1So 3DS is getting something called ''VideoGame/ProjectXZone'', which is like Namco X Capcom, but also throwing Sega in. This announcement is already enough to [[SugarWiki/AndTheFandomRejoiced make the fandom rejoice]].
2----
3[[AC: Project X Zone]]
4* Hm, the rosters...wait is that [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWars Sanger Zonvolt, The Sword That Smites Evil]]!? And he's kicking ass with a ''human-sized'' [[{{BFS}} Zankantou]] on foot!? ''Wow!''
5* Those who dislike the treatment to [[VideoGame/MegaManX X]] [[VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom3 lately]] will also be pleased that yes, he's in along with Zero. However Capcom may be treating him, ''Monolith'' remembers X.
6** New trailer show what X is capable of. He ends a combo in the trailer with a [[Franchise/StreetFighter Shinkuu]] [[KamehameHadouken Hadouken]], as a CallBack to the EasterEgg from the first game!
7*** Slight correction! For everybody ''else'', it'd be a Shinkuu Hadouken. But for ''X'', [[OneHitKill it's just a regular Hadouken.]]
8** Even better: During his part of the trailer, his final attack is the Nova Strike with the ULTIMATE ARMOR.
9** More fuel to the fire, Vile is a boss in the game.
10* Hell, just ''look'' at the [[AllStarCast characters confirmed for this game!]] [[VideoGame/TalesOfVesperia Yuri and Estelle]], [[VideoGame/SpaceChannel5 Ulala]], [[VideoGame/DevilMayCry Dante]], [[VideoGame/{{Tekken}} Jin and Xiaoyu]] and [[Franchise/DotHack Kite and Black Rose]]. The best part? As of right now, ''there are still '''tons''' more to be announced!''
11* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xh5mDkuWOzM&feature=relmfu Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand there's the trailer.]]
12* Enemy NPC's have been announced, let's see who we get to fight... [[VideoGame/StreetFighterIV Juri]]!? [[VideoGame/MegaManX Vile/VAVA]]!? [[VideoGame/ValkyriaChronicles Selvaria]]!? Oh dear, oh dear...!
13* They also introduced probably non-playable allies, and they aren't pulling their punches...[[VideoGame/MegaManX4 Iris]] is announced, cue the fans rejoicing for either [[AuthorsSavingThrow preventing her]] [[ILetGwenStacyDie tragic death]]...or having a modern '''[[{{Narm}} "WHATAMIFIGHTINGFOOOOORRR!?"]]'''
14* The ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B3nQKML06Fk second trailer]]''.
15** Speaking of the second trailer, quite a few people were very happy to hear that X would have "Opening Stage X" from ''VideoGame/MegaManX4'' as a BGM. Also, after the ridiculousness of [[VideoGame/UltimateMarvelVsCapcom3 giving him the "Theme of Adam the Clown"]], it was good to know that this time, [[VideoGame/DeadRising Frank West]] would be given his theme from his first game.
16* And now ''Tekken'' producer Katsuhiro Harada has [[https://twitter.com/Harada_TEKKEN/status/249770305625665537 decided to propose]] for a localization of the game. Athough nothing is concrete, he said that if he continues pushing, his wishes (and the fans') would be realized. NoExportForYou [[AvertedTrope No More]]!
17** Confirmed. Creator/BandaiNamcoEntertainment is aiming for a Summer 2013 release for North America, Europe, and Australia. [[http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/01/21/project-x-zone-coming-to-north-america Read it all about it here.]]
18* [[spoiler: The addition of [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGeneration Ro]][[Music/JAMProject ck]][[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic s]] was certainly received pretty well by fans.]]
19* So this game is fun and all, but- Wait a second, "The Gain Ground Project"? They based an entire level off ''VideoGame/GainGround''? [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7rC4R5BhxM With a remix of its theme tune]]? Dear God, Monolith dug ''deep'' for Sega references!

21[[AC: Project X Zone 2]]
22* There is gonna be a sequel, and [[http://www.siliconera.com/2015/04/12/project-x-zone-2-coming-west-fall/ it's heading west too!]] With some fan faves joining the list too like [[VideoGame/VirtuaFighter Kage-Maru]], [[Franchise/ResidentEvil Leon S. Kennedy]], [[Franchise/DotHack Haseo]], [[VideoGame/Shinobi2002 Hotsuma]], [[VideoGame/{{Strider}} Strider Hiryuu]] and 'villainous' characters actually being playable: [[VideoGame/DevilMayCry Vergil]] and [[VideoGame/{{Tekken}} Kazuya Mishima!]]
23* So... a lot have been clamoring for the return of ''VideoGame/StreetsOfRage'' but Sega has never budged. Well... Axel makes it to the sequel. Cue the old school fans rejoicing.
24* A hilarious addition to roster would be [[Franchise/AceAttorney Phoenix Wright]]. Imagine the amount of fans getting excited for his appearance in the sequel.
25* Another gameplay trailer revealed that ''[[VideoGame/MegaManX4 Sigma]]'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kV7yTJav_0o is in the game]].
26* [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfValkyrie Valkyrie]] and [[VideoGame/SpaceChannel5 Ulala]] are back (along with [[VideoGame/{{Darkstalkers}} Felicia]] returning from Namco X Capcom) and they brought [[Main/TheCameo helpers]] [[http://gematsu.com/2015/06/project-x-zone-2-adds-felicia-ulala-valkyrie with them!]]
27* [[VideoGame/ForgottenWorlds Sylphie]] returns to main the game's shops! And she brought alongside ''customizing stats and abilities''.
28* Wow, it's nice that ''VideoGame/StarGladiator'' gets some love. Not Hayato, but June's pretty nice. But I suppose the biggest surprise is *tap tap* I'm kinda busy he -- [[Advertising/SegataSanshiro S-SEGATA]] [[OhCrap SANSHIRO!?]] Y-you're in this game!? [[JustForFun/TVTropesWillRuinYourLife *is beaten to pulp for editing the article*]] [[WorthIt Segata... Sanshiro... *thumbs up*]]
29-->''Sega Saturn, shiro!''
30** And if that isn't enough, Creator/HiroshiFujioka will reprise his role for the game! Accept no substitute, folks!
31** As for the ''VideoGame/StarGladiator'' villain? ''[[SuperpoweredEvilSide Black Hayato!]]''
32* [[VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening Chrom]] gets his chance to shine along with [[WarriorPrincess Lucina]].
33* [[LateArrivalSpoiler Mechon]] [[VideoGame/XenobladeChronicles1 Fiora]] teams up with her spiritual predecessor, KOS-MOS in ''Project X Zone 2''.
34* Moreover, the inclusion of Creator/{{Nintendo}} characters in general is something people have been clamoring for since Project X Zone 2's announcement. Imagine the excitement when Chrom, Lucina, and Fiora were confirmed and the flood gates were finally opened for other Nintendo and [[GuestFighter guest characters]].
35* VideoGame/CaptainCommando has finally returned after being absent for almost a decade.
36* [[VideoGame/{{Shenmue}} Ryo]] appears and is presumably [[MemeticMutation looking for sailors]].
