If Ikagi's doing this all for fun, maybe he should have "Fun" with DoA4... you know add in the insane amount of costumes, make good tag team moves, maybe include volleyball as an answer to Tekken bowl... you stuff that would make DoA itself more fun....
but who cares, I'll buy DoA Extreme Beach Volleyball because my friend just made me watch 7+ hours of Kenshin and this game seems like great revenge, no?
also if I had a Japanese PS2 I'd get DoA Tennis, which I'm sure is like Mario Tennis only not...

A nonserious volleyball game with lots of sex appeal...what the hell is there not ot like?
No, seriously. I'm tired of all the arguments about how Tecmo isn't a "serious" company and can't do a "serious" game. Serious, serious, serious...good lord, this is videogaming we're talking about here, not freaking political theory! Has Tecmo ever released a serious console game? (Hey, if Unison is any indication, better not hold your breath.)
Look, sex appeal has been an integral part of fighting games ever since Mai Shiranui, and no one's claiming that these are "normal" women. So I say cut the stupid pretensiousness and put the dang lovely ladies in the game. If it's a good game, the eye candy just makes it better.
Too bad the guys won't be in it, though. I mean, imagine the kind of spikes Jann Lee could do.

For example?...
Dragon Knight 4- tough strategy game, released on many platforms, including SNES(H-free, of course).
Eve Burst Error- pretty confusing to play without a walkthrough, but the story is very good. Spawned two sequels and a prequel.
Love Escalator- Pretty straightforward(date one of three girls over and over again to hook up with her at the end), but the story is decent, and all the sex scenes are animated.
Dragon Knight 3 aka Knights of Xentar- Just as good as DK4, this one's an RPG.
I heard Divi-Dead is good too, but I haven't tried it.
Nice one mate. I'll check these out, hopefullly they'll restore my faith in the art of hentai

That's been my philosophy on the DOA series in general.
Then your missing out and letting the hype on bouncin breasts detract from solid ass gameplay
Pfft, DoA's gameplay is as solid as those boobs it has!
Um, actually, as a fighting game fan, I think DoA has very solid gameplay. Personally, I think DoA (2 and 3, not the first one) is better than Tekken. I have tried to get into Tekken, and I can't. I'm not hating on it, but this is my opinion.
I agree, but I'm a huge DOA fan personally. It's probably my favorite 3d fighter, Virtua Fighter and Soul Cali are good though. ^_^ I just prefer Doa's fun, speed and gameplay.

I wouldn't be able to tell the difference between DOA 3 and 2 if it weren't for the backgrounds. I think the whole " other systems can't handle it " thing is a load of bunk, especially after buying Resident Evil for the Game Cube.
One of the reasons that Resident Evil has so high poly characters is because it doesn't have backgrounds. They're moving on pictures, not 3d backgrounds. Makes it a bit easier.
Like I said, I've never seen the Gamecube topped out, I'm not certain what it could do. But DOA3 couldn't be done on the PS2 without butchering and massacring it.
And as for the characters gaining polygons, I guess you should have looked at the differences between the picture Rid posted and I posted of Leifang. If you can't see them, you might want to get your eyes checked.
Anyways, Team Ninja does all their ports themselves and right now they're working on two games and in the pre planning stages for the third, so don't hold your breath for the gamecube version of DOA...
I'm simply being objective, If they had to tone down Vf4's character models to get them on the ps2 they're going to have to knock Doa3 character models back to their Doa2 incarnations to get them on that machine. Then it really would be Doa 2.5 and then.. what would be the point, ne?

who knows. maybe. I don't think it'll happen, it seems to be that Tecmo is done with Doa3 and moving on to other things. But you never know.

Sorry but if doing something like that would ruin a game, then DoA3 really must suck ass.
And BTW I've seen the arcade VF4 and the PS2 version's character models look fine, if not better. So I can't see the wrinkles on their fingers. Why would I want to? Who cares about the 100 polys Jacky lost on his package?
Oh it would still be fun on the other systems, but things have really changed between Mario Brothers and Mario Sunshine... Yes games need great gameplay to keep going, but on the other hand if you made a new mario brothers game with 8 bit graphics to go back to the roots. I think that a large number of gamers would be appalled.
I think that now presentation and gameplay are both important and thats what alot of the huge gaming companies have been going for, Sega, Konami, Squaresoft, Tecmo... If the gameplay is good, it'll be a good game, however, I think that a game like Xenogears shows that presentation, mood, music, all of these things come into play when you make a new game and really complete the experience. So if I was a game producer the idea of butchering something I worked very hard on to make cinematic and beautiful and to create a mood for would be a bad thing. Yes, so they toned down the character models only a little for Vf4, but I think it would be a much greater change for Doa, because whether people acknowledge them or not the number of polygons has increased drastically.
DOA is as much about gameplay as it is about style and graphical flare. It's a full package and they worry about things that SNK worried about, great gameplay will get you so far, but if you want people to love your characters, then you have to give them style.

I still don't think it'd have to be toned down at all for the GCN. And I do see the difference between DoA2 and DoA3, DoA3 does look much nicer. But seriously, I think it has everything to do with money and not the machine itself.

What makes you so sure it will happen? All of Team Ninja's current games are only for the XBox, they've said you'd never see the games on any other system and pretended like there was techincally reasoning behind it, and I'm pretty sure they've been paid off by Microsoft... now why would they port DoA to other systems? because you don't have an XBox? Is Itakagi going to swallow his pride and show his game wasn't as advanced as he pretended? Maybe then he'll say he's sorry about the Tekken 4 comment too..

Well no duh it sucks ass, it is a DoA game (aw, don't yell at me, I kid DoA because I love! but seriously it sucks ass until they make a good upgrade disc)
speaking of upgrade disc... why would you want DoA on any other system then the Xbox? Maybe the Gamecube could do the same graphics but you'd have to buy a whole new game to get the 5 stupid extra costumes in the Japanese version and they'd add in a few more for the hell of it, it would balloon out of control!(DoA2 DCUS, DoA2 JPPS2, DoA:LE JPDC, DoA2 UK, DoA2:HC USPS2, DoA2:HC JPPS2)
and yeah I know DoA3's upgrade disc left out a lot from the import versions move wise, but that's something they can fix in DoA4, since I'm assumng they only left in hooks for the costumes not thinking they'd add other things.

I'm a little worried the fact that X-box didn't do so well overseas and that it ALREADY has had a massive price drop that it'll probably die sometime, despite how "great" it is. I'm not saying it isn't good, and it is nice that you can put you own music into games and stuff, and that you can just upgrade a game with a disc, but seriously, if X-box isn't selling as well overseas and everything, why wouldn't they want to port their games so maybe they'd actually make more money on the games! Like I said, I'm not gonna buy an X-box just for those 3 Tecmo games.

In Japan it's looking pretty harsh. ~_~ However it's doing pretty well in America and in Europe it's selling as well as the PS2. Considering Microsoft never expected to do well in Japan quickly I don't really see that as a loss. They're pumping 2 billion dollars into their online plan, so really, it just looks like Microsoft is setting themselves up for a big loss before they get a big gain. It's been gaining more acceptance lately, so over time maybe all the Xbox hate will slowly fade into the minority. Then again, it's always been kind of trendy to hate Microsoft. ^__^
Anyways, I still don't think that it's remotely possible on the PS2, I own lots of PS2 games, ^__^ lots of really impressive ones like FFX, MGS2, DW3, VF4, ... hey wait... why do all of these games have huge numbers... ¬_¬ well anyways.. ^_^
The DOA environemnts are very impressive, I think thats probably the biggest reason it couldn't happen, stages like Lorelai... Lorelai is a giant really really detailed castle... you start out fighting on a huge marble balcony and you can see another huge castle on a hill/mountain across from you... and then there is a large tower just a short ways away and another large pair of buildings on a mountain off to your left. ^_^ you can see /inside/ the castle your near and if you get knocked off the ledge you fall down (and batts fly past) to the next level, with lots more polygon's, but all that stuff outside the castle is still visible. There are tons of lights and lighting... and if you get knocked down again you fall all the way to the bottom of the stage where there is a cannon and you can still see inside some gates to the inside of the castle. If you look off the edge you can see that there are buildings underneath you and and you can see that the water at the bottom of the stage not only reflects the lights on the nearby bridge, it also moves. =P And then there is a huge suspension bridge that is actually built with polygons. ^____^ and there's no loading time moving from place to place, it's all instantaneous. The fact that the environment your fighting on makes Vf's backgrounds looking silly is bad enough, but the fact that the environment that your fighting in has a background that has very high detailed and quality models of other castles, bridges, mountains and whatever else. ~_~
I just don't think that the PS2 could handle Lorelai. I'm not gonna comment on the gamecube, cause I really have no idea just what that thing can do. ^_^
