Lets email NEC to demand a sequel/online play

[TheTampaCepter]

I was on their site and discovered this email form. Lets tell them how much we love this game and want a online sequel

www.culdcept.com/contact/form.html

Great idea, BUT

a) I can't read japanese - how the heck am I supposed to fill out the form?

b) Are they going to be able to read our English comments?

[TheTampaCepter]

I typed in the large comment field and hit the submit button (longest bar at bottom) it took me to a "mail sent" page. they should have english reading employees with it having a US release. Can't hurt trying though

I couldn't read Japanese if my mother's life depended on it, but here's what I can gather from blindly stabbing in the dark.

The first line asks for your name.
The second asks for your email address. (this has been verified since I got a return response)
I believe ACN has something to do with site registration. (See login at top of screen. ACN has been filled in already.)

So..........yeah. Mail sent.

[Giskard]

I've put in my request! Let's hope they hear us.

[Kepi]

1. Your name.
2. Your e-mail address.
3. Your ACN number (for tournaments)
4. Your ACN name.
5. Choose the third drop-down option, which means "suggestions and wishes"
6. Write something about wanting more of Culdcept here.

Thanks for the translation! If all of our members do this it will greatly help our chances of getting a sequel!

Lets be honest, sequels are driven by sales. And on a whole, sales of Culdcept were not exactly trailblazing. I even think the game came to the U.S. as a 'limited release'. And as far as I know and could discover, there aren't any plans for a Culdcept 3 in Japan yet in console form. Moreover, the NEC game division was sold this past March. See this article:
www.ferrago.com/story/3279

We need to get out there and buy the remaining Culdcept games off the shelves. Buy them as gifts for worthy friends, or for just the helluva it. I personally have 3 copies of the PS2 Culdcept game. I won the first one through a contest and bought 2 more as backups. [Incidentally, I have never bought a game as a "backup" before.]

We need to contact NEC anyway at
[e-mail] or [e-mail].
We should also contact Omiyasoft at [e-mail] too. Somehow, somewhere, a top executive should see the Culdcept fan base as a solid and reliable one. Maybe even www.indexweb.co.jp/english/info/contactTop.php should be contacted. I mean, how could it hurt?

As a last resort alternative for us fans to see another release of the Culdcept franchise is for one of us to actually master the Japanese language, obtain a Board of Directors position with Interchannel, and sway the other Interchannel decision makers of the validity of another Culdcept game.

Great points, if we all work together to email/contact them about a sequel you never know what could happen. One cool thing is at the gamestore where I work we get one in as soon as I sell one. I prob have sold around 15 copies myself just from talking about it to people. At least they are keep sending us copies which in turn are getting more people aware of it. Case in point, a game like Rez is so rare that most gamers will prob never get a chance to own it. So it actually helps our cause that retail stores are still receiving copies. Don't forget to to email those people this sites url so they can see for themselves a decent fanbase for a great game.
