(the head of the Super/Street Fighter 4 team), being one of them. It's one of his pet projects that he really wants to do, even so much that he created some buzz for it at the Capcom panel at Comic-com back in July, along with Street Fighter X Tekken.

Well it turns out he did some talking with one of the Capcom big heads, Keiji Inafune, and he said that it might be coming, but first the fans have to prove that the game won't be a flop. Apparently, Inafune wants a petition for it with...1,000,000 signatures(dang thats a lot x-x).

Atm, there are only 5000, but Ono says that if it keeps getting signed, and enough buzz is built, Next Gen Darkstalkers might become a reality!

Petition: Darkstalkers petition at Capcom Unity

[hr]

So with that being said, is anyone interested in a new Darkstalkers game, or would like to get into the series? If you do like the series, what to you want to be changed if this gets green-lighted? Would you rather have a 3D version, similar to SF4; or an HD version, like SSF2T HD Remix?

And finally, will you sign the petition?

I've never played one before, but I've heard good things about em. The only one I've ever seen and have been skeptical to pick up is 'The Chaos Tower' for the PSP, read some reviews and got a mixed opinion. Although I have no objection to them making a new one, and if I got some honest and good user comments about the one I mentioned I'd pick it up seeing as it's dirt cheap.

I think either a 3D version like SF4 or MvC3 or a high res sprite game like Blazblue would be a great looking upgrade.

And again, my threads fall into obscurity because there are little to no fighting game players on here x-x

Fighting games are very unpopular here due to the "Mash controler until it breaks" rule.

I know how you feel about both things. I too wish there were more fighting game fans, discussing strategies and technical details and all that junk is great when you get a bunch of fans together. There are plenty of fighting game fans on here, I guess it's just bad timing or something.

Seems the only real common fighting game fans you find here are smahs bros fans...

And I decided I'm gonna pick up Darkstalkers Chaos Tower tomorrow or something. Saw a bunch of reviews and vids and I'm sold.

The only fighting game I've seen mentioned here is SSFIV and most of the times it's just complaining about "HADOUKEN!"

Indeed, I know how you feel, I wish more of that stuff would go on here...maybe we should make an Escapist Fighting Game group or something, if there already isn't one.

What rule exactly is that? =S You mean the whole people don't want to learn to play when they can mash thing?

It's just a sterotypical view of fighting games here.

Keep the reanimated Zombie girl! (Cant remember her name...)
I don't really care what you do after that.

Go try and play BlazBlue with that mindset. People who don't know about fighting games do love paraphrasing Zero Punctuation don't they?

I do play quite a lot of fighting games but the manuals normally explain very little and I get fed up with the tutorial after it insults me for doing bad. (I just suck at them)
