Dead or Alive: Dimensions fighter coming to 3DS photo

Earlier this year, when Tecmo Koei announced it was bringing a Dead or Alive game to the 3DS, I'm pretty sure we were all thinking the same thing: "Please don't be some creepy gift-giving beach romp sim game." Well, it's not -- it's called Dead or Alive: Dimensions and it's a fighter, and Famitsu has the first details.

Well, I use "details" very loosely. Characters confirmed are Kasumi, Ayane, and Hayate; they'll fight near a mountain and in Kyoto. So that's confirmed. As far as gameplay is concerned, Famitsu didn't spill those details only hinting that it may not play like a typical 3D fighter.

It certainly looks damned good; the screenshots Famitsu has posted look gorgeous for a handheld. Imagine that in 3D! Tecmo Koei has already announced its line-up for next week's Tokyo Game Show, and it didn't included Dimensions. But if it's there, we'll find it. Stay tuned.

You mean Dead or Alive is supposed to be a fighting game series? You'd never know it from all beach party shit.

God Damn I think I'll have to get me a 3ds. I skipped the ds since nothing on there I want. But already numerous games I want from on this.

Insert joke about DoA girls' chests in 3D here; I'm too lazy to do it myself.

Wow, that looks amazing. It looks on par with DOA4, which was a 360 launch window title, so yeah it does look pretty damn good for a handheld. Nintendo probably told 3rd Party's to hold back all 3DS games from TGS, because they're having their own press event at the end of the month on September 29th. So they'll probably have a massive 3DS blowout then. Can't wait!

This is one of the reasons I'm buying a 3DS. I love the DOA series. It's my favorite fighting game series.

3DS is a powerhouse. Damn, that's a good lookin' handheld game right there.

I think it is now safe to say that the 3ds is not for cooking momma players.

I don't remember DOA having colorful effects with every hit.

Ironic that the series created by somebody who hates Tekken so much is aping one of the most recognizable aspects of that series.

Nice to know that the 3DS will have at least one major fighter.

Two, SSFIV 3DS has already been confirmed by Capcom. That is unless, you were referring to that.

That looks phenomenal for a handheld game. If every 3DS game has graphics on that level, sign me the fuck up.

Want this so bad. This and the 3DS Resi game have already sold me on the system.

Let's see how Team Ninja cranks this out without some key players. Good luck.

I'm pro-3DS and I'll definitely pick this up, but I still want a proper DoA5 on consoles.

Funny how 3DS isn't even out yet, games aren't close to completion and people are already complaining about the graphics.

Dear Team Ninja.

Make more than 2 game franchises for once.

Okay. Picture a mountaintop. Now picture someone saying "MEH!" and it echoing thousands of times.
