Tecmo Koei didn't even bother announcing it for English release before releasing it on PSN... its not anywhere on their website, nor did they ever send out any kind of press releases or anything. It just randomly was put up.

Tecmo Koei, the masters of marketing.

I don't have a problem with this, really. If it was a brand new game maybe, but this? No.

Assuming the entire point of not marketing it was to cut costs, I highly doubt they're going to bother making a physical version.

It doesn't cost a thing to email some websites and say this is coming in two months. Doesn't even have to be a paid press release. Nah, this is just another example of TK having no respect for the franchise and no interest in communicating with its fans.

Just let NISA handle the whole thing again...
