It's very likely Japan exclusive. NJPW has next to no official presence here aside from pirated wrestling games and us alpha nerds knowing the true origin of the N64 AKI wrestling game engine. They must have been mentioned on screen on WWE three times ever.

I'd say there's a chance. We've had costumes that have no relation to anything in the west before that have been licensed. Just depends on the deal.
It's looking like the NJPW guys in Yakuza 6 are going to make it over here at least. |

Also NJPW has been making attempts to expand to the U.S. the last few years, and reports are they are pushing it even more in 2017.

Playing with government money is dangerous. As seen with Curt Schilling and 38 Studios.
But $7 million is pocket change. They should be fine. |

What doomed 38 Studios was them lying about the amount of money needed to actually develop the game and the government department knowing the project was going to fail but didn't tell investors beforehand. |

It comes preloaded with 30 games. That's all you get. The appeal is all about the novelty, because there are way better ways to play all these games.
I was excited when it was first announced but the the more I thought about it, the more I realized it is just a nerdy paper weight. |

I never really got excited about that thing. Most of the NES games I would want to play are available on Virtual Console, cartridge (assuming not super rare), or worst-case I'd just emulate it

Not to mention thee controller has to be tethered to it and the cord is only 2.5 feet long. So you literally have to be sitting close enough to the machine to touch it.

Best reason I've heard for the device's appeal is mainly to go after the older crowd who don't really play video games anymore but still have memories of playing NES games as a kid. Price-wise, the games are cheaper than on the Virtual Console and elsewhere while quality wise, its supposedly the best for repro style consoles.
That is the biggest problem with it even though at least one third party company now sells extension cords/adapters for it. Feels like they wanted something of the Famicom to play a role in its design and took the worst aspect for it. |
